Rusting of metal products is an inevitable and common phenomenon. The most common cause is the oxidation of iron products after prolonged exposure to

air and oxygen, or the erosion of oxygen in water into oxides. If further use is required, the rust on the metal surface needs to be removed. The laser cleaning 

machine has launched a new generation of rust removal, paint removal, and oil removal projects, which is of great help to this industry. Laser cleaning 

machines have advantages that traditional cleaning methods do not possess and are gradually replacing them.

The laser cleaning machine mainly uses the instantaneous high-temperature corrosion generated by the laser beam on the surface of the product to melt

 surface substances such as rust, coatings, oil stains, etc.

It is a new technology based on the interaction effect between laser and matter. Unlike traditional mechanical cleaning, chemical cleaning, and ultrasonic 

cleaning (wet cleaning process), it does not require any CFC organic solvents that destroy the ozone layer, is pollution-free, noiseless, and harmless to human 

health and the environment. It is a truly green and environmentally friendly cleaning technology.

Laser cleaning machine suitable for precision parts cleaning, aerospace components, military industry, nuclear power industry, parts micro-processing, high 

fine cleaning, environmental cleaning methods, high precision industry cleaning, slide cleaning, shipyard parts cleaning, semiconductor processing, rollers, 

precision parts, welded welds.

Why use fiber laser cleaning machine?

1. Environmentally friendly cleaning: No chemical agents are used, and the waste after cleaning is solid and harmless powder, which can completely solve the

environmental pollution problem caused by chemical cleaning.

2. Low cleaning cost: The initial investment of a laser cleaning system is not low, but it can be used stably for a long time, with a long service life and low

operating costs. It is fast, efficient, and time-saving, and can quickly obtain investment returns. For long-term work, the cost is lower than traditional cleaning

methods.

3. Precise and accurate cleaning: Fiber laser cleaning machine is suitable for cleaning various dirt/paint/oil/oxide layers on metal or equipment surfaces.

 Compared with traditional chemical cleaning, it is an environmentally friendly cleaning method that does not emit pollutants.

4. It causes minimal damage to the metal surface and almost no damage to the substrate.

How to choose the best fiber laser cleaning machine for rust removal?

At present, there are two main types of mainstream laser cleaning machines: pulse laser cleaning machines and continuous laser cleaning machines.

The pulse laser cleaning machine can achieve zero damage to the substrate after cleaning dirt, and is suitable for cleaning products with high surface

requirements on the substrate; Continuous laser cleaning has high efficiency and is suitable for large-area cleaning, but it may cause some damage to the 

metal surface.

How to make a choice between the two lasers?

Actually, Continuous lasers is better in price than pulse laser cleaner. To bridge the gap in efficiency with pulsed lasers, continuous laser cleaner adopts high 

power lasers, but the heat input of high power continuous light is greater and the degree of damage to the substrate increases. Therefore, there is a 

fundamental difference between the two in application scenarios. Application scenarios with high precision, requiring strict control of substrate temperature

 rise and requiring no damage to the substrate, such as molds, are recommended for choosing pulsed lasers. For some large steel structures, pipelines, etc., 

due to the large volume of heat dissipation fast, the substrate damage requirements are not high, then you can choose continuous laser cleaning machine.
