Choose a pulsed laser cleaner if you need high-precision cleaning of molds, electronic components, or cultural relics with minimal substrate damage.
Choose a continuous laser cleaner for large-scale rust removal on steel structures, ship plates, or pipelines where surface finish tolerance is higher.
Pulsed lasers deliver high peak power in very short pulses, vaporizing contaminants instantly with minimal heat transfer to the substrate. This results in very low surface roughness and almost no substrate damage, making it ideal for precision cleaning of molds, electronics, and delicate surfaces.
Continuous laser cleaners are suitable for large-area, thick-substrate cleaning, including:
With high average power (often over 1000W) and continuous output, they enable fast cleaning over large areas.
Pulsed laser causes less substrate damage. Its short pulses create a very small heat-affected zone, minimizing melting or deformation. Continuous laser can lead to heat buildup, potentially causing micro-melting or increased surface roughness.
At the same average power, pulsed laser cleaning is more efficient, especially for thin contaminants like paint or light rust.
For very large areas with thick rust or coatings and lower surface finish requirements, continuous laser can still be effective by using higher power.
A pulsed laser cleaner is recommended. Its precise energy control and minimal heat input prevent deformation or perforation of thin substrates. Continuous laser is not recommended for thin materials due to heat buildup.
