Wires & Cable

Plasma surface pre-treatment solutions for the wires and cable industry are designed to improve surface energy and enhance adhesion performance on a wide range of insulation and sheath materials, including PE, PP, PTFE, and silicone. By using atmospheric plasma technology, the process effectively removes contaminants and activates the cable surface without mechanical abrasion or chemical primers. This ensures strong bonding for printing, marking, shielding layers, potting, and overmolding applications.

Plasma treatment is particularly beneficial for high-performance and low-surface-energy materials where conventional adhesion methods are insufficient. The systems can be integrated directly into cable extrusion or rewinding lines, enabling continuous, high-speed processing with consistent results. As a dry and environmentally friendly process, plasma treatment reduces VOC emissions and eliminates the need for solvent-based surface preparation.

With precise control and uniform treatment around cylindrical geometries, plasma solutions help manufacturers achieve durable markings, reliable insulation bonding, and improved long-term product performance in demanding industrial and automotive applications.

Keylink Technology offers plasma surface treatment solutions for the wires and cable industry by delivering integrated, inline systems that activate cable surfaces, improve adhesion for printing and bonding, and ensure consistent, high-speed processing performance.
