Exair's new super ion air knife removes static electricity from plastics, webs, sheet stock and other product surfaces where tearing, jamming or hazardous shocks are a problem. The laminar sheet of air sweeps surfaces clean of static, particles, dust and dirt. Production speeds, product quality and surface cleanliness can improve dramatically.
Materials stay in position on an L sealer when static electricity is neutralised
Ionising bars are very ineffective without an air delivery system. When used by itself, a bar must be mounted within an inch of the charged surface to fully neutralise it. This close mounting is impossible when the static is generated in confined areas of a machine. Ion coverage is minimal on oddly configured parts or when high production speeds are involved.
Staic eliminating ions keep belts on a stacker "static free'to prevent jamming
The right type of air delivery is critical. Blowers produce an uneven, turbulent airstream that can cause the positive and negative ions to recombine before hitting the charged material. They are large, suffer mechanical wear and provide limited airflow control. The compact super ion air knife uses a small amount of compressed air to produce a balanced, laminar sheet of air to carry the ions to the charged surface, even when it is far away. Flow and force are easily controlled and there are no moving parts to wear out.
The knife floods an area or surface with static eliminating ions - up to 6,1 m away. A balanced airflow across its length will not cause misalignments to critical surfaces such as webs. Force can be adjusted from a 'blast' to a 'breeze'. The air knife is electrically powered, is shockless and has no moving parts.
