Aerospace demands bonding without surprises
Preparing composites and metals ahead of structural bonding and painting, with a clean, repeatable process.
The surface challenge
Bonded composite structures require a perfectly prepared surface. A trace of residual mould release agent or a surface energy that is too low, and the joint loses performance. In this sector, process repeatability matters as much as the result.
Atmospheric plasma delivers controlled, documentable surface activation, with no aggressive abrasion and no solvent. It fits naturally into a process qualification approach.
What plasma changes
Structural bonding preparation
Activate composites and metals for high-performance joints.
