What Is Laser Cleaning?
Laser cleaning is an advanced, eco-friendly technology that uses focused laser beams to remove unwanted substances like rust, paint, and contaminants from various surfaces.This non-contact method ensures the underlying material remains undamaged, making it ideal for restoring everything from industrial equipment to delicate historical artifacts.

Why laser cleaning?
Laser cleaning is a non-destructive method for the removal of thin residue layers from ferrous and non ferrous metals as well as other hard surfaces.
By utilising infrared light, our highly trained team of technicians can selectively remove rust and other coatings without damaging the substrate and without using abrasive media or chemicals, we have the largest variety of laser cleaning machines in Southern California, allowing us to cater to all suitable industries and applications.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
When the laser beam is focused on the surface, it delivers a concentrated burst of energy. When the energy from the laser light interacts with contaminants that absorb its energy, two primary mechanisms occur. The contaminants or unwanted material will either vaporize and turn into a gas or the pressure of the interaction will cause particles to free from the surface. As the unwanted material vaporizes, we extract the particles from the surface, leaving it clean. The laser beam can be precisely controlled, allowing for selective cleaning of specific areas without affecting the surrounding material.
Laser ablation cleaning is used in various industries, such as manufacturing, conservation of artwork, and even in restoring historical artifacts. It offers advantages like non-contact cleaning, minimal damage to the underlying material, and the ability to clean intricate or delicate objects that would be difficult to clean by traditional methods.
Overall, laser ablation cleaning is a high-tech way of using laser energy to vaporize and remove unwanted material from surfaces, leaving them clean and undamaged.
