Laser Photonics Secures Order From Komatsu for CleanTech Laser Cleaning System Through Its Japanese Distributor

Laser Photonics Corporation (LPC) (NASDAQ: LASE), a leading global developer of industrial laser systems for laser cleaning and other material processing applications, announced today that it received an order for its CleanTech LPC-500-CTHD laser cleaning system from Komatsu through LPC’s Japanese distributor.

Operating for more than a century, Japan’s Komatsu is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of industrial equipment for construction and mining. The company adopted a strong stance on sustainability practices and is working to empower a future where people, businesses and our planet thrive together.

“Our laser cleaning technology is a clear choice for enterprises implementing eco-friendly practices that are safe for the environment and workers, which is part of why Komatsu chose our laser systems,” said Wayne Tupuola, CEO of Laser Photonics.

Komatsu will use LPC’s CleanTech system at its technology development, demonstration and promotion facility in Japan. Unlike traditional abrasive blasting methods, LPC’s laser cleaning systems allow for selective layer stripping while causing no damage to the substrate and underlying material. LPC’s CleanTech laser systems also benefit from not requiring the use of chemicals or any consumables which minimizes waste production.
