High Voltage - Power Supplies

PLASMATEC ARC

The PLASMATEC ARC is a high power switched mode power supply product line with state of the art CFC (Current Fed Converter) technology. The PLASMATEC ARC series is special designed for pulsed cathodic arc processes. The devices provide either straight DC or pulsed DC output current. In pulsed operation the base current and peak current and also the duty cycle can be set in a wide range. (Duty cycle can be set from 1 - 99 %, the frequency 1 - 250 Hz)

  • Optimized for “droplet less” ARC / pulsed ARC processing
  • Small Footprint
  • 12 kW up to 400 A (200 A version planned)
  • Inherent current source characteristic, that insures stable ARC current (CFPP)
  • Low stored energy
  • Advanced pulsing capability (multilevel pulsing)
  • Accurate current control with low overshoot
