Abstract
A laser cleaning apparatus and a laser cleaning method are furnished, for switching the wavelengths of laser beams furnished by a single laser module using a wavelength switching module and cleaning a test piece using the laser beams having wavelengths and energy suitable for manufacturing needs. The laser cleaning method includes: creating a laser beam; switching the wavelength output by the laser based on process requirements; propagating the laser beam via an optical path propagating module for laser cleaning the test piece; and removing debris. A transfer platform allows movements of the laser beams with respect to the test piece to achieve cleaning of the entire test piece. A control module controls the wavelength switching unit, the laser beam regulating module, and the transfer platform. Total laser cleaning with improved laser cleaning quality is achieved by using these laser beams with the appropriate wavelengths and energy.
