Pulsed Fiber Laser Ablation
Strip paint, rust, corrosion, scale, and coatings without media, chemicals, water, or substrate damage. The base metal stays cool, intact, and ready for inspection in minutes — not days.
Aviation
FeatherPulse pulsed fiber lasers remove primer, topcoat, and corrosion from aluminum aircraft skin without damaging the substrate, without chemical waste, and without the fretting-fatigue risk that media blasting and aggressive sanding bring to rivet areas. Independent research on Boeing aircraft skin samples has identified a precise fluence window — 5 J/cm² — that completely removes BMS10-11 primer while preserving both the aluminum-clad layer and the 2024 alloy substrate beneath it.
Aircraft Paint, Corrosion & Rivet-Area Restoration
Strip primer, topcoat, and corrosion from aluminum control surfaces, expose hidden damage around rivet lines, and clear surfaces for IA inspection — without media, chemicals, or fretting-fatigue risk. Validated against the 6 J/cm² substrate-damage threshold.

The Science: Why It Works on Aluminum
Aluminum reflects 1064 nm fiber-laser light; paint and oxide absorb it. That asymmetry is why the process self-limits at the substrate — and why peer-reviewed research at 5 J/cm² shows complete coating removal and improved corrosion resistance compared to mechanical methods.

The oil & gas industry runs on infrastructure under constant chemical and mechanical attack. Corrosion drives 65% of global pipeline failures. Scale formation reduces effective pipe diameter by up to 40%. FeatherPulse pulsed laser ablation cleans pipeline, offshore platform, and refinery surfaces without chemicals, water, or abrasive media — eliminating the hazardous-waste stream and the multi-day shutdowns that traditional methods require.
Pipeline & Infrastructure Maintenance
Strip corrosion, scale, wax, and coatings from pipelines, platforms, and refinery equipment — without chemicals, water, abrasive media, or multi-day shutdowns. One operator, one machine, no hazardous waste stream.
