Static elimination products solved packaging pose
When a company changed its product packaging from blister packs to overprinted bags it encountered problems, which were solved by static elimination bars and ionising blowers.
Spark-free generator bars eliminate flash-over
The new 991R and 993R DC spark-free generator bars from Meech greatly improve operator safety by eliminating the incidences of flash-over.
Bars reduce static and packaging machine delays
Shockless AC ionising bars have been designed to reduce packaging machine downtimes and the dangers associated with static in the workplace.
Managing Director, Terry Waite, has many years experience in the packaging industry and therefore well understands the potential problems that unwanted static can cause his customers.
All plastic materials can become statically charged during processing and, in the food and beverage packaging environment in particular, results can be very dramatic.
If, for example, a line wrapping blocks of edible white fats hits problems it results in a good deal of clearing up, as well as lost productivity and profit.
"I believe in making sure my clients avoid potential problems before they have a chance to occur," explains Terry, continuing: "We supply advanced materials, such as mineral filled polyolefin, blown film or extruded sheet, from RKW in Sweden and leading edge thermoformed and stretched blow moulded containers, from Greiner in Austria.
Because our clients may not have used these materials before, we always take the opportunity to recommend that they install Meech static elimination equipment onto their lines as a matter of course.
Our business relies on the satisfaction of our customers.
Meech products and services help our clients achieve their objectives in the use of our materials. Request a free brochure from Meech International ...
That is good enough for me.".
