PSII Plasma Source Ion Implantation
Omni-Directional & Simultaneous Ion Implantation of Geometric Forms

Plasmalloy is a process in which high velocity ions are embedded beneath the surface of the treated part; physically and chemically altering the near surface layer.
Plasmalloy allows high throughput, economical treatment of large batches of manufactured components or large heavy industrial tooling.

Advantages:


• Low temperature process

• No dimensional changes, no loss of bulk properties

• No risk of delamination

• Increase surface hardness and corrosion resistance

• Reduce sliding friction

• Prepare the surface for plasma assisted deposition of thick, adherent, wear resistant coatings.

Applications:


• Tools, dies, molds, and punches

• Precision bearings, rods, rollers and shafts

• Automotive powertrain components

Plasmalloy is an advanced, environmentally conscious technology for producting harder,  longer lasting tooling and manufactured components. Empire hard Chrome in partnership with Northstar Research Corporation, has assembled the world's first commercial Plasmalloy facility.
