Abstract

Laser cleaning has been widely used in manufacturing industries due to its lower pollution and higher cleaning precision and efficiency compared with traditional ways. However, laser cleaning would inevitably induce processing roughness on the workpiece surface and only a few researches have been conducted to this field. In this work, the influence of process parameters on surface roughness was explored in detail. The results showed that process parameters changed surface roughness by changing energy density and overlap ratio. And surface roughness was showed linear positive correlation with energy density. At same energy density, surface roughness will first increase and then decrease with increasing overlap ratios. The maximum roughness was in the range of 50 to 66.7%. It could be explained that after laser irradiation, the sample surface absorbed pulse energy and formed craters. The rim and craters made the sample surface coarse. Due to the depth and diameter of craters were dependent on energy density, the roughness increased with increasing energy densities. The adjacent craters will also change the height of rim and depth of crater with different overlap ratios. It led to different surface roughness.
