Abstract
A removal system is configured for removing a coating from a substrate of a component. A first and second energy source are each configured to direct electromagnetic radiation onto the component the electromagnetic radiation produces a respective first and second property. A sensor detects the first and second properties produced by the first and second stream of electromagnetic radiation. A controller is configured to receive the detected first and second property from the sensor and the associated first and second power levels from the respective first and second energy sources. The controller transmits an updated power level to at least one of the first and second energy sources in response to the first and second property received from the sensor and the associated power level received from the first and second energy sources.
