Static Control Solutions For Plastic Applications

In the plastics industry static charge can cause machines to jam, parts to stick to each other, and contamination which can increase product defects that waste time and money. Materials are becoming increasingly thin and sensitive, while processes are becoming faster and more lean. Ensuring your process runs smoothly is becoming critical to guarantee your customers get a quality product. Simco-Ion solves problems for a variety of plastics applications by offering custom static control, contamination control, and web cleaning solutions. Our products are ideal for many plastic applications including:

  • Laminating
  • Blow molding
  • Film extrusion
  • Thermoforming
  • In-mold labeling
  • Injection molding 
  • Chill roller pinning 
  • Trim collection coating

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.
