Defense and Military Laser Cleaning Applications
While we serve a myriad of industries, we do the bulk of our work providing defense and military solutions. With our extensive experience in this field, we fully understand the sensitivity of defense projects as well as the common challenges faced by military bases when providing proper maintenance for equipment and vehicles.
At Adapt Laser, we are able to provide the laser cleaning units to allow our soldiers, airmen, marines, and sailors to maintain and operate ground equipment, electronics, armored vehicles, aircraft, ships and other items safely, effectively and into the future. In fact, our laser cleaners are so effective, Travis Air Force Base in California used our lasers in one of showcased the laser cleaning process in the video shown.
Whether you need corrosion or coating removal, deep cleaning, or restorations, our systems are designed to reduce the painful parts of maintenance and extend the lifespan of your military assets. In addition, laser technology can be faster, safer, and more efficient than traditional cleaning methods.

- Reduces worker exposure and PPE requirements
- Proven, reliable and low maintenance technology
- Environmentally friendly
Common Military & Defense Laser Cleaning Applications
If your group has a distinct need for laser cleanings, we are always willing to evaluate your unique application. With our on-site applications lab, we can test our entire portfolio of lasers, optics and sensors to find the right solution for you.
NDI Safe Cleaning
Traditional methods of inspecting stress points in welded joints of military equipment often involve using abrasives, grinding, or blasting. This poses a problem because it can change the shape of the metal surfaces or potentially mask issues. With these traditional methods, military organizations often miss micro-cracks and other stress defects that impact the integrity of the equipment.
Our laser technology provides the ability to clean without altering these defects — allowing for Non-Destructive Investigation (NDI) to work better. Inspecting stress points is part of normal maintenance but doing it without altering the surface of the substrate and removing coatings without abrasives allows equipment to stay functional longer and without fail. When the cleaning is done, there is no clean-up or expenses such as when blasting media is used.
