Laser Ablation for Paint and Rust Removal
Laser ablation presents a precise and efficient method for removing both paint and rust from objects. The process leverages a highly focused laser beam to vaporize the unwanted material, leaving the underlying material largely unharmed. This method is particularly beneficial for restoring delicate or intricate items where traditional techniques may cause damage.
- Laser ablation can be applied to a wide range of materials, including metal, wood, and plastic.
- It is a non-contact process, minimizing the risk of surfacemarring .
- The process can be controlled precisely, allowing for the removal of specific areas or layers of material.
