The Castellini CMC unit is designed to deliver maximum accuracy and optimal preparation of ship panel base plates, utilising both traditional technologies and cutting-edge laser applications. Whether you require sandblasting, ink marking, and plasma cutting or prefer advanced laser solutions such as laser ablation, laser marking, and laser bevel cutting, the CMC unit adapts to your specific needs.

ADVANTAGES OF LASER TECHNOLOGY IN THE CMC PROCESS

The benefits of incorporating laser technology into the CMC process are significant and easily demonstrable:

  • Laser Ablation vs. Sandblasting: Unlike sandblasting, laser ablation eliminates the need for sand, resulting in a cleaner process with enhanced control over the width and depth of primer removal.
  • Laser vs. Ink Marking: Laser marking offers a consumable-free, fast, precise, and durable alternative to traditional ink marking methods.
  • Laser vs. Plasma Cutting: Laser cutting provides unparalleled precision compared to plasma cutting. Moreover, the speed of the laser process is remarkably superior, enhancing overall efficiency.
