Metal Reduction for Maximum Process Reliability and Quality
Metals play a key role in nearly every high-tech industry - from electronics and automotive to medical and renewable energy - but one challenge remains:
Oxidized surfaces can cause adhesion problems and significantly impair downstream processes such as soldering, bonding or coating.
Precise and environmentally friendly reduction of metal oxides is essential to improve process reliability and ensure the highest quality.
Why reduce metal oxides?
Metallic surfaces react with oxygen to form oxide layers that affect electrical conductivity, coating adhesion or wettability.
Traditional oxide removal methods often involve aggressive chemicals or complex mechanical processes.
These are not only costly, but also pollute the environment.
Modern plasma technology offers a sustainable, efficient and reliable solution.
Sustainable and Precise Reduction with Plasma
Plasma technology enables the selective and residue-free reduction of oxide layers without the use of chemicals.
Metal surfaces are specifically activated and optimally prepared for subsequent processing steps.
The result is improved adhesion, greater process reliability and a sustainable production method.
