FAQ
Can laser cleaning achieve the Sa 2.5 or Sa 3.0 standards required for ship hulls?
Yes. Our high-power continuous wave (CW) lasers (1500W-3000W) effectively remove heavy rust, anti-fouling paint, and marine growth, exposing the bare metal. By adjusting the scanning width and power, operators can easily achieve Sa 2.5 (Near White Metal) or even Sa 3.0 (White Metal) standards, ensuring perfect adhesion for new coating layers.
Will the laser damage the ship's steel plating or propeller surfaces?
No. Laser cleaning is a non-contact process. The laser energy is absorbed by the rust or paint/coatings but reflected by the substrate material. For sensitive parts like bronze propellers or precision valves, we recommend our Pulsed Laser series, which offers “cold” cleaning with zero thermal impact on the base material.
How does the cleaning speed compare to sandblasting?
While raw area coverage of sandblasting can be faster, laser cleaning offers superior overall efficiency. Laser cleaning requires zero preparation time (no masking needed), zero media cleanup (no tons of sand waste), and allows parallel work in the dry dock. A 3000W unit can clean heavy rust at approx 40-50m²/h, but the total project turnaround time is often shorter due to reduced setup and cleanup.
Ship hulls are high. How long is the fiber optic cable?
Our standard configuration comes with a 10m or 15m cable. However, for shipyard applications, we offer customized armored fiber cables up to 100 meters. This allows the main unit to stay on the ground or deck while the operator cleans high vertical areas or accesses deep cargo holds.
What are the power requirements? Do you support shipyard voltage standards?
Yes. We understand that shipyards and offshore platforms have specific voltage inputs. We can customize the machine for 380V, 440V, or 480V (3-phase) inputs to match your local grid or generator specifications
Is it difficult to operate? Do we need specialized technicians?
The machine is designed for “Plug and Play.” We provide a preset parameter library for common marine tasks (e.g., “Heavy Rust,” “Paint Removal,” “Propeller Cleaning”). A regular worker can master the operation with just 2-4 hours of training. No complex programming is required.
