Atmospheric Plasma Solutions, a leading innovator in plasma surface preparation technology, introduces its proprietary Plionyx system, designed for commercial and military applications. This system uses non-thermal plasma to remove coatings, adhesives, and other organic materials, converting them into CO2 and water vapor, while transforming inorganic materials into powder, offering an environmentally friendly solution for surface preparation .
About Atmospheric Plasma Solutions Technology
David Craig, the company’s Regional Sales Manager, shared details about the company’s cutting-edge technology and its impact on sectors ranging from defense to commercial, stating that its technology is particularly well-suited to Department of Defense (DoD) and military applications and that its commercial product, Plionyx , is beginning to gain traction in the market.
We did about 15 to 20 years of research and development, and then we expanded into the commercial market.
he emphasized.
Atmospheric Plasma Solutions’ technology has already proven its value in various defense sectors, with more than 80 plasma systems currently deployed in Navy shipyards, ships, and maintenance areas. The company has a particular focus on non-destructive testing (NDT) and non-destructive inspection (NDI), where surface coatings are safely removed to allow for detailed inspections without damaging the underlying materials.
It’s worth noting that the plasma treatment process not only facilitates inspection but also promotes greater adhesion when coatings are reapplied, increasing performance by 6 to 10 times.
The company’s relationship with the Department of Defense is rooted in years of research and development, which led to a successful partnership under the Navy’s Small Business Initiative. APS Plasma Blast systems are currently assisting in surface preparation, corrosion control, and coating removal in various military applications. This includes testing its technology to achieve flight certification with the U.S. Air Force, specifically for use on aircraft.
In addition to its defense sector projects, APS is expanding into the commercial sector, where its Plionyx system is helping various industries with their surface preparation needs. The company manufactures its products in Cary, North Carolina, and offers both products and services directly through its website .
