Can Lasers Remove Rust and Other Contaminants from Metal?

Jul 23, 2024

 

Laser, an acronym for light amplification of light emitted through excited radiation, is a beam of light that is highly monochromatic, directional and coherent.

 

Application of laser in metal surface treatment


In the field of metal surface treatment, laser technology has gradually emerged with its unique advantages. Laser can remove rust and other pollutants on the metal, improve the surface finish of the metal surface, thus improving the corrosion resistance and aesthetics of the metal.

 

Principles of Laser Removal of Contaminants from Metal Surfaces


The main principle of laser removal of metal surface pollutants is to use the laser's high energy to instantly localize the heating of the metal surface, so that the pollutants instantly melted, evaporated or burned, so as to achieve the purpose of removal. Laser removal process has no contact, no abrasion, no pollution, high efficiency.

 

Application cases of laser removal of metal surface pollutants


Laser removal of metal surface pollutants has a wide range of prospects in practical applications. For example, in the fields of steel construction, ships and machinery, laser can effectively remove rust and other pollutants, prolong the service life of metal equipment and improve production efficiency.


Laser technology has a wide range of application prospects in the field of metal surface treatment. By removing rust and other pollutants on the metal by laser, the surface finish of the metal can be improved, so as to improve the corrosion resistance and aesthetics of the metal. With the continuous development of laser technology, the future application in the field of metal surface treatment will be more extensive.
