Abstract: Certain embodiments relate to treating bodies such as indium preforms on a tape, using a processing system. In one embodiment, the system is adapted to receive and process a tape, and includes a gas mixing chamber adapted to receive a plurality of gases. The system also includes a processing chamber adapted to receive gas from the gas mixing chamber and adapted to receive a tape to be processed using the gas. The system also includes a gate valve positioned between the gas mixing chamber and the processing chamber. The system also includes an inlet chamber adapted to transmit an unprocessed tape into the processing chamber, and an outlet chamber adapted to receive a processed tape from the processing chamber.
