Plasma Cleaners

Often plasma cleaners perform the function of optimizing surfaces for further processing.

Plasma cleaners are versatile enough to perform several process steps.

In the case of medical products or some electronic applications sterilized, or ultra clean surfaces are the required end result.

This page explores various plasma cleaner systems, from initial surface preparation to achieving ultra-clean surfaces for demanding applications like EUV lithography.

Desktop Plasma Cleaners

All of our Desktop/Laboratory plasma systems are configurable as plasma cleaners. The SmartPlasma® range is ideal for small production.

The PlasmaFlecto® range is ideal for development as up to 100 processes with varying process steps can be saved.

These versatile plasma cleaners can clean, etch and prime ready for painting or bonding without the need for re-venting or unloading the chamber.

Customized product mounting including rotating drum systems are available in some of these plasma cleaners.

Any of these desktop plasma cleaners offer a plug and play capability, excellent repeatability and process monitoring.

Industrial plasma cleaners - standard chamber

IndustrialLine IndustrialLine® Plasma Cleaners

This range of programmable plasma cleaners are the best suited for large production runs with an established process.

Ideal for removing contamination from previous processes and for preparing surfaces for further process steps.

Designed to operate 24/7 and provide consistent results.

IndustrialLine® systems

ProfiLine® plasma cleaners

This range of multi tasking plasma cleaners are ideal for either development projects or for performing more than just the removal of contamination from previous processes,

These plasma cleaners are capable of storing and performing multiple tasks and with the possibility to connect additional gas sources they can clean, etch and prime with no need to vant and open the chamber.

Examples of Custom designed plasma cleaners

Our custom-designed plasma cleaners are tailored to your specific product, material, and desired outcome. The process parameters are optimized for your unique application.

Double door plasma cleaners

The use of a plasma cleaner with interlocking doors prevents errors occurring as processed goods are kept separate from untreated goods.

The interlocking doors allows the plasma cleaner to operate as a lock to a clean area prevent recontamination of cleaned goods.

This is particularly important in the case where the plasma cleaner is performing the task of sterilizing where it is not possible to visually determine which goods have been processed.

Modifications of these plasma cleaners are often used in applications where extreme cleanliness is needed. To achieve these super clean parts nonstandard pressure may be employed in the process.

Plasma cleaners for roll to roll goods

The handling of roll-to-roll goods in a plasma cleaner presents unique challenges.

For sheet materials the process must be even across and along the sheet.

The material itself must not be damaged either by the plasma or stretched.

The process must be as fast as possible while maintaining repeatability and consistent results.

For tubes and cables, often heat is needed to ensure removal of volatile contamination from within the strands of the cable.

This is provided by the plasma itself. By concentrating the plasma field around the product, the desired temperature can be reached in seconds even in vacuum.

Plasma is an excellent and efficient form of heating in a vacuum.

Plasma cleaners for bulk goods and powders

Bulk goods and powders are typically processed in rotating drum plasma cleaners.

These plasma cleaners can feature a single drum or sectioned drums, allowing simultaneous cleaning of different components within a set, each in its own compartment.
