Eliminate static in packaging
Leeds-based company Packaging Options, provider of innovative packaging solutions to the UK and Irish markets, recommends the use of Meech static elimination products to all its customers.
Following the development of a GBP 100,000 printing line in 2005, this new investment in static control technology is another example of Fascia Graphics' approach to providing customers with the highest possible levels of quality and performance.
The company has invested in a wide range of Meech static control solutions based on both AC and Pulsed DC technologies, including the shockless 915 bar, the long range shockless 976 bar and the 935 fan driven air system.
Paul Bennett, managing director of Fascia Graphics, commented: "Fascia Graphics has always prided itself on its product quality, with membrane keypads, overlays, labels and associated products all meeting the highest quality standards.
We not only invest in the latest technologies to improve standards, we also carry out internal and external audits on a monthly basis and use the latest Production Control Software to monitor the performance of our delivery." This new technology will reduce the likelihood of the following common effects of uncontrolled static charge: 1 - Product misbehaviour - creating blockages and poor productivity in even the most modern machine design.
2 - Dust attraction - charged dust particles can reduce product quality and increase reject rates.
3 - Ink 'spidering' - leading to poor print quality.
4 - Operator/personnel shocks. Request a free brochure from Meech International ...
