Laser cleaning of wooden furniture is a non-contact cleaning method that uses laser energy to remove dirt, paint, coatings, and oxide layers from the surface of wood without damaging the texture and structure of the wood itself. Laser cleaning machines can operate very precisely without abrading the surface of the wood, and laser cleaning is less damaging to the wood than traditional sanding or scraping methods. In addition, laser cleaning is an environmentally friendly cleaning method because it does not produce hazardous waste or fumes.
The application of laser cleaning technology on wooden furniture includes cleaning the surface of wooden crafts, repairing and refinishing antique furniture, cultural relics, and historical buildings. Before the woodworking and painting process, the laser cleaning machine can remove grease, dust and other contaminants from the surface of the wood, providing a clean substrate for subsequent painting, bonding and processing operations.
However, the effect of laser cleaning on wooden furniture also depends on the parameter settings of the laser, such as power, speed and pulse length. If the laser parameters are set incorrectly, it may cause thermal damage or burns to the wood. Therefore, when using laser to clean wooden furniture, it should be tested in an inconspicuous area first to ensure that no damage will be caused to the furniture.
In general, laser cleaning is an effective method for fine cleaning of wooden furniture surfaces, and it can remove a variety of stains without damaging the wood itself. As long as the laser parameters are set correctly and appropriate precautions are taken, laser cleaning can be safely used for cleaning and restoration of wooden furniture.
