Laser cleaning and material processing rely on two main types of laser operation: pulse wave (PW) lasers and continuous wave (CW) lasers. Each has unique characteristics, making them suitable for different applications.
Pulse wave lasers operate by emitting short, high-energy bursts of laser light at controlled intervals. These pulses deliver intense power over a short duration, allowing for precise material removal without excessive heat buildup.
Ideal for delicate surfaces where excessive heat could cause damage.
Reduces the risk of warping or altering the material.
Effectively removes rust, paint, and contaminants without affecting the base material.
Uses less power over time compared to CW lasers.
Continuous wave lasers emit a steady, uninterrupted beam of laser energy. These lasers provide consistent power output, making them ideal for applications requiring contaminant penetration and sustained heating.
Delivers strong, consistent energy for fast processing.
Ideal for cutting, welding, and deep material penetration.
Effective for thick or high-density materials.
Both laser types play a critical role in modern manufacturing, restoration, and industrial cleaning. Selecting the right laser depends on the material, desired outcome, and level of precision required.
