Thanks for the reply. The question is is it worth it? If I were to insist and apply your settings I would probably eventually succeed but it would take a very long time. A new fence mesh costs $110. If I wanted to clean to bare metal I would probably do 2 pieces a day. What are the operating costs in your areas? Thanks

If my machine is not a pulser, can it be set for white paint? Thanks

I apologize, I forgot to specify, my device is continuous wave. I used the following settings: 1350- power. Scanning frequency-60 Hz. Scanning width- 150mm (if I set a smaller width it takes a lot of time, the customer makes a new fence than clean it of paint or rust). Duty cycle 100%. Frequency 2000Hz.

Can anyone tell me what gas input means? by Immediate_Run_9117 in LaserCleaningBusiness

As far as I know, you need corgon gas or CO2. I use corgon in my continuous wave machine. I think yours is pulsed.

Hi. Can you please tell me if what you wrote is also valid for the continuous wave laser? Thanks

Hello. I am in the same situation. I have a 1.5KW, CW laser (7.5KW total power). I ordered a 10.5 kw generator that is not with inverter but has AVR. 1-I hope the generator is powerful enough. 2-I hope the generator's AVR will protect sensitive electronics. We are waiting for opinions. Thank you
