Innovation – The PLASMA coating is technologically far superior to other procedures. The core of the process is the targeted feeding of powder and precursor into the plasma jet, which is up to several 10,000 degrees hot. Two key criteria are responsible for the coating quality: Firstly, the low heat input into the substrate through the focused plasma jet. Secondly, the coating material as a special powder or as precursor vapour.
Result – This makes it possible to achieve extremely dense and compact coatings without solvent and at unprecedented speed at atmospheric pressure – i.e. without vacuum. The plasma coatings themselves are still extremely adhesive even with a thickness of a few μm or a few nm.
Possibilities – Through this innovative process, material combinations that did not exist before are now possible. In particular, high-melting powders or glass-like coatings can be applied to sensitive surfaces (paper, wood, plastics, films, etc.) without the substrates being thermally damaged. The low energy input opens up new coating perspectives. A much more favourable atmospheric process replaces expensive PVD or CVD systems as well as galvanic baths. The result is a dry, simple and environmentally friendly process.
