Laser Cleaning for Wood Without Damaging Grain or Finish

Laser cleaning for wood is a selective, non-contact surface preparation method that can remove paint, varnish, soot, dirt, adhesive residue, and mold stains while preserving grain and finish, but only within a validated process window. Wood is anisotropic and heat-sensitive, so parameters must be developed for each species, moisture content, grain direction, and coating type….

Laser Barcode Marking That Stays Readable Through Harsh Production Cycles

Laser barcode marking must be engineered for durability, not just initial scanability. In harsh production cycles, marks face abrasion, chemicals, heat, cleaning, oil, and repeated handling, any of which can reduce contrast or distort code geometry. A robust mark depends on controlled contrast, correct cell size and quiet zone, stable material interaction, and a process…
