Simco-Ion Europe is a foremost provider of products for antistatic equipment. Established in 1946, Simco-Ion has been a part of the global ITW group, extending its operations across various regions including Asia, Europe, and the USA. With a rich history dating back to the early days of the textile industry, Simco-Ion has extensive experience in managing electricity in industries such as plastics, packaging, converting, and printing.
As a company committed to delivering optimal solutions for industrial processes, Simco-Ion offers a comprehensive range of products designed to enhance process speed, yield, and quality. With in-depth knowledge of production processes and the electrostatic challenges presented by new materials, high speeds, complex machinery, and new technologies, Simco-Ion is the partner you can rely on for your static electricity removal needs.
Static electricity can cause serious issues in many manufacturing processes involving non-conductive materials such as plastic, paper, wood, and textiles. These problems are particularly prevalent in the winter months when the outside humidity is low, and the indoor air is dry. In industries where printing or coating/laminating is involved, static electricity must be removed for safety and quality reasons. Therefore, static control is crucial for production processes dealing with insulated (non-conductive) materials.
There are many well-known issues caused by static electricity in manufacturing, such as sparks in machinery, shocks to operators, difficulties in processing materials, disrupted material flow, attraction of dust, and the potential for fire in machines. To address these challenges, modern industries turn to active ionization as the preferred solution for removing static electricity in a professional and controlled manner.
The active removal of static electricity is conducted with antistatic equipment that produces positive and negative ions to neutralize static charges on a given product. If the product is negatively charged, it will attract positive ions, and if it is positively charged, it will attract negative ions. With over 60 years of experience in the development and production of ionization equipment, Simco-Ion Europe offers a wide range of antistatic products including: ionizing bars (AC and DC), optimize cleaning and remove static electricity with ion nozzles, and our efficient ion guns. We also offer other antistatic solutions to improve product quality and employee safety with ion blowers. Additionally, we provide products like ion air knives and our efficient in-line ionizers. Whether you aim to eliminate static electricity in a specific process or protect operators from static electricity, our team is ready to assist.
We provide antistatic equipment for both machine manufacturers (OEMs) and production companies (end-users). We strive to deliver versatile and reliable antistatic equipment of high quality.
