What is laser cleaning?
A laser cleaner delivers focused energy to a surface, breaking the bond between the base material and a contaminant like rust, oil, stains, or coatings. Thin contaminants vaporize instantly; thicker coatings like paint soften and lift away with a light pass of a brush or scraper.
Why choose laser cleaning?
Non-contact — undisturbed surfaces, ideal for carvings, molds, and detailed profiles where blasting or sanding would erode or scratch.
Environmentally friendly — nothing to dispose of but the dust removed from the part; no chemicals or spent blasting media.
No disassembly needed — most parts can be cleaned in place, with nothing abrasive left behind to reach bearings or gears.
Precise and controlled — tuned to differentiate the coating from the base material, so the base is never damaged.
Nothing consumed but electricity — no chemicals, media, or dry ice, and parts are immediately ready for painting.
