Exair Long Ionizing Bars

Exair’s Long Ionizing Bars reportedly eliminate static electricity on paper, film and plastics that are up to 2438 mm wide. Static electricity can attract dust and foreign materials, spoil product appearance and lead to jamming or tearing.

The profile of the electrically powered ionising bar is compact, allowing it to fit in the confined spaces of machinery where the static charge is generated. A high concentration of positive and negative ions produces fast static decay, neutralising surfaces within 51 mm of the bar.

The long length of the ionising bars allows them to be used across large production lines. According to the company, the design of the shockless bars offers improved performance and reliability in industrial applications.

The company claims that life expectancy has been extended by insertion-moulding the stainless steel ion emitters into a durable plastic.

Attaching an Exair Super Air Knife to the ionising bar can improve its ability to reduce static. The air knife delivers more ions and is effective from a greater distance, making it suitable for high-speed, high-charge applications. Air delivery can also remove dust and clean the product surface.
