Discharging of shrink sleeve films

Shrink sleeve films must be able to be laid out evenly in a scale before packaging.

A shrink sleeve film is unwinded on a cross-cutting machine and then cross-cut. The cross-cut films are deposited in a shingle on a conveyor belt. Small film packets are then formed from the scale by hand. The packets are placed in a box.

Cross-cut plastic films stick together in the scale.

The cross-cut shrink sleeves are highly electrostatically charged. When a cross-cut sleeve was placed on the conveyor, it stuck to the guide rollers. The shingle could not be formed evenly on the conveyor belt. It was also not possible for the operator to remove the sleeves from the shingle and create small packs from them, as the films stuck together. Production was not possible due to the charge.

Our solution

Suitable discharge bars were installed in an optimal position and with adapted discharge angle. The one-sided air support optimizes the process.

flexBAR R60L

HIGH-END discharge for highest discharge performance The VARIO discharging bar flexBAR R60L with its free-standing, air-assisted spring tips has a very high passive discharge effect, which enables active operation even at low AC high voltage. To increase the range, a small amount of air optionally flows through the hollow spring tip. The air flow additionally serves the continuous cleaning of the emission tip.
