HOW IT WORKS
By manipulating the laser flux, its wavelength and its pulse length, the amount of material that is being removed by a single laser pulse can be controlled with extreme precision.
Industrial laser cleaning is a process of clearing away undesired material from a solid surface by irradiating it with a laser beam. By absorbing the energy of the laser beam, the targeted material is heated very quickly, making it evaporate or sublimate. As the surface below does not absorb any energy, it stays untouched. By manipulating the laser flux, its wavelength and its pulse length, the amount of material that is being removed by a single laser pulse can be controlled with extreme precision. Making laser cleaning equally suitable for rapid and deep rust removal as for removing only one thin layer of paint, without damaging the base coat.
LASER CLEANING
Traditional cleaning and material removal methods, such as chemical and abrasive processing, are technically and environmentally unviable for the stringent cleaning requirements.
Plastic service offers automated laser cleaning solutions from removing contaminants like rust, oxide and paint from metals to the restoration of natural stone, oil removal, de-coating and even labeling and engraving.
