Selective plasma coating of metal surfaces

Recycled plastic materials and WPC tend to have difficult-to-bond surfaces. An Openair® process for pretreating large surface panels now allows for low-cost production. LIGHTWEIGHTDESIGN (3/11) gives the details.

Plasma Technology in Lightweight Panel Production

High-grade plastic display windows demand costly coating processes after injection moulding. The technical journal PLASMA + OBERFLÄCHE 5/2011 (Plasma + Surfaces) reports, how adhesion and appearance obtain perfect characteristics by Openair®-Plasma treatment.

Lasting Transparency

Openair® atmospheric plasma technology also excels in the pretreatment of PP foils. The trade magazine C2 gives the details in its March 2011 issue.

The right atmosphere

The sensor manufacturer Novotechnik regards the change from the low-pressure plasma chamber to the use of the integrated Openair® technology as a milestone in the development of the company’s sensor production. The technical journal SENSOR-MAGAZIN (3/11) covers the story.

Atmospheric Plasma sets standards in the coating process of circuit boards

Higher requirements on the corrosion resistance of e.g. bonded metallic components demand for innovative solutions. The German journal ADHÄSION (adhesion) reports in its issue 3/2011 on the strong effects of PlasmaPlus® coatings.

Nanometer thick coatings in series production

One of the leading experts in the area of plastics fascias surface refinement was looking for a reproducible, high-quality and fully automated pretreatment technique for its new coating line. The solution was found at Plasmatreat. The international journal IPCM (2/2011) reports.

Clear Views – Inline pretreatment of display fascias with atmospheric plasma

A problem with the adhesion of LSR to PP would have almost led to a breakdown in the production of rain/light sensors for the automotive industry. The German technical magazine KUNSTSTOFFE (10/2010) reports how manufacture was still made possible by the immediate action of Plasmatreat.

Troubleshooting with cold plasma

The usual masking process before foam filling is particularly labor-intensive in instrument panel construction. The journal "Special K 2010" describes how the supplier to Audi, Peguform, completely does without masking.
