Carbon Steel Laser Cleaning
Carbon steel looks scabby with outdoor rust before work starts. Afterward the operator has bare iron that is still sound, without a pit track.


This Unimog clip shows service parts coming clean under a laser after rust and old finish have hidden the steel. What matters is which piece you are on, because a housing, a linkage, and a cover do not take heat the same way. Threads and sealing faces need the soil gone without a change in size. Treat the footage as these parts on this bench, and end the pass once you can read the steel rather than once the part shines.
Short kcnq4fnSftE shows pulsed laser clearing paint, rust, and grime from Unimog steel parts in 58 seconds without chemicals.
The clip is a 58-second pulsed-fiber demo on Unimog steel parts. You see paint, rust, and grime leave so the surfaces are ready for the next coating step without chemical strippers.
Treat paint, rust, and mill scale as separate layers. After the coating leaves, check near 1.42–4.26 J/cm² for remaining oxide and keep stacked energy under about 5.7–15 J/cm² so bare metal stays unmarked.
Treat the Short as path proof only. Re-check each coating thickness and steel grade, especially on thin brackets and threaded bosses, before production energy.
