What is Laser Cleaning?
Laser cleaning is the process of removing undesired material from a solid surface with the aid of a laser (a beam of focused condensed light). The laser is a safe, variable power unit which can be precisely manipulated in order to clean challenging surfaces without water, chemicals or abrasive materials. The laser leaves the existing irregular or flat substrates like welds or gasket surfaces in their original state.
