The Stratus systems are designed by Henniker Plasma to deliver high-speed, high-precision surface activation and cleaning for a range of materials and applications. From automotive and aerospace to medical device manufacturing, electronics, and battery technology, Stratus can unlock new efficiencies in production environments that demand repeatable and reliable results.
“The Stratus range reflects our commitment to developing practical, plug-and-play plasma solutions that integrate seamlessly into real-world manufacturing workflows,” Terry Whitmore, Managing Director at Henniker Plasma, said in a statement. “With Stratus, surface treatment becomes not just more effective, but also more accessible, sustainable, and scalable.”
Available in multiple configurations with programmable work areas from 200x200mm to 800x1200mm and up to 150mm of z-axis motion, each Stratus system operates over a full 3-axis range. The built-in teach pendant makes setup intuitive even for first-time users, while onboard memory can store hundreds of treatment programs for flexible, multi-part production lines.
The technology offers improved adhesion; clean, activated surfaces; automated precision; and multi-material compatibility, including with polymers, metals, ceramics, and glass.
Every Stratus cell comes CE-certified and operates on standard mains power and compressed air, eliminating the need for additional process gases or infrastructure. The system’s proprietary high-stability plasma generator delivers consistent treatment quality, even under continuous operation.
Boasting a plug-and-play operation in minutes and enhanced user-friendly programming via teach pendant, Henniker Plasma said the systems can be easily integrated into existing workflows. Built-in safety systems, including light curtain and self-diagnostics, protect workers, while an eco-conscious process means there are no hazardous chemicals and minimal emissions.
