Nowadays, part repair technology is gaining more interest from military and industries
due to the benefit of cost reducing as well as time and energy saving. Traditionally, part
repair is done in the repair department using welding process. The limitations of the
traditional welding process are becoming more and more noticeable when the accuracy
and reliability are required. Part repair process has been developed utilizing a hybrid
manufacturing system, in which the laser aided deposition and CNC cutting processes are
integrated. Part repair software is developed in order to facilitate the users. The system
and the software elevate the repair process to the next level, in which the accuracy,
reliability, and efficiency can be achieved. The concept of repair process is presented in
this paper. Verification and experimental results are also discussed.Mechanical Engineerin
