PlasmaTEC-X product description

Tantec’s New PlasmaTEC-X Atmospheric Plasma treatment system is built around the concept of a high voltage DC Plasma discharge in atmospheric air.

The versatility of this unit allows for use in fully integrated robotic cells, as a standalone unit, or most any production line.

To ensure proper Plasma Discharge from the Discharge Nozzle the compressed air must be within a certain level of pressure and volume, the new AirTEC system, which is built into the PlasmaTEC-X ensures a constant flow to the Discharge Nozzle at all times.

With the AirTEC System, the plasma generator automatically adjusts the airflow of the Discharge nozzle regardless of the cable/hose length.

The AirTEC System in conjunction with the universal power input makes the PlasmaTEC-X very user-friendly. No adjustments are necessary, simply connect to the power grid (mains power) and compressed air and the unit is ready for use.

A Daisy Chain system is offered where any combination of 1-8 PlasmaTEC-X Plasma Generators can be controlled through a single control unit – the PlasmaREMOTE HMI unit. The units can be controlled individually through a conventional relay system or from the digital interface as a group with the same master signal.

Tantec’s latest feature, which is now being offered, is called “Stand-By air low.” Through the HMI, an operator can set an airflow during standby to avoid dust being attracted to the discharge head.

All connections from the PlasmaTEC-X Plasma Generator to the discharge nozzle is made through a standard plug, making it very easy to connect and use.

Thanks to the DC technology, and the AirTEC system, no adjustments are necessary in case of cable length changes.
