ELGIN, Ill. - Dec. 17, 2014 - PRLog -- Plasmatreat North America is pleased to present a brand-new surface treatment device, the RD2005U, at NPE2015.

The new Openair® atmospheric plasma device was developed to treat the plastic substrates that are increasingly used in lightweighting projects, such as SMC, carbon fiber, and glass fibre. It is a “Certified Clean and Safe” process specifically designed to smoothly integrate with existing manufacturing systems.
