What are the effects of plasma treatment and how they compare to traditional heat and surface treatment processes?
A1: Plasma treatment can be described as a bombardment of ions on the wire surface. As such plasma treatment results in three effects on the wire: (1) heating of the wire, (2) surface cleaning (e.g. deoxidation, de-lubrication) and (3) surface polishing (increased micro-roughness, decreased macro-roughness). This makes PlasmaANNEALER particularly suitable for applications that require high quality of surface finish.
