Compact plasma torch
Localised treatment on 3D parts
A nozzle blows plasma onto the area to treat, a few millimetres from the part. The rest of the part is left untouched.

Dimensioned footprint, required utilities, protocols. To pass on to your integrator.
To activate a precise zone on a 3D part
Adhesive that will not hold
The bead peels at ageing or in a peel test. The torch activates the bonding strip just before dispensing.
Paint that flakes off
Release agent stops the paint gripping the moulded part. Plasma removes it and makes the surface receptive.
Printing that smears
Ink beads up instead of spreading. One pass of the torch over the area is enough.

Plasma, right on the line
The torch creates plasma in open air and blows it onto the part. No vacuum chamber, no pumping, no solvent: it mounts on your line, on a robot or a fixed station.
Choose the nozzle by how the zone is reached. Straight for a strip, rotary for a wider track, 45° for grooves and sides.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know whether this equipment suits my part?
Send us the part. We treat it in our Québec City laboratory. Within 48 hours you get the surface energy before and after, the settings used, and a frank opinion if plasma is not the right answer.
Has my material already been treated?
Materials qualified in the laboratory: [x]. Yours is not listed? That is the most common case. Send us three samples: a measured answer within 48 hours.
Can it be rented before buying?
Yes. You test the equipment on site, with your parts and your operators, before investing. Terms: [x].
What documents do you provide for a customer audit?
The process file: plasma settings, measurement methods, results on your parts and procedures. For regulated markets, it follows your sector's requirements.
And if no configuration fits?
We then design a custom reactor, matched to your material and your throughput. See the custom reactors →

The complement
Test inks
A treatment you do not measure is not a process. The calibrated ink tells you in seconds whether the surface has passed the target threshold.

Millimetre precision
Precision torch
Cold plasma with a millimetre footprint, for small-area samples and sensitive substrates. It also accepts a precursor.

Whole surface
Surface source
A discharge spread across the whole electrode, treating flat parts and flexible films uniformly. No sweeping, so no over-treated band.

Film deposition
Deposition station
When activating is no longer enough: a 1 to 300 nm functional film deposited by atmospheric plasma, anti-corrosion or anti-scratch depending on the precursor.
