Abstract: In the field of treament of metallic surfaces in processing industry, new vistas are opened up by laser beam as a universal tool without physical contact between the tool and the workpiece. Since the generation of laser beam has a low efficiency, therefore the overall efficiency of the laser beam treatment is influenced – to a considerable effect – by the energy absorbed by the workpiece, which in turn has an effect on the quality and economics of the treatment, too. For this reason, the interaction between the CO₂ laser beam of a wavelength of 10.6µm and the workpiece was examined for the case of different surface-coating substances. The examinations were carried out with the help of thermovision band-filtered to a wavelength of 10.6µm .
