The Development Status and Prospect of Laser Cleaning Industry

Laser cleaning technology has been promoted and applied in Europe for several years, and products are already available. However, my country has just started, mainly because the investment of laser equipment is expensive and the general application is still difficult. The research of laser cleaning technology and the development of equipment in China basically follow the development of foreign countries. Although some achievements have been made in a short period of time, there is still a big gap compared with foreign countries.

In 2010, the Laser Fusion Center of China Institute of Engineering Physics took the lead in developing laser cleaning equipment in China, and successfully applied it to Yungang Grottoes, stone walls, stone statues, murals and other cultural relics. In the next few years, the number of papers on laser cleaning technology in domestic scientific research institutions has gradually increased, and the industry's attention to laser cleaning technology has gradually increased. Many companies try to develop laser cleaning equipment.

As a green and efficient cleaning technology, laser cleaning technology has significant economic benefits and broad market prospects. If we can use the existing laser technology to develop supporting laser cleaning equipment and put it into production to realize industrialization, we believe that with the reduction of laser cost, laser cleaning technology will be gradually promoted. Technological innovation and substitution can reduce pollution sources from the source and truly promote the implementation of environmental protection work.
