Static electricity can create a wide range of challenges in modern manufacturing environments. Problems such as dust attraction, electric shocks, material adhesion, quality issues and production downtime are often caused by static charges building up on material surfaces.
Particularly when handling plastic films, packaging materials, paper, labels, textiles and other non-conductive materials, static electricity can negatively impact product quality, productivity and workplace safety.
At Northern Grafics, we offer a comprehensive range of static elimination solutions from Simco-Ion. As the official distributor of Simco-Ion products in Sweden, Denmark and Norway, we help manufacturers identify and implement the right solution for their application. Our portfolio includes everything from Ionizing Bars and Ionizing Blowers to Ionizing Nozzles, Ionizing Guns and intelligent monitoring systems that help create more stable and efficient production processes. We also supply various types of Simco Ionizer solutions and Static Eliminators for industrial applications.
The optimal solution depends on several factors, including material type, working distance, available installation space and the specific production process.
For plastic films, paper, labels, packaging materials and other web-based applications, Ionizing Bars are often the preferred solution. They can be matched to the width of the material and provide precise static neutralization across the production line. For conveyor systems, loose plastic components or applications where ionization must cover a larger area, Ionizing Blowers are often a better choice.
Where installation space is limited or static charges need to be neutralized at a specific point, Ionizing Nozzles are commonly used. For manual workstations and cleaning applications, Ionizing Guns provide effective static neutralization.
In-Line Ionizers are designed for granulates and other materials transported through piping systems. For cleaning applications, we also offer Ionizing Air Knives, which combine ionization with controlled airflow for effective removal of dust and contaminants from product surfaces.
Power Units are used with ionization equipment that requires an external high-voltage supply, while manufacturers looking for Industry 4.0 functionality can integrate their equipment with the IQ Easy Platform for intelligent monitoring, diagnostics and data logging.

Static electricity can occur at many different stages of the production process, and the most effective solution often depends on material properties, line speed, working distance and environmental conditions. At Northern Grafics, we are more than a supplier of Simco-Ion equipment. We provide technical guidance and help manufacturers identify the root cause of static electricity problems in their production processes.
If you are based in Denmark, Sweden, or Norway, we are happy to visit your facility and evaluate the application together to determine the most effective solution.
