General
Principle of the
digital family of
machines
The new power sources are totally digitised, microprocessor-controlled inverter power
sources. An interactive power-source manager is coupled with a digital signal processor,
and together they control and regulate the entire (plasma) process. The actual data are
measured continuously, and the machine responds immediately to any changes. The
control algorithms developed by the manufacturer ensure that the specified target status
is maintained.
This gives the (plasma) process an unrivalled degree of precision, with exact replicability
of all results, and superlative operating properties.
Machine concept
DPS 2500 plasma power source
Typical features of the new machines are
their tremendous flexibility and extremely
easy adaptability to many varied tasks.
The reasons for these welcome characte-
ristics may be found not only in the modu-
lar product design, but also in the scope
that the system gives for troublefree sys-
tem extensions.
Areas of utilisa-
tion
The DPS 2500 can be used for very many plasma processes requiring a constant cur-
rent supply (e.g. coating, etching, ...)
