Plan with your actual material. These brochure rates use the standard 2 mJ source with an F254 optic under ideal conditions. Higher-energy source options increase paint-removal rates. They are planning and model-comparison ranges, not guaranteed production rates.

Results vary with material and substrate condition, surface geometry, temperature and humidity, optic, beam parameters, scan strategy, extraction, required finish, operator technique and other job conditions. Test the actual materials and areas before production planning or commercial commitments. Specifications and performance ranges are subject to change.

1 mil = 25.4 µm. 100 ft²/h ≈ 9.3 m²/h.

Regulated clean, dry air assist is required for wood, paint, adhesives and other coatings that may be flammable or need smoke and debris cleared. Application settings and the work-area setup must follow the operator documentation.

Planning ranges. Your material sets the pace.
Rates reflect ideal conditions using the standard 2 mJ source and F254 optic. Actual results vary. Test the actual materials and areas to be cleaned before making production plans or commercial commitments.

Paint & coatings uses a 0–25 ft²/h scale; the other groups use 0–200 ft²/h. Compare bar lengths within each group.

Performance conditions & measurement notes

Higher-energy source options increase paint removal rates. Actual results may vary with material and substrate condition; surface geometry; ambient temperature and humidity; selected optic; beam parameters; scan strategy; extraction; required finish; operator technique; and other job-specific conditions. Specifications and performance ranges are for reference only and subject to change without notice.
