Why is laser rust removal so expensive?

19/03/2024

Laser rust removal is expensive for several reasons:

  • High technology R&D costs: Laser rust removal technology involves the development, production and integration of lasers. Including advanced optical, electronic and mechanical technologies. These require substantial R&D investment, accumulation of patented technologies and support from a team of senior engineers. So the initial R&D cost is high.
  • High cost of laser source: The key component of a laser rust removal machine is the laser source. Especially the high-performance fiber laser, which can provide high power, narrow beam and precise control suitable for rust removal. Fiber lasers themselves are expensive to manufacture. And the higher the power, the more expensive the laser.
  • Precision Manufacturing and Assembly: In addition to the core laser. The laser rust removal machine also includes components such as precision optics, a control system, a cooling system, and high-precision motion platforms. They require precision machining and assembly, increasing the manufacturing cost of the overall equipment.

  • Premium for consumable-free and environmental advantages: laser rust removal is consumable-free during use, which reduces running costs. However the initial purchase cost includes the value of this long-term environmental and economic. That is, the one-time investment is higher, but the long-term cost of use is lower.
  • Safety and compliance requirements: Laser descaling equipment needs to meet stringent safety and environmental standards. This includes not only the design and manufacture of the equipment itself but also the necessary protective measures and waste disposal systems. This increases the overall cost of the equipment.
  • After-sales maintenance and technical support: the purchase of a laser rust removal machine also includes after-sales service and professional technical support. This part of the hidden cost will also be reflected in the equipment selling price. To ensure that the user in the use of the process can get timely and effective technical services.

In summary, the laser rust removal equipment is expensive for a variety of reasons. Including the high-tech content of the R & D and manufacturing costs. But also contains the later use of safety, environmental protection and technical added value and other factors. With the progress of technology and market penetration, the cost of laser rust removal is likely to gradually reduce with the scale effect and technology iteration.
