The handheld laser rust remover can efficiently remove resin, oil stains, stains, dirt, rust, coating, plating, and paint on the surface of the workpiece, meeting the cleaning requirements of complex shapes and fine positioning in the industrial processing field, achieving a cleaner cleaning effect with higher cleanliness, and a higher overall cost. Low production efficiency. Mainly used in automobile manufacturing, mechanical processing, electronic processing, cultural relic restoration, mold industry, shipbuilding industry, food processing, petrochemical industry and other industries.

How handheld laser rust remover Works

handheld laser rust remover uses a machine that aims a laser pulse at high power onto the rusty surface of a material. The laser energy is absorbed by the organic material lying on the surface of the substrate while the non-organic substrate remains untouched.

The laser beam is passed over the surface until the preferred depth and area have been completely rid of the rust. At low flux, the laser energy from the beam ablates the surface while vaporizing the rust. At high flux, the laser energy converts the rust or other unwanted material to plasma. Both low and high flux get the job done, but their use depends on the type of surface in question.

Advantaged of hand held laser rust removal:

In addition to removing layers of contaminants without damaging the substrate, laser cleaning is ideal for capturing and containing hazardous materials — including coatings, lead paints, and asbestos. This means that it’s safer for the environment and creates no additional waste. Laser cleaning has a variety of uses, including:

· Welding and bonding treatments

· Coating preparation

· Nuclear decontamination

· Surface prep for NDI

Disadvantages of handheld laser rust cleaner

While there are many benefits to laser cleaning, it’s not the right solution for every product. This includes any general cleaning applications where media blasting or grinding are acceptable, and the laser strength is not needed. It also includes any complex geometries that inhibit your line of sight. While our laser solutions can be customized to work in most environments, hot and humid places with limited access are not ideal. Laser cleaning can be up to 15x more efficient than hand-abrasive methods for cleaning, but for general rust or non-hazardous coating removal that involves larger areas, other media blasting solutions perform faster.

Features of handheld laser rust remover:

1.High energy pulsed laser focusing on the surface of object to simulate plasma, continuous irradiation of high-energy plasma instantaneous formation and expansion,resulting in a series of tiny explosions, formating plasma blasting, finally achieve the relativel smooth corrosive layer of boject surface to physical blasting burst, and move through the high speed laser spot to form a plume that will clean the debris to complete the cleaning. Mainly used in metal rust.

2.High energy pulsed laser socusing on the surface of object,dirty rust and other irregular structure and dark surface absorpt the laser energy and plasma energy formated by metal surface, is instantaneous vaporization from the base metal. Mainly used in the mold cleaning and cultural relics repair and other industries.

3.For the paint and the surface of the chemical coating and special process, based on the surface and the base material has different absorption and damage threshold on laser, laser destruct the surface coating after focusing, after air contact, there are a series of complex photochemical reactions, oxidation, The final reaction product is in the form of gas discharge, the special mode of the laser below the master batch damage threshold, can peel off the coating, do not hurt the base material. Mainly used for paint removal and coating stripping
