Allied Scientific Pro (ASP) has developed and manufactured a laser cleaning system for the conservation market. Offering full control over a wide range of parameters allows for precise cleaning with the ability to retain patinas.
With a long legacy of expertise in laser nano and micro machining process, ASP is capable of offering a state of the art laser system to address the needs of the conservators. Our laser system is compact, robust and has a long lifetime with low or no maintenance for years. We are using the latest laser and scanner technology to offer high quality performance and speed efficient cleaning without causing damage to the object.
ASP laser laboratory services can assist conservators by establishing optimal parameters from samples provided if required.
