Netalux Dagger 4000 Laser Cleaning Parameters
Industrial Laser Cleaning Machines netalux.com (opens in new tab)
Netalux's Dagger 4000 is built for area work, pairing 4000 W of average power with 100 mJ pulses so whole steel structures become practical to strip. Its controls are power and scan speed instead of a pulse-width dial, which keeps setup simple for long rust and mill scale runs and for weld-prep cleaning.

Netalux Dagger 4000 questions
What kind of laser is the Netalux Dagger 4000?
The Dagger 4000 is Netalux's 4000 W[1] continuous-wave fiber source at 1064 nm, using a ring plus high-density core beam built for large areas and heavy layers rather than fine detail work.
Is the Netalux Dagger 4000 a good laser cleaner for big jobs?
Yes, it is built for big surfaces where raw output matters more than fine pulse control. Netalux lists a pulse frequency band of 2-50 kHz and up to 100 mJ per pulse on this water-cooled platform.
Which settings do you adjust on the Dagger 4000?
Average power and scan speed are the main controls, because Netalux publishes no pulse-width setting for this model. Start well below the full 4000 W[1] on a scrap piece and raise power only until the coating comes off cleanly.
Does the Dagger 4000 need water cooling?
Yes, the Dagger 4000 requires water cooling. Plan a chiller and water supply sized for a 4 kW source instead of expecting an air-cooled handheld setup.
