It sounds weird, but nothing quite pleases the senses more so than watching a collection of satisfying laser gifs do their thing.

You can’t really put a finger on it, but there’s just something oddly reassuring about them. Whether it’s the precision of which they ‘clean’ certain surfaces, or if it’s the speed at which they perform their tasks, you can be sure they’ll scratch an itch you never knew you had.

Don’t believe us? Then check out these incredible lasers in action!

7 satisfying laser gifs to feed the senses

If you’ve ever worked with certain metals you’ll understand that rust can be quite the annoyance. It can put a dampener on your day and no amount of wire brushes or chemicals can save you, while sandblasting the thing will get you nowhere fast.

Fortunately, there’s a much simpler process: LASERS! 

1. Tattoo removal

4. Repairing a piece of art


5. Removing rust from a grill


6. Etching words onto a keyboard


7. Repairing worn steel


So how do lasers work then?

Lasers are amazing aren’t they? They can be used for all sorts of practical things, from cutting metals to making laser cut clothing, there isn’t much the modern laser can’t do! Sure it’s satisfying to look at them in action, but have you ever stopped and thought about HOW they do it?

An acronym for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation, they are created as a result of electrons in atoms absorbing energy from an electrical current and becoming ‘excited’.

The excited electrons move from a lower-energy orbit to a higher-energy orbit around the atom’s nucleus. When they return to their normal or “ground” state, the electrons emit photons (particles of light).

Put simply, a laser is a tube that concentrates light over and over again until it emerges in a really powerful beam.

How does a laser light differ from a normal one?

Newsflash: lasers aren’t just powerful flashlights! There’s actually a world of difference between the two. Firstly, a traditional light contains only one wavelength and this is determined by the amount of energy released. A laser uses multiple wavelengths and adds more energy to make them more concentrated.

Lasers are used across a variety of industries too, including:

– Automotive

– Rail

– Marine

– Construction

– Agricultural

– Utilities & More!
