When the fiber laser beam contacts the surface, it interacts with the coating on the mold — but not the mold itself — and then cleans the mold surface by transforming the coating into vapor or dust that then flakes off. Photo Credit: Rocklin Mfg. When a mold is contaminated with rust, dirt, grease, oil or other substances, it can damage the injection molding process and harm the quality of the molded products.
Sound waves can reveal surface properties. Parameters such as surface or coating quality of components can be analyzed nondestructively using lasers and sensors. In research and some industrial laboratories, this laser-induced surface wave spectroscopy has already become an established measurement technology.
