What is the plasma construction made of? R&D V1 V2

The PlasmaStatic systems are constructed with:

  • R&D Unit: Lab-grade materials with aluminum housing
  • V1 Systems: Industrial metals with powder-coated surfaces
  • V2 Systems: 304 stainless steel construction for food-grade applications
What are the differences between R&D, V1 and V2 systems? R&D V1 V2
Feature R&D V1 V2
Purpose R&D & Testing Pilot Production Industrial Scale
Throughput 60g/hr 500g/hr 400-2000g/hr
Construction Lab-Grade Industrial Metals Stainless Steel
Automation Manual Semi-Auto Full Control System
Which system should I use for research and testing? R&D

The R&D PlasmaStatic unit is specifically designed for research applications:

  • Small batch testing (5g increments)
  • Method development and optimization
  • Biomass screening and analysis
  • Prototyping new separation protocols
How does V2 improve on V1 systems? V1 V2

The V2 represents a significant evolution with industrial upgrades:

  • Food-grade materials: 304 stainless steel construction
  • Smart sensors: Keyence airflow monitoring + auto-adjustment
  • Dust management: Integrated HEPA filtration system
  • Control system: Touchscreen interface with recipe memory
  • Throughput: 300% increased capacity (up to 2kg/hr)
Can I use the R&D unit for commercial production? R&D

No. The R&D unit is explicitly not intended for commercial use:

  • Limited capacity (60g/hr maximum)
  • No automation features
  • Not built for continuous operation
  • Designed for method development only
Is the separation method the same across all models? R&D V1 V2

Yes. All systems use the same core technology:

  • Electrostatic separation with plasma field stabilization
  • No solvents or chemicals involved
  • Mechanical separation of trichome heads from plant material
  • Identical physics principles across all models
What happens to the spent biomass after processing? V1 V2

Spent biomass can be reprocessed to maximize value:

  • Solvent extraction (ethanol, hydrocarbons)
  • Secondary mechanical separation
  • Infusion products
  • Typical recovery: 92-97% in first pass
Do I need a specialized facility to run these systems? V1 V2

Basic requirements:

  • Cool, dry environment (18-22°C ideal)
  • Standard electrical outlets (100-230VAC)
  • Compressed air (8 CFM @ 100 PSI for V1/V2)
  • No cleanroom needed (cGMP packages available for V2)
Can I integrate V2 into my automated production line? V2

Yes. The V2 offers several integration options:

  • Standard PLC interface (Modbus RTU/TCP)
  • Optional conveyor belt systems
  • Automated material flow control
  • Remote monitoring capabilities
  • Recipe management system
