A Ultimate Guide To Laser Cleaner For Beginners

Laser cleaning Rust Removal is an effective and efficient method to remove rust and oxide layers from the surface of metal materials. The laser with higher energy density interacts with specific substances, and the force generated by energy conversion overcomes the bonding force between the material to be cleaned and the substrate, and through the process of light peeling, vaporization, ablation, plasma impact, vibration, etc., the contaminants are separated from the material surface to achieve the purpose of cleaning, and the object to be cleaned is not damaged or the damage is controlled to the minimum.

In the high-end manufacturing industry, in order to ensure the quality of the industrial products during electroplating, phosphating, spraying, welding and assembly, it is necessary to remove the dirt, grease, dust, rust and other contaminants on the surface of the product. With high surface cleaning requirements, laser cleaning technology came into being. Laser cleaning machine is considered to be the most reliable and effective surface treatment technology due to its cleaning characteristics such as no force, no chemical reaction, no thermal effect and suitable for various materials.

 

Laser Cleaning Machine Applications

Applicable Materials

In the field of industrial applications, laser cleaning objects are divided into two parts: the substrate and the cleaning object. The substrate mainly includes the surface contamination layer of various metals, semiconductor wafers, ceramics, magnetic materials, plastics, and optical components. The cleaning objects mainly include facing In the industrial field, rust removal, paint removal, oil removal, film/oxidation removal, and resin, glue, dust and slag removal are widely used.

Applicable Industries

The research of laser cleaning technology started in the mid-1980s, but it did not really enter industrial production until the early 1990s. It has achieved good results in mold cleaning, material surface treatment, large-scale equipment and precision machinery, etc. application. In addition, European countries generally retain a large number of historical relics and ancient buildings. Many churches, castles, universities, museums, sculptures, etc. have hundreds or even thousands of years of history. Europeans have paid great attention to the protection and restoration of these "antiques". Laser cleaning technology has been used for the restoration and decontamination of cultural relics.

Microelectronics Field

Semiconductor components, microelectronic devices, memory templates, silicon templates, etc. to remove particles and component pins to remove oxides.

Cultural Relic Protection

Stone carvings, bronzes, glass, paper, oil paintings, sheepskin scrolls and murals, etc.

Mold Cleaning

Rubber molds, composite molds, metal molds, etc.

Surface Treatment

Hydrophilic treatment, surface roughening, pre-treatment before welding.

Paint Stripping & Rust Removal

Fully automated laser paint and rust removal systems for aircraft, ships, weaponry, bridges, iron towers, etc.

Precise paint removal of precision parts: aircraft parts, electrical products (instead of etching), etc.

Others

Urban graffiti, printing rollers, degreasing of industrial parts of precision machinery, cleaning of building exterior walls, nuclear pipelines and other dangerous industries.

How Much Does A Laser Cleaning Machine Cost?

The final important factor in selecting a suitable laser cleaning machine is the price of the laser cleaners. This machine’s budget typically depends on the size, power, and technology that comes with the laser cleaning machine. There are hundreds of laser makers presenting their creations in the laser market. You might find their products expensive or cheap. It is wise to check the process and machine parameters in this case. Considering those parameters with different brands, you can ultimately know which one would be the best option. 

For pulsed laser cleaning machines, there are 100W/200W/300W/500W options, ranging in price from $10500 to $71500.

For continuous laser cleaning machines, there are 1000W/1500W/2000W options, ranging in price from $7400 to $26900.

When the laser generator type is the same, the higher the power, the faster the laser rust removal speed and the finer the effect. Of course, the price is also more expensive.

 

Laser Cleaning Machine Features & Advantages

1 High efficiency

Under the action of high-temperature energy, the deposits instantly vaporize and evaporate off the surface of the object, and the time required is very short. The traditional cleaning methods, such as ultrasonic cleaning, can only be cleaned after preheating and cooling, which takes a long time.

 

  2 More environmentally friendly

Laser cleaning is a "green" cleaning method that does not need to use any chemicals and cleaning fluids. The cleaned waste is basically solid powder, small in size, easy to store, recyclable, no photochemical reaction and no pollution . It can easily solve the environmental pollution problem caused by chemical cleaning. Often a single exhaust fan can solve the problem of waste generated by laser cleaning.

 

  3 Low cost

Laser cleaning is fast, efficient, and time-saving; although the purchase of a laser cleaning system has a high initial investment, the cleaning system can be used stably for a long time, with low operating costs, and more importantly, it can be easily automated.

 

  4 More convenient

Laser cleaning can remove various types of contaminants on the surface of various materials to achieve a cleanliness that cannot be achieved by conventional cleaning. It can also selectively clean the contaminants on the surface of the material without damaging the surface of the material.

 

  5 Good results

The traditional cleaning method is often contact cleaning, which has a mechanical force on the surface of the cleaning object, damages the surface of the object or the cleaning medium adheres to the surface of the object to be cleaned, resulting in secondary pollution. The non-abrasive, non-contact, and non-thermal effects of laser cleaning will not damage the substrate, making these problems easy to solve.

 

6 Convenient control

The laser can be transmitted through optical fiber and cooperate with the robot, it is convenient to realize long-distance operation, and can clean the parts that are not easy to reach by traditional methods. You can choose the corresponding pulse frequency, energy and wavelength according to the material at will to achieve better results.

 

7 High security

Long-distance operation, no harmful substances and gases. Ensure the safety of operators

 

8 No wear

The cleaning process is non-contact and will not cause any wear on the surface of the base metal.

 

How to choose the right Laser cleaning machine for your business

 There are currently two types of laser cleaners in the market in the world. No matter you purchase it from China or other countries.

One is CW fiber laser cleaning machine

Second one is Pulse laser cleaning machine 

CW fiber laser cleaning machine use handheld clean head with continuous laser source. 

The advantage of CW cleaning machine is that the clean speed is fast and the clean head is light. High cost performance。

If you have low requirements for laser cleaning and only remove rust or thin paint of stainless steel , mild steel and iron, CW laser cleaning machine can meet the requirements.

CW laser cleaning machine power support 1000W 1500W 2000W 3000W , the laser source you can choose Raycus, Max JPT and IPG brand.

Pulse laser cleaning machine with pulse laser sourcce and galvo clean head.

If you have high-value products need clean that must be use pulsed laser cleaning machine system.
