Although paper is not normally associated with static problems, during printing, the paper is dried and the moisture levels drop considerably leaving the substrate susceptible to static charges. When paper is introduced to a folding application such as an MBO folder, the charge on the substrate can cause jamming which will lead to down time and loss of production.

        By pos?t?on?ng two (one either side of the web) PULSElectronic ion?s?ng bars across the web prior to entry into the folder, you will neutralise the substrate to ensure that the material will fold correctly.

         Further Additions may be made depending on how much static is generated during the folding process. Static bars can be added at the transfer point and the exit point to ensure that the collation area is static free. .
