Laser Cleaning
Laser beams can be generated using a variety of methods, such as solid-state, gas, or diode lasers.
Laser Cleaning Products
Choosing the right laser cleaning machine depends on your specific application. We offer two main types of laser cleaning machines, each suited for different cleaning needs:
- Pulse Laser Cleaning Machines:
- Ideal for precision cleaning of various metal surfaces and some non-metallic substrates like ceramics and glass.
- Best for removing rust, paint, coatings, oil stains, and oxide films.
- Suitable for smaller, more detailed cleaning tasks such as cleaning welds, removing oxide films before welding, or cleaning hard-to-reach parts.
- Power range: 100-1000W
- Features ultra-light cleaning head for flexible operation and precise cleaning efficiency.
- Continuous Wave Laser Cleaning Machines:
- Best for large-scale cleaning of metal surfaces, capable of replacing shot blasting methods.
- Ideal for removing extensive corrosion, paint, scale, and oil stains from large steel structures.
- Suitable for cleaning entire machinery, pipelines, or steel frames before painting.
- Features high power efficiency, telephoto depth, and anti-shake design for heavy-duty cleaning tasks.
Consider these factors when choosing:
- Scale of your cleaning task (small/precise vs. large-scale)
- Type of contaminants you’re removing
- Surface material you’re cleaning
- Required cleaning precision
- Mobility needs (our machines come with wheels for flexible movement)
For specific applications:
- If you need to clean gears, weld seams, or remove oil, consider our Pulse Laser Cleaning Machines.
- For derusting large steel structures or stripping steel plates, our Continuous Wave Laser Cleaning Machines would be more suitable.
We recommend contacting our team of experts to discuss your specific needs. We can provide personalized recommendations based on your unique requirements and potentially arrange a demonstration to ensure you select the most appropriate machine for your application.
Certification is recommended but not required. It is a best practice that can boost credibility and demonstrate commitment to industry standards.
