Laser Cleaning

Laser cleaning systems provide an efficient way to remove rust, scale, old coatings, oil residues, and other contaminants from the surfaces of pipelines, storage tanks, valves, pump components, and similar equipment.
Automated laser system for cleaning the inner surface of pipes from radioactive contamination, rust, aged coatings and heavy contaminants.

The laser removes only the surface layer of oxides or paint without grinding away the base metal, so the original smoothness and dimensions of the part are preserved.​

High laser cleaning efficiency ensures that rust and contaminants are instantly vaporized, leaving a clean metal surface ready for subsequent processing and coating.

Advantages

No abrasives or chemicals required, so there is no secondary waste apart from the removed contaminants in the form of dust.
