How plasma technology works for surface treatment and how the technology can reduce the carbon footprint - Plasmatreat UK will be answering these and many other questions about plasma technology in Hall 3, Stand Q180 at the Advanced Engineering Show in Birmingham. The subsidiary of Plasmatreat GmbH, headquartered in Germany, will be exhibiting a range of plasma systems and equipment at the show from October 30-31. The event is considered one of the UK's leading trade shows for engineers and professionals from various industries, including automotive, battery, lightweight and aerospace. It focuses on the latest manufacturing technologies or processes related to key issues such as sustainability and efficiency.

Plasmatreat is a world leader in the development and manufacture of Openair-Plasma and PlasmaPlus systems for the surface treatment of a wide range of materials. The technology has a wide range of applications and not only improves the surface properties of materials such as plastics or metals, but also contributes to increased efficiency and sustainability in manufacturing processes. Surface pretreatment includes the processes of cleaning, activation and coating.

At the Advanced Engineering Show, attendees will learn about Openair-Plasma pretreatment solutions specifically tailored to the needs of the automotive and battery industries. These include the use of plasma activation and cleaning to improve the adhesion of liquid or solid seals, adhesives, paints or varnishes, or plasma coating for reliable and environmentally friendly corrosion protection of battery or control housings.

"The Advanced Engineering Show's focus on automotive, aerospace and lightweight is a perfect match for the industries in which our technology is used," said Andrew Nixon, Sales Manager at Plasmatreat UK. "This event gives us the opportunity to showcase our latest developments in plasma technology and discuss future trends and challenges with industry peers."

Plasma can be reliably and automatically used in the e-mobility segment to clean battery cells prior to filming or painting for insulation, to activate the film/varnish prior to cell-to-cell bonding, or for cylindrical cells prior to wire bonding. The AntiCorr plasma coating for durable, selective and dry protection against infiltration corrosion is also used by manufacturers of battery or control housings. In lightweight construction, the technology scores points by saving weight through reliable, structural bonding of various plastic-plastic or plastic-glass joints.

Visitors to the show are invited to visit the plasma experts at Plasmatreat UK in Hall 3 on stand Q180 to find out more about the benefits of plasma technology and how these solutions can help improve production processes.
