No doubt about it: EWI gets involved in some pretty cool stuff. Check out this video of laser paint stripping demo. It’s a new patent-pending polygon laser scanner, part of a high-speed, large-scale depaint system EWI developed in partnership with folks at SwRI and Wayne Trails Technologies. In demos, the system produced the highest paint stripping efficiency, highest paint stripping rates, and best effluent management of any paint stripping technology EVER REPORTED. What’s more, the new laser scanner is smaller, lighter, more robust and lower cost than competitive scanners available today. It has immediate applications for military and commercial aircraft, as well as naval, nuclear and other industrial applications. Stan Ream, EWI’s Technology Leader for laser technologies, can tell you more. You can reach him directly at sream@ewi.org or 614.688.5092.

Interested in possible applications for graffiti removal & cost.
Removal of paint based graffiti from structures is quite feasible with EWI’s laser paint stripping technology. Details such as paint colors, access for equipment, and substrate surfaces can influence the success of the process. For example, removing black paint from a concrete structure could be much easier than removing yellow graffiti from a white painted truss structure due to access for equipment and absorbance of the laser light wavelength within the materials. The cost of the system is dependent on the specific application. If you would like additional details, we would be happy to discuss your particular application and provide you with a ROM system cost. Please call 614.688.5000 and ask to speak with me.
