Laser cleaning technology

An ecological and precise alternative to traditional methods

Ablation principle

The laser selectively vaporizes contaminant layers without touching the underlying substrate.

How it works

Laser cleaning is based on controlled photonic ablation.

1

The beam is directed

A fiber optic laser generates a highly focused beam directed at the surface to be treated.

2

Energy absorption

The contaminant layer (rust, paint, soot...) absorbs the laser energy.

3

Controlled vaporization

The material to be removed is instantly vaporized or detached from the substrate.

4

Substrate remains intact

The underlying substrate is not affected. No abrasion, no chemical residue.

Method comparison

Laser cleaning outperforms traditional methods on all essential criteria.
