Laser Photonics Corporation announced that it received an order for its CleanTech LPC-500-CTHD laser cleaning system from Komatsu through LPC's Japanese distributor. Komatsu will use LPC's CleanTech system at its technology development, demonstration and promotion facility in Japan. Unlike traditional abrasive blasting methods, LPC's laser cleaning systems allow for selective layer blasting while causing no damage to the substrate and underlying material.

LPC's CleanTech laser systems also benefit from not requiring the use of chemicals or any consumables which minimizes waste production.
