Plasma Surface Treatment

AP-3 Series Plasma Surface Treatment Machine

Description


The AP-3 Series are advanced atmospheric pressure plasma surface treatment machines that are equipped with servo motors and high speed ball screw linear actuators for accuracy. The standard machine AP-3P is equipped with a single nozzle situated above the substrate to plasma treat, clean and activate surfaces from the top side only. The AP-3DP utilizes dual plasma nozzles top and bottom (single nozzle above and single nozzle below substrate) synchronized for simultaneous treatment or operate each nozzle independently for maximized productivity.

Plasma Treatment removes static electricity and  contaminants such as fine dust, oil, grease, microbial organisms, and both organic/inorganic compounds while also providing surface modification which facilitates adhesion of various coatings and/or adhesive materials. Additionally, plasma treatment promotes the flow of coatings for thin film coating without other mechanical or chemical treatments required.

Features & Benefits of Atmospheric Plasma Treatment


  • Inline Plasma Treatment: completely automated high production atmospheric plasma treatment processing 
  • Atmospheric Pressure Plasma: generate plasma solely using compressed air without the need for carrier gases
  • Multi-functional: system can be used as standalone or placed inline with upstream or downstream operation processes
  • Environmentally Friendly: zero chemicals are used and no harmful substances are produced
  • Cleaning: remove fine dust, oil, grease, organic, inorganic and microbial contaminants
  • Activation: Increase surface energy to promote wetting and adhesion
