The Cascade e-Ion Plasma from Micropyretics Heaters International Inc. reportedly revolutionizes traditional processes, such as tool bit coatings, nonstick surfacing, glass bending, brazing, sintering, CVD/PVD and surface cleaning among other processes. The reducing beam enables the easy formation of nitrides and oxy-nitrides for possible use on biomedical parts, for deburring and hard-facing. The best possible reconditioning of tools and antiseize coating of parts are now low-cost and highly profitable with this affordable device.

This technology produces a highly stable thermal plasma plume using just air and electricity. It's almost silent operation uses very little energy, leaves behind no residue and is safer than traditional heating methods. The unique Cascade e-Ion Plasma is versatile. It can be used with gases like nitrogen, argon or forming gas, and on many materials like hard alloys, plastics, metals, cast iron, stainless steel, glass (coating and forming), ceramics and composites.
