Use on joints and cracks.

5

Pattern selection: Square

Metal

Panels

Best for broad flat zones.

Wood

Flat patches

Safer than repeated line passes.

Masonry / Stone

Metal

Spot cleanup

Good for localized edge blending.

Wood

Knots / patches

Helps stay inside rounded areas.

Masonry / Stone

Pores / pits

Good for pits and pore cleanup.

7

Rotation

Metal

0-180°

Rotate freely on flat metal.

Wood

0-15°

Stay near grain direction.

Masonry / Stone

0-90°

Match the local contour.

8

Wobble frequency

Metal

40-180 kHz

Higher frequency smooths scan lines.

Wood

20-80 kHz

Lower frequency limits heat.

Masonry / Stone

60-140 kHz

Balances pore coverage and impact.

9

Wobble amplitude

Metal

0.30-1.00 mm

Wider spread speeds large passes.

Wood

0.05-0.20 mm

Keep spread minimal on wood.

Masonry / Stone

0.10-0.40 mm

Avoid overworking weak edges.

10

Cross hatch

Metal

2-axis

Use 2-axis for fuller fill.

Wood

1-axis

1-axis follows the grain.

Masonry / Stone

1-axis

Add 2-axis only if needed.

11

Hatch pitch

Metal

0.05-0.15 mm

Tight spacing for dense oxide.

Wood

0.20-0.40 mm

Wider spacing lowers heat.

Masonry / Stone

0.10-0.25 mm

Balanced spacing protects edges.

12

Laser power

Metal

210-300 W

Use the upper end for heavy scale.

Wood

30-120 W

Stay low to prevent scorching.

Masonry / Stone

120-210 W

Use moderate power on stone.

13

Pulse overlap

Metal

60-80 %

Higher overlap smooths tracks.

Wood

20-50 %

Lower overlap limits heat.

Masonry / Stone

40-60 %

Moderate overlap helps pore cleaning.

14

Pulse energy

Metal

1.0-2.0 mJ

Higher energy for thick scale.

Wood

0.1-0.4 mJ

Keep energy low on wood.

Masonry / Stone

0.4-1.0 mJ

Stay below the fracture threshold.

FAQ

  • What is the Netalux Kamino-300 laser cleaning system?

    The Netalux Kamino-300 is a compact, air-cooled 300W pulsed fiber laser (1064 nm, nanosecond) designed for portable, high-precision cleaning. It features an ergonomic handheld head, adjustable parameters, and excellent heat management, making it ideal for on-site restoration, industrial maintenance, and rental applications in the Bay Area.

  • What are the key specifications of the Netalux Kamino-300?

    Average power: 300W | Pulse energy: up to 2 mJ | Pulse frequency: 2–4000 kHz | Pulse length: 20–500 ns | Air-cooled | IP54 rated | Weight: approx. 40–43 kg | Power supply: 110–240V single phase (950–1150W consumption). It offers a strong balance of power and portability.

  • What materials and applications is the Kamino-300 best suited for?

    Excellent for metal (rust, paint, coatings), wood, stone/masonry, and delicate surfaces. Common uses include rust removal on steel beams and truck frames, paint stripping, historic restoration, mold cleaning, and weld preparation. Parameter presets allow quick switching between light oxidation and heavy contamination.

  • What power requirements does the Kamino-300 need on job sites?

    It operates on standard 110–240V single-phase power (approx. 1150W consumption). No bulky water chiller is required thanks to its air-cooled design. A properly grounded outlet or suitable generator is recommended for field use in the Bay Area.

  • How do I maintain the Netalux Kamino-300?

    Daily lens inspection and cleaning is essential. Replace protective windows regularly based on usage. Keep the fiber cable protected, follow parameter guidelines to avoid overheating, and use the provided checklists. We supply spare parts and support with every rental or purchase.
