About
Javier Lamas is a leading researcher in the field of laser-based manufacturing and robotic automation, with a focused expertise in laser cleaning and surface processing technologies. His major contributions center on the development of integrated robotic systems capable of performing precise laser ablation on complex three-dimensional surfaces. Notably, his 2022 work on "Robot-assisted laser ablation for 3D surfaces" (28 citations) introduced a pioneering system that combines a femtosecond pulse laser with a 6-degree-of-freedom robotic arm and a laser profilometer, enabling automated paint removal and surface treatment on arbitrary geometries. This innovation addresses critical limitations in traditional laser cleaning, which struggles with non-planar objects. His earlier foundational study (2021, 7 citations) laid the groundwork for these advances, demonstrating the potential of robotic laser cleaning to replace chemical and abrasive methods in industries like aerospace and automotive. By achieving high precision, chemical-free processing, and cost efficiency, Lamas’s work has significant implications for sustainable manufacturing and restoration. His research bridges robotics, laser physics, and surface engineering, offering scalable solutions for industrial automation.
