NOVEL PLASMA TECHNIQUE TO COAT ANILOX ROLLS
Free inquiry fromInstitute of Physics, National Academy of Sciences of UkraineDescription
Anilox rolls are the key elements of the aniline ink distribution system used in printing for processing of paper and textile materials.
Based on recent developments in plasma science, a novel
plasma-based functional coating laboratory facility for the
ion-plasma-treatment of anilox rolls includes equipment for
pre-heating, ion cleaning and magnetron sputtering. It is
particularly suitable for the high quality depositing of metallic
and ceramic coating onto the cylindrical outer surface of anilox
rolls.
Features:
| Ion purification system | Magnetron system | ||
| Energy | 300 - 2000 V | Activating gas | nitrogen, oxygen |
| Working gas | argon | Working gas | argon |
| Pressure | (6 - 12) x 10-4 Torr | Pressure | (2 - 8) x 10-3 Torr |
| Diameter | 10 - 40 mm | Sputtering TiN rate | 0,6 nm/s |
Advantages:
Due to the incorporation of a plasma-based ion cleaning stage into
the technological process, the film-substrate adhesion is increased
and the overall production time is reduced.
A plasma-based approach to surface cleaning is a remedy for the
environmental contamination problems posing by the chemical-based
cleaning and depositing methods.
