Bipolar technology for the most demanding requirements
The process power supplies from the TruPlasma Bipolar Series 4000 (G2) were specially developed for plasma-based coating by means of physical vapor deposition (PVD), plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), and reactive sputtering processes. As a result of their configurable output signal and sophisticated ARC management, these latest generation, bipolar pulsers are extremely versatile. Regardless of whether the application is semi-conductor and solar cell manufacturing, or coating architectural glazing, you can always expect maximum performance in terms of coating quality and rates.
Fully digital arc management for the highest coating quality and productivity.
Simple adjustment to various processes by varying the output signal.
DC, pulsed DC and bipolar: Save on costs due to diverse settings.
No external components are required, meaning it only requires a small amount of space.

First-rate power supply
Typical areas of application include semi-conductor and photovoltaics production, coating architectural glazing, and manufacturing decorative and wear-resistant coatings of the highest quality. PVD and PECVD processes, in particular, are used for this.
