Solutions For the Automotive Industry

As the use of plastic parts in the automotive industry rises, the need for static control increases. During the manufacturing process it is important that plastic parts, vehicle bodies, and moldings are clear of static charges. Uncontrolled static can attract dust and other debris that needs to be cleaned prior to the painting process. Don’t let defects and reworks impact your product quality or bottom line.

Simco-Ion offers static eliminating products to the automotive manufacturing industry. Our air knives and blow-off systems are designed to provide heavy-duty cleaning or drying on both flat and contoured surfaces.

Teknek Contact Cleaners are available for optimum cleaning of sensors, circuit boards, glass and leather surfaces in the automotive industry:

IQ Power Nozzle

The IQ Power Nozzle is a shockless pulse DC ionizer engineered to operate at 7 kV. The IQ Power Nozzle is compatible with Simco Ion’s IQ Power Static Neutralizing system. When used with the IQ BPS Power Supply, users of the IQ Power Nozzle have worry free, one-touch setup and continuous active monitoring. The IQ Power Nozzle’s compact size allows for neutralizing surfaces in a variety of applications.

Two configurations are available:

High Efficiency Perforated (HE): Offers exceptional performance with significantly lower air consumption compared to other nozzles. Recommended for use in applications less than 18 inches from the target, where a high volume of air is not required. 

Slotted: Recommended for applications where a more focused ionized air stream is needed.

The IQ Power Nozzle can be user installed in two different positions on the high voltage wiring. When installing a single nozzle it should be located at the end of the high voltage wiring in the ‘dead end’ position. Additional nozzles can be installed upstream from the dead end nozzle in the ‘in-line’ configuration. Up to four nozzles total can be placed on a single high voltage run.
