Effect of laser parameters on the surface cleaning of galvanised steel by laser engraving process

Laser cleaning is a method of removing layers of material from a surface by using laser irradiation. The energy from the laser provides a textured pattern on the melting surface, as well as colour changes and variations in surface roughness. This study looks into the effect of laser parameters on th...
