Repair of bearing seats - Mobile Laser Cladding

The bearing seats of both rudders of a cargo ship were damaged and were repaired on site in dry dock. First, the bearing seats were pre-spindled to create a metallically clean and damage-free surface. The surface was then reconditioned to the dimensions of the original contour.
