Cold Plasma Surface Treatment

Today, the use of plasma as a key and cross-sectional technology has become a modern technical standard in many industries and is developing dynamically. Applications range from a few watts to more than 1000 watts and cover all industries. 

With CeraPlas – a piezo-based plasma generator in a single component – TDK has developed an innovative cold plasma source (ozonizer, ionizer) that can be used in low-power applications and minimal space requirements. The cold plasma (<50 °C) ignites in ambient air or in external gases. Its light and compact size enables handheld devices, even battery-driven ones. 

Our product portfolio comprises several types of CeraPlas elements, supporting tools for your development, as well as ready-to-use PiezoBrush products. PiezoBrush is the ideal complement to your production for subsequent processes that benefit from high surface energy like gluing, printing, coating and superfine cleaning.  

More powerful plasma systems are supported by relyon plasma, a subsidiary of TDK Electronics, specialized in the design of complete plasma systems using either PDD (Piezoelectric Direct Discharge based on CeraPlas) or its proprietary PAA (Pulsed Atmospheric Arc) technology. Together we can offer versatile solutions for plasma applications, such as customized modules for the specific requirements of your application.
