The method also includes activating the reactive layer with a scanning laser. A component, such as a gas turbine engine component, includes a substrate, a thermal barrier coating and a reactive layer. The thermal barrier coating is deposited on at least a portion of the substrate. The reactive layer is deposited on at least a portion of the thermal barrier coating. The reactive layer has predetermined CMAS reaction kinetics activated by laser scanning.

The disclosure discloses a method for reinforcing a rail by laser and auxiliary heat source efficient hybrid cladding. The laser and the auxiliary heat source simultaneously apply on a region to be cladded of a rail surface. The laser serves as a main heat source to enable simultaneous and rapid fusion of an added metal powder and partial substrate material in the rail surface to form a molten pool. The auxiliary heat source moves with the laser heat source in the same direction at the same speed, and performs synchronous preheating and/or post-heating on the laser molten pool, the heat-affected zone and the surface layer of the rail substrate to reduce the temperature gradient, thereby reducing the cooling rate, and avoiding martensite transformation and cracking in the heat-affected zone.

Disclosed are a gear product having an enhance deposition surface and a deposition system for manufacturing the gear product. The gear product having a reinforced deposition surface according to the present disclosure includes: teeth in which valleys and crests are successively famed along an outer or inner circumference of a cylindrical body having a central rotation shaft; and a reinforced deposition layer, which is formed by radiating a laser beam in a coaxial nozzle system to be directed to the teeth and injecting powdered materials to be in contact with a radiation axis of the laser beam around the radiated laser beam such that the powdered materials are melted and integrated with a surface of the teeth. According to the present disclosure, a reinforced corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant deposition layer famed on a gear product is formed through a coaxial nozzle system in which powdered materials, which are injected so as to be in contact with the radiation axis of a laser beam radiated towards teeth around the radiated laser beam, is melted by the laser beam so as to be deposited on the surface of the teeth. Thus, it is possible to freely and finely control the laser beam power, the rotational speed of the gear, and the type and the injection amount of powdered materials according to the shape and size of the crests and valleys (teeth), and the physical properties of the raw material constituting the gear product, so that a deposition layer, optimized to the teeth having various shapes and physical properties, can be uniformly and precisely formed.
