Laser Ablation to Improve Bond Adhesion

Previously used to clean mold surfaces in the composites industry, a modified laser system is used to improve bond adhesion on composite parts. Replacing hand sanding, the robotic laser-ablation program reduces labor, benefits industrial hygiene (no dust, self-contained system), improves consistency and repeatability, shortens cycle time, eliminates perishable items (e.g. masks, sandpaper, and wipes), and lowers cost an average of 15%.  The system's flexibility permits program path, angle of attack, and energy level to be customized for each part's unique material and geometry.
