Laser cleaning is fast becoming the go-to cleaning solution for businesses around the world.  Automating other laser processes is well established and replacing a welding head or a cutting head with a laser cleaning head is a natural evolution of laser technology.  Other benefits include;

  • Increased safety
  • Better surface presentation of cleaned area
  • More efficient
  • Cost-effective
  • zero carbon footprint
  • Faster

What We Offer

Here at LaserAge, we offer on-site cleaning of contaminated materials, parts, and moulds for a range of industries and production lines. For smaller parts and moulds, we also offer off-site cleaning at our cleaning facility.   The laser pulses will remove rust and other contaminants from intricate areas of the base material, and we are professionally trained to help meet your cleaning needs.

Whether you need mould cleaning, paint removal, or surface cleaning, laser cleaning machines are perfect for use, and by hiring us, you know that you are in safe hands. Our services are bespoke so get in touch for further information.

How long does the process take?

Laser cleaning is a faster and more efficient method of cleaning than other techniques. The length of time required to conduct the laser cleaning varies depending on the task itself. Small, precision aerospace parts can be processed in a short time frame with our complete laser systems, compared to blast chambers.

For an accurate estimate of the length of time, our team of experts are on hand to help. Please contact the team today to find out more about our services.

FAQs

What is laser cleaning?
Laser cleaning is a process used to remove contaminants such as rust, paint, and oxide from metal surfaces, in addition to stone and other materials. It is a highly efficient and non-abrasive type of cleaning. By directing nanosecond-length pulses of laser light towards a surface, you can remove contaminants without any damage to the metal surface underneath.
Do laser cleaners really work?
Yes. The nanosecond-length pulses of laser light are directed towards a surface, transforming the contaminants into a gas or causing the particles to release from the surface upon which they have adhered. It is more effective and safer than many traditional cleaning techniques and is especially efficient within technical industries such as aerospace, automotive, and military and defence.
Can a laser remove rust?
Laser cleaning is useful at removing a range of contaminants from a surface, including rust. Laser rust removal is a type of laser cleaning which removes rust without damaging the surface underneath, making it useful in many industries such as automotive and aerospace. Surface preparation is the ideal way to deliver surface cleaning without damaging the base layer.
Will laser cleaning damage my material?
Laser cleaning provides the user with a precise cleaning method to remove contaminants without damaging the underlying material. The nanosecond-length pulses of laser light allow for targeted contaminant removal, with virtually no thermal effect on the surface you are working upon. It is safer both for operators and the environment than traditional media blasting.
What can I use laser cleaning for?
Laser cleaning is used across many industries including but not limited to aerospace, defence and military, automotive, energy and power generation, oil and gas, heritage site restoration, stone cleaning, food manufacturing, and space exploration. It can remove a range of contaminants from surfaces, such as rust, coating, and grease. Through laser cleaning, you can restore parts without damaging them.
