What are the running costs of laser cleaning?

To operate a cleaning laser, you need electricity: 0.4 kW (50W) to 7 kW (1000W).  Furthermore, some cleaning lasers use compressed air. Lastly, there is a yearly fee for the P-Laser software, Cleansweep. The fibre laser is, in fact, maintenance-free. There are no moving parts inside and no micro-positioned mirrors inside the laser source, like a YAG laser. You don't have to shoot your 5 mm laser beam into a 25 µ-meter fibre ( human hair) to transport the laser light to your laser gun. The fibre laser resolves 90% of the problems with traditional YAG lasers sensitive to cooling and exterior temperature changes. No maintenance may be a heavy statement, but you must look at the lasers and optic chiller regularly. A YAG laser requires a minimum of 1 year of a full check by a highly trained specialist. The fibre lasers don't require any maintenance, only chiller filters, and your personnel must check your lens surface.
