Nowadays coating and bonding have become an integral part of everyday working life in industry, model construction, the laboratory and workshop and for the craftsmen of many trades, Surfaces often require pretreating if good adhesion is to be achieved. The compact Piezobrush - a coldactive plasma handset for manual surface activation under ambient pressure - is the solution offered by Reinhausen Plasma for this process. Even temperaturesensitive substrates can be treated with this economical and portable plasma tool thanks to an activation process carried out at approx. 40 °C.
If a strong and permanent adhesion is to be achieved in many bonding, coating, painting and printing processes, pretreating or activation of the surface is a must. Plasma technology achieves optimum results on metal, plastics, glass and ceramics. With its extremely compact Piezobrush, Reinhausen Plasma GmbH offers an economical solution for an effective smallscale activation process. This portable device was specially developed for manual pretreatment of single parts and small quantities, refinishing in difficult manufacturing processes such as you find in electronic and precision engineering as well as the repair of ETFE films on buildings or painted surfaces with coldactive noble gas plasma under ambient pressure.
Materialfriendly treatment thanks to coldactive plasma
Unlike conventional plasma generators that use much higher temperatures, the Piezobrush operates at approx. 40 °C with completely harmless induced stress. This means that even substrates that are extremely sensitive to temperature such as plastic and paper can be pretreated harmlessly. At the same time the safety of the operator is guaranteed despite high activation efficiency.
Thanks to its low operating temperature, the Piezobrush can be operated with low gas flow rates, which in turn results in laminar flow properties that allow the plasma to enter gaps and cavities. The plasma spreads uniformly over the surface and flows into fine gaps and contours. Moreover, the Piezobrush operates particlefree making it suitable for cleanroom applications.
Simple to use thanks to its plug & play design
The plug & play design of the Piezobrush makes it very simple to use. The plasma beam is activated with just a single button on the handheld device. An integrated controller regulates the gas and power supply to the penshaped plasma head in which the noble gas plasma is ignited by means of a piezo ceramic. The multifunctional holder of the plasma head can be used both as a base station as well as a tripod to allow handsfree processing. In the latter case a footoperated switch is used to switch the plasma beam on and off.
