Sep 09, 2021

Now the market is flooded with various laser cleaning equipment, but many of them are non-professional laser cleaning equipment, which is mainly reflected in the hand-held cleaning head.

So when we choose laser cleaning equipment, how should we choose a suitable hand-held cleaning head?

First , we need ensure the stability of the handheld cleaning head for long time working;

Second, the weight of the handheld cleaning head should be moderate;

Finally the maximum laser cleaning beam width.


Recently, many customers told me how small and light the hand-held cleaning heads of competitors are, and they want to try.

I asked them to show the hand-held cleaning head of my competitors. After identification, it was found that the other parties was using non-professional laser cleaning heads. Most of them were directly changed from the welding heads of the currently popular hand-held laser welding machines. Not a professional laser cleaning head.

Such non-professional cleaning heads have relatively large defects in the design (if you want to know the specific defects, you can email me), so it will cause dust to easily enter during use, resulting in a high failure rate, and the amount of consumables (protective lenses) Large, and the maximum laser cleaning width is 50mm, so the cleaning effect is very limited.


So in response to customer questions, combined with my experience, understanding and research on laser cleaning, today I will tell you about the types of laser cleaning heads currently on the market and how to choose a suitable hand-held laser cleaning head.

According to the way laser acts on the surface of product,  the way the laser emits light:

It is divided into focusing lens mode (professional version) and laser straight-out mode (non-professional version,laser directly acts on the surface of the object through the mirror).


According to the laser reflection mode ;

It is divided into single reflecting mirror mode and double reflecting mirrors mode (professional version, which can realize multiple cleaning modes)


According to the angle of laser emission:

It is divided into zero degree, ninety degrees, and some companies will choose other emission angles, such as 60 degrees, etc.


So combined with the 3 points that should pay attention to when choosing a suitable hand-held laser cleaning head I just said, you will soon find that the cleaning head that uses the focusing lens mode and the double reflecting mirrors mode is the most suitable and professional hand-held laser cleaning. head.

As for the laser emission angle, you can choose the one that suits you for the main cleaning application.


The above remarks are only personal understanding of laser cleaning and suggestions to customers, for reference only, and not aimed at any competitor.
