Laser Cleaning Introduction Application Note

Laser cleaning technology refers to the use of high-energy laser beams to irradicate the surface of the workpiece of any dirt, rust, or unwanted coatings on the surface. The layer evaporates or peels off instantly, and effectively removes the surface layer or the coating of the object at high speed, thereby achieving a cleaner surface.

It is a new technology based on the interactions and effects of laser and matter. This is different from any traditional mechanical cleaning methods that involve chemical and ultrasonic cleaning (wet cleaning process). It doesn’t need any broken CFC organic solvents that deplete the ozone layer. It doesn’t pollute the environment and emits no sound. It is also not harmful to the human body.

Advantages of Laser Cleaning

1. Laser cleaning is an environmentally friendly cleaning method that does not need to use any chemicals or cleaning fluids that might harm the environment.
2. It is a non-contact cleaning method that effectively protects the workpiece.
3. Laser cleaning can remove different types of pollutants on the surfaces of various materials, achieving cleaning that cannot be done by conventional methods. It can also selectively clean the pollutants on the surface of the material without damaging the original surface.
4. Laser cleaning is highly efficient. It cuts down the cleaning process significantly and can be integrated into robots with a high degree of automation.
