STEINHAGEN, Germany - Plasmatreat GmbH, an atmospheric plasma technology company, has unveiled HydroPlasma, an eco-friendly solution for ultra-precise cleaning of glass and metal surfaces. Combining the proven effectiveness of Openair-Plasma with the reactive power of ionized water, HydroPlasma sets a new benchmark for removing stubborn organic and inorganic contaminants, including fingerprints, oils, salts, and grease, without chemicals.
In sectors like automotive, electronics, aerospace, and medical manufacturing, even microscopic contaminants can compromise adhesion in critical processes such as bonding, coating, printing or sealing. Traditional cleaning methods often rely on solvents or wet-chemical treatments, but HydroPlasma delivers a chemical-free, sustainable alternative using only compressed air, electricity, and water. This advanced technology not only enhances cleaning efficiency but also supports environmentally responsible production.
HydroPlasma's patented process injects water into a plasma jet, where it ionizes into a highly reactive cleaning stream. A precision nozzle directs this stream onto surfaces, dissolving residues with a detergent-like effect—no harsh chemicals required.
Unlike conventional methods, HydroPlasma:
- Removes previously stubborn contaminants (e.g., fingerprints, inorganic residues).
- Preserves delicate substrates with a cooling effect that prevents thermal damage.
- Boosts surface energy for improved wettability in downstream processes.
While Openair-Plasma remains ideal for light organic contaminants (dust, oils), HydroPlasma extends capabilities to challenging inorganic residues. Together, they offer a VOC-free, scalable cleaning suite for industries demanding zero-compromise cleanliness.
HydroPlasma integrates into existing production lines, including automotive manufacturing, electronics, and precision optics. Its gentle yet powerful cleaning is ideal for:
- Automotive: Ensuring flawless coating adhesion and structural bonding.
- Medical Devices: Meeting sterile surface standards.
- Aerospace: Preparing critical components for coatings.
By eliminating solvents and reducing waste, HydroPlasma helps manufacturers cut carbon footprints while maintaining workplace safety and process reliability.
