It looks intimidating at first, but the world's top laser cleaning machine has only a single screen for you to optimize and save your settings. When you want to rent again, save your settings on a flash drive for easy recall.
Read the rental UI guide for the Netalux Kamino 300, including cleaning controls, deployment planning, and compliance preparation.
Dust capture and PAPR kit details are listed with every rental on the rentals page.The home screen and job-configuration view organize the Kamino around saved jobs, live status, warnings, settings, and a graphic control area. Operators can move between the numbered jobs at the top of the screen, review system messages, open job configuration, and inspect system information before changing cleaning parameters.
The numbered tabs at the top of the configuration screen represent the available jobs. Select a job first, then review any warnings or instructions shown in the message area before proceeding. Use the configuration button to edit task settings and the information button to review machine details and additional system options.
Confirm the selected lens before setting geometry. Lens choice determines focal length and spot size, which directly controls power level and cleaning aggressiveness.
Tight spot for rust and oxide.
Broad spot to limit charring.
Balanced spot for controlled spallation.
Use the line pattern when the cleaning path needs to track a long narrow feature, edge, seam, or wood grain direction. Resize the preview until the path matches the treatment area before moving on to wobble and overlap controls.
Best for seams and edges.
Follow grain to reduce scorching.
Use on joints and cracks.
Use the square pattern for broad flat cleaning zones where uniform area coverage matters more than following a curved edge. Resize the square until it contains the intended treatment area, then refine density with hatch pitch, overlap, and power settings.
Best for broad flat zones.
Safer than repeated line passes.
Use on planar open faces.
Use the circle pattern when the cleaning zone is rounded, localized, or irregular enough that a circular sweep gives better edge control than a line or square. Resize the preview to stay inside the work area, then use wobble and overlap adjustments to smooth the result.
Good for localized edge blending.
Helps stay inside rounded areas.
Good for pits and pore cleanup.
After choosing a base pattern, refine it with rotation and wobble controls. Rotation changes the orientation of the scan path.
Rotate freely on flat metal.
Stay near grain direction.
Match the local contour.
Wobble frequency controls how quickly the beam oscillates, and wobble amplitude controls how far that oscillation spreads from the base path. Tune these settings gradually so the scan stays smooth and evenly distributed.
Higher frequency smooths scan lines.
Lower frequency limits heat.
Balances pore coverage and impact.
Wobble amplitude controls how far the oscillation spreads from the base path. Tune these settings gradually so the scan stays smooth and evenly distributed instead of leaving visibly slow or uneven motion on the surface.
Wider spread speeds large passes.
Keep spread minimal on wood.
Avoid overworking weak edges.
Cross hatch lets the user choose between a single-axis scan line and a dual-axis scan line. Single-axis is faster with lower cumulative heat; dual-axis cross hatch gives more thorough fill.
Use 2-axis for fuller fill.
1-axis follows the grain.
Add 2-axis only if needed.
Hatch pitch controls only the spacing between adjacent scan lines for square fills and infill circles. Lower values create denser patterns, while wider spacing reduces runtime.
Tight spacing for dense oxide.
Wider spacing lowers heat.
Balanced spacing protects edges.
Laser power sets the average energy delivery rate and directly influences cleaning speed versus substrate risk.
Use the upper end for heavy scale.
Stay low to prevent scorching.
Use moderate power on stone.
Pulse overlap governs how adjacent laser pulses interact on the surface, controlling cleaning uniformity and cumulative thermal load.
Higher overlap smooths tracks.
Lower overlap limits heat.
Moderate overlap helps pore cleaning.
Pulse energy, interacting with power and frequency, determines the intensity of each individual pulse and the selectivity of contaminant removal.
Higher energy for thick scale.
Keep energy low on wood.
Stay below the fracture threshold.
Use the preview laser to confirm that the wobble and geometry behave as expected before cleaning. Small frequency changes can noticeably alter the visible preview, so check the pattern after each major adjustment.
Confirm the setup with the accept control when the job looks correct.
After you confirm a job with the accept control, save the preset to a flash drive. Bring that drive on the next rental so you can reload the same lens, pattern, and power settings instead of rebuilding them from the home screen.
Lens choice sets focal length and spot size, which changes power density and cleaning aggressiveness. This guide lists metal at 240–285 mm, masonry/stone at 415 mm, and wood at 650 mm as starting focal lengths before you tune geometry.
Use the line pattern for long narrow features such as seams, edges, or wood grain. Use the square pattern for broad flat zones where uniform area coverage matters more than tracking a curved edge. Use the circle pattern for rounded or localized cleanup.
Start in the substrate bands on this page: metal about 210–300 W for oxide and scale, masonry/stone about 120–210 W for controlled spallation, and wood about 30–120 W to limit scorching. Raise power only after preview and a small test pass look correct.
