The system is successful on the market.

AURA-WAVE (Sairem)

AURA-WAVE is an Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) coaxial plasma source. It has been designed to be self-adapted once the plasma ignited. A magnetic field combined to the electromagnetic wave allows the creation of plasma at low pressure due to Electron Cyclotron Resonance. AURA-WAVE microwave plasma source has been designed to sustain microwave plasma over several decades of pressure, i.e. from 10⁻⁴ mbar to a few 10⁻² mbar and from a few watts depending on the gas.

kINPen® MED

The kINPen® MED is a member of the kINPen® family certified as a class IIa medical device. In medical practice, the kINPen® MED is primarily used for treating chronic wounds and pathogen-induced skin diseases. One of the key features allowing the certification as a medical device is the low gas temperature of typically 35...38 °C. A vast number of publications investigating the kINPen® MED is available, the section below presents only selected examples.

The device is commercially available from neoplas med GmbH.

MiniMIP

Due to its high degree of flexibility, the microwave plasma source MiniMIP is suitable for various different applications and experiments. The plasma can be ignited in both pure argon and pure helium, and furthermore, an admixture of molecular gases to can be used to provide an optimal matching of the process chemistry to the requirements of the specific application.

Miller Auto-Axcess™ 450

This plasma source is a commercial welding power source produced by Miller Electric Manufacturing Co., Appleton / USA. This welding system is precise, digitally controlled and software-driven. Several different wire feeding and operator interface options are available and configurable to desired application. The welding system allows a simple method that controls arc length for pulse processes and wetting action and allows changing weld programs to take advantage of up to eight programs of Multi-MIG welding process capabilities.
