PNP Plasma Technology
Working at atmospheric pressure, our unique plasma technology does not require expensive, energy-demanding vacuum pumps and manifolds, with the added benefit of having a small factory-floor footprint.
​
Moreover, our process is continuous and allows for rapid reel change-over and reduced downtime due to cleaning.
01
Large Reel Width
With the ability to treat reel widths from 300-2500mm, PNP 's platforms increase our flexibility to meet client's needs while increasing daily output.
02
High Speed Kinetics
The desired final product determines the process parameters and therefore the speed of the plasma treatment process. Typically between 20-60 m/min it can climb as high as 400 m/min for some treatments. This capability, coupled with the large reel width, greatly multiplies our overall production volumes.
03
Reduction of Raw Material Consumption & Costs
Compared to traditional wet coating methods which are micrometric in scale, our Plasma Nanocoatings, are nanometric (1000 times smaller). This results in a reduction by a factor of a thousand of raw materials consumed and their associated cost while rendering the final product highly recyclabe.
Our process is carried out in a gaseous state so there are no energy-hungry post-processing drying steps. As a result, our overall energy consumption is extremely low. The products are ready for use as soon as they leave the plasma reactor while the nanocoatings obtained have shelf-lives from 6 months to 6 years or more, depending on the treatment.
04
Low Demand for Energy
Nitrogen is the main vector gas used in our process meaning that there are no dangerous effluents which are difficult and expensive to dispose of (e.g. fluorinated chemicals). Safe for the environment and, just as importantly, harmless to workers, our process is fluid and safe.
05
No Toxic Waste-Products
Simple-to-Use Interface
Selecting the appropriate gas vector and chemical precursor is facilitated through a user-friendly HMI which allows easy customisation of surface properties by adjusting process parameters simply at the touch of a screen.
