Laser Cleaning of Metal and Rust/Corrosion is essential for preserving the surface texture and shape of the objects being cleaned. Laser metal cleaning has a wide range of applications across industries such as shipbuilding, construction, and renovation. Rust removal is the most common use of laser cleaning, where metal parts and iron-containing materials are cleaned of oxidation without damaging the underlying material.
It is important to note that most metal oxides, not just iron oxide, can be removed with laser cleaning. Utilizing state-of-the-art laser rust removal machines, this method outperforms traditional techniques like sandblasting and chemical treatments in terms of efficiency and environmental impact in many cases. However, if the rust layer is too thick, a two-step cleaning process may be applied.
