Laser cleaning enters the era of automation

As a green and efficient cleaning method, laser cleaning is being accepted by more and more industries, and is gradually replacing traditional cleaning methods such as sandblasting and pickling. At present, the cleaning equipment on the market is mainly hand-held laser cleaning equipment, which is small in size, convenient in operation and moderate in price, and is welcomed by many enterprises!

However, there are still some large enterprises and special industries that require a higher degree of automation in order to improve production and processing efficiency, and such automatic laser cleaning equipment requires the combination of laser processing equipment manufacturers and laser light source enterprises to meet the application needs of different industries, for the industry and Customers conduct customized research and development. It provides higher requirements for the R&D strength and cooperation of processing equipment manufacturers and laser light source enterprises.

Laser cleaning enters the era of automation

After several months of research and development, the first domestic pipe laser cleaning equipment developed by HGTECH and equipped with Raycus 1000W special pulse laser for cleaning was officially launched. For heavy-duty pipes with rust and stains attached to the surface, through the action of laser, the surface rust and substances are instantly vaporized to achieve the cleaning effect. A pipe with a length of 6m and a diameter of 60mm, the traditional cleaning method is mechanical and manual grinding, which requires at least 2 workers to spend more than 2 hours. With this automatic cleaning equipment, it only takes less than 10 minutes. The maximum positioning speed of the equipment is 90m/min. At the same time, the equipment has the function of automatic loading and unloading, and the degree of automation is extremely high. It is understood that the equipment will be sent to customers in South America this month.

Deng Jiake, general manager of HGTECH's laser advanced manufacturing equipment business, introduced: "Round tubes, square tubes, rectangular tubes, elliptical tubes, special-shaped tubes and other profiles can be cleaned by high-speed, high-quality lasers. Pipe fittings weighing several hundred kilograms, all It is difficult to imagine using manual hand-held cleaning, and the overturning of pipe fittings is a big problem. Heavy-duty pipe processing industries such as prefabricated buildings, sports venues, marine equipment, and 5G towers will require a lot of cleaning of such slender materials.”

Raycus' special laser for cleaning continues to lead in sales

In the first half of 2021, the sales of Raycus laser cleaning lasers increased by more than 170% year-on-year. With advanced R&D strength, mature technical reserves, and rich industry experience, Raycus Laser joined the top domestic laser processing equipment manufacturers to continuously expand laser cleaning in Applications in various industries, and at the same time continue to promote the development of automated and intelligent cleaning.

At present, Raycus' special pulsed lasers for cleaning and related supporting products have been widely used in 3C electronics, tire molds, high-speed rail wheelsets and body, ships and aerospace related cleaning applications. The efficiency, effect and stability of cleaning have been highly recognized by customers. When it comes to laser cleaning, you basically think of Raycus Laser. In the future, Raycus will continue to cooperate with partners in various industries to promote the industrialization of laser cleaning and help high-end manufacturing in China!
