Static Control for Slitting and Rewinding

Static charges can cause trim fragments and fibers to stick to films after slitting. The dirty, charged roll may cause production slowdowns, poor product quality and even rejected product.

A Simco-Ion Phoenix™ Ionizing Blower installed above and just after the slitting operation directs the ionization at the film and trim fragments.Static charges are eliminated during the slitting process, preventing fragments from being reattracted to the film. As a result, neutralized materials stay clean and dust free, dramatically reducing slowdowns and rejected rolls, and improving overall product quality.
