When it is determined to be pure rust, the processing unit of the visual device guides the call of the laser head on the rust removal head 20 during processing to achieve the rust removal function; if the surface of the steel pipe is a mixture of rust and surface attachments such as paint and concrete, the grinding mechanism 60 is first called to grind the attachments during processing. After the grinding is completed, the laser head on the rust removal head 20 is called to remove the rust.
