JETPEP - Jet plasma polishing

Precise metal finishing exactly where it really counts,
.

For the first time, JETPEP offers the quality and flexibility of manual finishing in a fully automated process. We combine the unique strengths of plasma polishing with the freedom of the electrolyte jet. JETPEP enables the precise cleaning, polishing, deburring and sterilization of your components during the surface treatment of metal. JETPEP is the right choice for reliable finishing, especially for surface-specific roughness requirements, complex burr patterns and hard-to-reach contours.

Minimum roughness

JETPEP achieves your target roughness of up to Ra 0.02 µm and largely retains the initial geometry with minimal edge rounding. However, the desired edge radii can also be set through targeted process control.

Unrivaled brilliance

Our surfaces also impress where aesthetics are required. Plasma polishing offers a higher gloss than electropolishing and enables an even finish on a par with hand polishing.

Improved properties

Improve the feel, corrosion resistance and cleanability of your components with JETPEP. The plasmotion finish meets even the highest requirements, e.g. in the medical technology and pharmaceutical industries.

Sustainable

Environmentally friendly and regenerable electrolytes instead of acids, dust and noise. Our proprietary electrolytes based on aqueous salt solutions are 100% harmless according to REACH and optimized for almost all metal alloys.

Plasma polishing

The geometrically accurate and environmentally friendly surface finish as an alternative to electropolishing.

Cleaning, polishing, deburring and sterilizing in a single process step? With its unique operating principle, plasma polishing offers a highly efficient alternative to mechanical or electrochemical polishing. With plasma polishing, you can achieve your desired surface finish in around 20 to 200 seconds without any significant thermal or mechanical influences - even on complex workpieces.

Applications of plasma polishing

Our technologies are convincing wherever quality and reliability count.

plasmotion° is your expert for highly efficient surface finishing with plasma polishing

Only plasmotion offers you the efficiency of plasma electrolytic surface treatment for almost all relevant alloys. From stainless steels, titanium, aluminum, copper and tool steels to special alloys, we process small, large, complex and intricate components. The unique operating principle enables you to meet your customers' surface requirements even more efficiently - regardless of whether it is a matter of smooth, technical surfaces, decorative finishing or deburring complex components.

Polishing &
Refining

Your technical and aesthetic requirements take center stage. With our unique technology portfolio, we specifically reduce roughness and achieve high-gloss surfaces.

Deburring &
Rounding

Without losing the desired edge geometry of your component, we remove burrs from the machining process in a targeted and reliable manner. If required, the contours can also be rounded in a targeted manner.

Cleaning &
Sterilization

plasmotion's innovative approach combines cleaning and processing in a single step. This shortens process chains and enables sterile surfaces without additional process steps.

Coating
preparation

We create the perfect conditions for your downstream coating processes with cleaned surfaces, roughness down to 0.02 µm or targeted surface modification.

ADVANCED SURFACE TECHNOLOGY

Our innovative technology ensures impressive results.

The world of processes for the surface treatment of metals is as diverse as their applications. However, with increasing demands on quality and flexibility, many no longer deliver satisfactory results. We are closing this gap with our pioneering plasma polishing technologies. You can achieve your desired surface faster and more reliably than ever before, and thanks to JETPEP you can now also achieve high-quality finishes locally.

Advantages of plasma polishing at a glance

Plasma polishing offers unique advantages for metals compared to conventional technologies.

Efficiency

You save time, space and interfaces, as several process steps can be combined into one with plasma polishing. While the workpiece usually has to be cleaned and degreased before electropolishing, for example, plasmotion's technology combines these steps with polishing in a single process. Possible pre-treatments are therefore no longer necessary separately.

Sustainability

The surface treatment of metals often results in chemical residues and waste, which not only pollute the environment but also mean corresponding handling and disposal costs. We have developed special electrolyte solutions for plasma polishing that meet our requirements for occupational safety and recyclability. They contain active components that are 100% harmless according to REACH.

Customizability

We adapt the electrolyte solution and the plasma polishing process individually to your workpieces and materials. This gives you optimum results in the long term and the option of reliable, fully automated process control.

Diversity

Plasma polishing works without mechanical or thermal stresses on your workpieces. Filigree or heat-treated components are thus refined without any reduction in quality. The range of applications is therefore more diverse than with many other technologies.

Precision

Plasma polishing is characterized by low and very uniform material removal. This means that your workpieces can be finished with a high degree of fidelity to the target geometry. By reducing the roughness, contours are maintained and fits that were previously impossible to achieve electrochemically are made possible. Of course, edges can also be brought to a desired radius.

Property optimization

With plasmotion technology, you can adapt your components to a wide range of surface requirements. Precise processing optimizes haptics, cleanability and corrosion resistance. This meets the requirements of various industries.
