Electromobility is changing the automotive industry. From manufacturing to retail and distribution, e-mobility is creating a new generation of cars. But, with the assembly of batteries, housing components, and other e-mobility parts, the field of electromobility still faces a contaminant issue. It impacts formed aluminum sheet components before welding and can prevent sealing areas from […]
Typically, laser solutions absorb and remove contaminants that are impacting the efficiency, functionality, and lifespan of your product. They can also be used for pre- and post-weld treatments, hazardous coating removals, and more. But, can a laser that’s designed to provide a pristinely-cleaned surface area also roughen it? The answer is, yes, but with stipulations. How does it […]
Whether for commercial or military use, people rely on jets to get from point A to point B. A critical part that helps make that happen is the jet turbines or engines. That’s why it’s crucial that the parts are well constructed and bonded together. Any weak points can wear down with use and can […]
Products made from metal are meant to last longer and be more durable, but even the toughest ones have a breaking point. While it takes great force to bend metal — an amount of force that wouldn’t normally occur during operations — there are other circumstances that can impact your product. One such factor is […]
You can care for your products — such as your aircraft or heavy machinery — properly and carefully, but there are still some circumstances that can wear them down. Environmental factors like rain can start chemical reactions such as oxidation and rust on certain metals. Tools impacted by rust can break down more easily — […]
Laser cleaning — also known as laser ablation — removes contaminants from your products to help extend their lifespans, prepare them for bonding or welding, and eliminate hazardous materials. While laser solutions have a variety of uses, finding the right laser for your needs can be tricky. Do you need low-, mid-, or high-powered solutions? […]
Whether you’re considering a laser cleaning business or just aren’t sure if laser cleaning is right for your needs, there’s a lot to take into account. You need to know that whichever laser you invest in is going to produce the desired results. From optics to wattages, your product requires slightly different laser configurations or solutions to […]
Whether water has rusted the bulkhead of your aircraft or hazardous paint is beginning to chip from your equipment, you require a cleaning solution that is both safe and effective. Laser ablation uses precision cleaning to remove contaminants such as oil, rust, mold release agents, paint, and more — but how can you choose the right laser cleaner for […]
History isn’t always kind to items like historical artifacts and heirlooms. They rust, oxidize, begin to break down, and cleaning them to remove harsh contaminants without impacting the substrate is challenging. Even seemingly tough, coarse objects such as stones and tablets come with obstacles. Media blasting cleaning methods are out of the question, as the method is […]
Cleaning contaminants such as hazardous paints or rust can be difficult, and there are many things to consider — the safety of the environment and operators, what solution works best, and how the solution impacts your product. Blasting solutions are out of the question —why use a solution that’s just going to degrade your product […]
