It relates to a laser cleaning device developed for restoring conductivity. STATE OF THE ART 10 An electrical busbar is a device that collects electrical energy of the same voltage and frequency and provides a safe environment. It is a thick metal rod or strip that distributes the heat to different circuits. It is usually made of copper. They are also made of aluminum. They are commonly used in electrical panels, transformers, and power plants. They are used to carry high current. When electrical busbars are manufactured, they are coated with paint or It is completely covered with insulation material. However, for the electrical transmission of the busbar, the job is 15 these paint or insulation points, called tongues, where it connects to the area It needs to be cleaned of its material. On the tabs of the electrical busbars. to safely clean any paint or insulation coating found industrial gel paint remover chemicals or delicate mechanical scraping methods It is used. To avoid damaging the busbar surface and reducing conductivity, scraping is done at 20°C. The process must be carried out carefully. Both chemical and scraping methods... It takes considerable time and requires precision. Another technique used for cleaning the tongue of electrical busbars is traditional laser. In surface treatment systems, only one surface of the workpiece can be machined, the bottom surface 25 The part needs to be rotated for processing. This increases the processing time. It prolongs the process and leads to loss of sensitivity. Positioned opposite each other. In laser heads, the high-power laser beam is reflected back at a perpendicular angle (back- Surface reflection causes serious damage to optical components and galvo heads. Cleaning and roughening processes are carried out as separate operations. These 30 This situation extends the coating preparation time and also makes the quality control process two-stage. This requires immediate monitoring of surface quality after the process. 2 Because it could not be done properly, inadequately cleaned or roughened areas were overlooked. They are able to escape.
