Cladding Removal is used to selectively remove a layer of material from clad or multi-layer sheet metal. This is particularly important when sheets consist of different grades of steel, for example a carbon steel base material with a stainless steel or corrosion-resistant cladding layer.
The main purpose is to remove the cladding from a defined area while preserving the underlying material. This creates a clean surface suitable for subsequent welding, machining or other manufacturing operations.
Mechanical Cladding Removal provides precise and controlled material removal and eliminates the need for extensive manual grinding. This results in higher productivity, consistent quality and significantly reduced operator workload.


For large plates and long edges, N.KO Machines technology can provide substantial time and cost savings, while ensuring a repeatable removal depth and consistent preparation of the material for subsequent operations.
