Depainting with High Power Lasers

aser Methods, the methodologies used are based on an ablation removal method, being subject to thermal diffusion as the whole volume of the material removed needs to be vaporised.

Laser rust removal is an entirely different process than paint removal. Typical steel rust is a combination of iron oxides such as ferric oxide, Fe2O3, ferrous oxide, FeO, and magnetite Fe3O4. These are partially transparent to NIR radiation, resembling semiconductors. However, rust is far from being a homogenous or continuous layer.

If you’re a business or a project manager thinking about purchasing your first laser cleaning system, you might think the task of learning about lasers while deciding on what laser to purchase can be very daunting.

In the past decade, laser cleaning and paint removal have become a hot subject in a variety of industries.

With a combination of high average power, high energy pulses, and high repetition rates our laser systems offer some of the fastest laser paint removal available.

The new Vulcan handheld tool from Powerlase is compact and lightweight, and weighs just under 2kg. This makes it easy to reach through openings and confined spaces, this weight allows users to clean for longer periods compared to other heavier handhelds in the industry.

Powerlase is an innovative, independent, high power laser design and manufacturing company, focused on powerful nanosecond high energy Diode Pumped Solid State Lasers and Pulsed Fiber Lasers.

An Introduction to High Pulse Energy, kW Average Power Nanosecond Lasers Enable Breakthrough in Rapid Coating Removal

Single pulse detachment is challenging on the thick coatings used in marine vessels. An ablation-detachment hybrid process, however, is able to produce high-efficiency removal.

Paint removal and rust removal in marine applications can be done in a number of ways. Each method of removal must balance the energy usage, coverage rate, and removal rate. In this example, we will look at how different methods of removal balance these areas.

Laser cleaning is a subject that has taken internet media by storm in the last 3 years. Videos of laser cleaning anything, from nuclear reactor components to ovens and dishes are posted online on a daily basis.

Across the globe, historical structures have been subject to natural degradation from the build-up of biological growth on surfaces of stone and other masonry.
