PWS-01-0101
3SAE Plasma Work Station - Polyimide - Includes power supply (100-240V input), power cord, 80um fiber holders, tool kit, spare electrodes (set), user's manual
Polyimide-coated fibers are making rapid inroads in avionics, military, sensor, and medical applications. These tough coatings are impossible to remove with normal fiber strippers. Previous polyimide stripping technologies have either used thermal decomposition (which produces relatively low tensile strength of ~100kpsi) or strong acid/alkali chemistry (which is dangerous and produces toxic waste products).
The Plasma Work Station uses ion etching technology, powered by the 3SAE Ring of Fire, to remove polyimide coatings safely and cleanly. The resulting tensile strength is many times higher than that resulting from ordinary thermal stripping. The stripped fibers have close to as-drawn strength (>400 kpsi), with cleanly tapered
interfaces and no charring.
