Removal of dust from the surface of plastic parts

Problem: In a company producing plastic parts had a problem with dust sticking to the plastic product. It used to happen that before welding the lower plastic part with the top transparent plastic part the dust stuck to it and got inside of the finished product. They had to throw this product away because it was not possible to clean it.

Solution:  Our sales and technical representative proposed solution in the form of ionizing air knives along with air regulator and sensor that triggers air. We proposed to place air knives to the mounting structure where all the plastic parts are taken from the crates. The operator, who  connect together two plastic parts will blow them with ionized air, connect them together and put them into the machine.

Used product: For this kind of problem we proposed to use various products to eliminate static electricity by Fraser Anti-Static Techniques. One is the anti-static ionising bar 3024 L, which is an an ideal long range static eliminator for many machinery manufacturers. The other one is 4125 ionised air gun for the neutralization of electric charge along with ionised air knives 5000 producing fast-moving ionised air which can neutralise static electricity and remove contaminants.

The resulting benefits: With our solution the customer achieved clean plastic parts before welding. We helped him to reduce number of bad products, which eventually saves his money. We helped him to satisfy requirements of his customers who require a minimum error rate of supplied parts.

Method of implementation: Our sales and technical representative created a solution consist of several products suitable for this kind of problem. All of the mentioned products are installed in the customer´s factory.
