Partial Decoating – Laser Cleaning

We offer precise partial de-coating solutions that eliminates the need for masking of difficult partial coating applications. When bare metal-to-metal contact is required for electrical continuity between parts, this laser process can save time, materials and enhance quality.
The laser does this by precisely removing coatings in the exact areas required, each and every time without having to apply and remove masking. Parts and surfaces fully coated with organic, chemically oxidized and anodized finishes can be efficiently processed this way.
When critical weld seams on painted parts/structures must be de-coated for inspection, the laser process provides a unique and highly effective method. The laser quickly removes coatings to expose possible defects without the need for chemicals, abrasives, power tools or other hand tools that cause surface damage and may even hide the problem areas.
