PlasmaBlast been 300 feet above the ground on wind towers & 7 decks below on an aircraft carrier. The unit travels to the work in a single person’s hands, running on compressed air & electricity. That mobility sets it apart from any competitor.
Both finish the job, the difference is where the work happens. If your work is on a ship hull, on top of a wind tower or in the oil fields the Mobile systems is the choice. Working in a shop, lab or factory on repeatable, precision work - the Bench system is ready.
Corrosion protection is only as good as the prep underneath it. Plasma-activated surfaces adhere coatings stronger than solvent-wiped surfaces. Easily passing 1,500 hours of ASTM B117 salt fog testing. Better prep means less maintenance cost & improved coating lifetime.
Plasma flows like a fluid into cracks and crevices, fully exposing the weld and improving dye penetrant wetting into defects. Mechanical prep can smear material over the very flaw you're trying to find — plasma won't.
Plasma vaporizes away Cosmoline, corrosion inhibitors, and contamination to meet strip-back specs fast — leaving an ultra-clean surface with no solvent residue to burn into the weld. Cleaner prep in, stronger welds with less voids and porosity.
Mill oil, Cosmoline, mold release, carbon deposits — vaporized down to the molecular layers that determine bond quality. Nothing is sprayed on, so nothing has to be wiped off, rinsed away, or disposed of.
Seized fasteners usually end one of two ways: cut off or torched out. Plasma strips the paint, grease, and corrosion locking them in place without touching the threads — bolts, retaining rings, and fittings come free and go back into service.
Grinding and blasting can add damage while looking for it. Plasma strips coatings from forward-deployed assets without harming the metal underneath — so the damage you see is from the field, not from a tech. Assess in the field, decide in the field.
