Static sparks shock operators, damage machine control systems, ignite flammable vapors, and change the surface chemistry of carefully formulated products. Static charges attract contaminants and cause coating non-uniformities. Prevent injury and waste from static electricity on legacy lines (existing machines) by improving static control using 4 steps. 1. Identify sensitive operations where static causes problems (solvent coaters, winding rolls). 2. Find sources of static charging by completing a static survey. 3. Install static dissipators to protect sensitivity areas and to dissipate static from known sources. 4. Implement maintenance and verification procedures to maintain good static control.
