On Flat Bag making machines as the plastıc ıs unwound from the reel, large statıc charges are generated due to surface electrons mıgratıng from one surface to another at the point of separation from the roll. As the web moves across the rollers, the statıc charge wıll ıncrease. As the web ıs under tension at this time, it will not effect the manufacturing process. When the material ıs cut for collating in the stacking area. The surface charges on the material will cause the stack to misalign resulting in problems in packing, waste material and down time.Static charge on surface will lead to disorder of stacks, slowing down of production line and increasing of junk products in addition to loss of time and money, thus this is an undesired situation.

By fitting a PULSElectronic A/C ionısıng bar after the cutting process and prıor to the stacking, you wıll neutralise the charge resulting in perfect stacking, no waste and down time, high productivity and profits.

Ink jet printers use a static charge to print on to extrusion profiles. Inside the ink jet printer there a deflector plates which will put a small static charge on the ink which confirms the letter or number required to be printed. When a profile already has a static charge, depending on what the charge on the ink is, can either repel the ink which causes damage and blockages to the printing head, or alternatively, can attract the ink to quickly causing spıderıng of the symbols and affecting the quality of the finished print.

By fitting a PULSElectronic ionısıng bar across the area that is to be printed on just prior to the print head, you will neutralise the substrate resulting in good quality printing.

As the substrate is fed from the stack, friction occurs as the sheet is dragged across the top surface of the sheet below it. This causes a static charge to build up which can create blocking (no sheets will feed as the entire stack becomes stuck together) or mısfeeds as two or more sheets are dragged through.

To prevent mısfeedıng, posıtıon two (dependant on sheet size, more may be required) PULSElectronic nozzles behind the stack. As the grippers pull the top sheet from the stack a blade of ionised air will accompany the sheet neutralising any static charge and leaving the stack free from charge. This will increase productivity whilst reducing down time and waste.

Further neutralising of charges may be required on the surface prior to printing. This can be achieved by positioning a PULSElectronic static eliminator bar across the web. This will eliminate any charge on the surface and prevent spıderıng and fogging of print.

Electrostatic surface charging is a frequent situation in covering and joining machines which operates in high speeds. This static charge should be neuralized before two plastic films are joined. In addition, filth and dust that sticks to surface will lead to printing faults and losses. During wrapping of joined two films in rolls static charge is generated because of friction.

Anti-static bar is placed heading to film surfaces, before joining to neutralize static charge in enviroment. Thus a correct neutralization is provided before joining.After that joined film is passed from anti static bar again to carry out correct wrapping. As a result a reliable production is obtained.

When magazines are printed they are conveyed and stacked on top of each other. This can cause major down time when rotating the stack as the magazines fall off.

By positioning a PULSElectronic charge system either side of the stack (positive one side, negative the other) you can induce a charge in to the stack and hold the stack in place for packing, rotating and binding.

Static charges are generated as the film unwinds, the charges will create an electro-magnetic field which attracts airborne contamination onto the substrate. These inclusions will effect print quality and create rejects.

By positioning two (one either side of the web) PULSElectronic ionısıng bars across the substrate, you will neutralise the charge preventing the electro-magnetic field from building up. This will eliminate the attraction of contamination on to the substrate and improve print quality.

Although paper is not normally associated with static problems, during printing, the paper is dried and the moisture levels drop considerably leaving the substrate susceptible to static charges. When paper is introduced to a folding application such as an MBO folder, the charge on the substrate can cause jamming which will lead to down time and loss of production.

By posıtıonıng two (one either side of the web) PULSElectronic ionısıng bars across the web prior to entry into the folder, you will neutralise the substrate to ensure that the material will fold correctly.

Further Additions may be made depending on how much static is generated during the folding process. Static bars can be added at the transfer point and the exit point to ensure that the collation area is static free. .

In emprime printing machines, paper surface is charged with static charge when paper bobbin is unwrapped. Paper attracts dust and particles until sent to drier before and after printing.These are undesired behaviours and result in lossy and incorrect production.

As seen in the figure, anti-static bar which is installed on input and output points of emprime machines will neutralize static charges on paper surface. Thus, printing is applied correctly and high quality and reliable printing is executed.

During the manufacturing of profile extrusion, large static charges are built up in two areas. Firstly, as the material cools, the molecules inside the profile will rub against each other causing static to generate. Secondly, as the profile passes across rollers or guide channels, this creates friction which will generate a static charge. This charge will create an electro magnetic field which will attract airborne contamination from the air on the product.

After cutting, the profile will attract the swarf from the saw which is difficult to remove. This will cause damage to the profile during packing, down time due to cleaning and reduce productivity.

By positioning two (one either side of the profile) PULSElectronic air boost bars after the saw, you can neutralise the profile while blowing the swarf off. The air boost bars should be positioned so the air is blowing against the direction of travel to ensure a clean profile prior to packaging.
