The Ionix Static Eliminator makes your 
machine’s compressed air a static eliminator!

Graphic Arts Model 200/300/400

Reliable, safe, automatic performance in ANY air fed machine - presses, folders, die cutters, laminators, collators or binders
The Ionix Static Eliminator requires no electricity or maintenance. Simply install the unit in the feeder air line or spray powder air line and forget about it. The Ionix Static Eliminator works automatically whenever air passes through it. The unit contains no high voltages, nuclear materials, or hazardous components to worry about. It will not affect your printing. Ionix is easy to install. Identify the main blower air line, cut it and push the hose ends over the self fitting ends of the Ionix.

How it works in feeders of air fed presses, folders, collators, inserters, etc.
Due to friction and movement, paper develops an static electrical field between the sheet surfaces which causes them to attract to each other. The air in between these sheets is an electrical insulator and prevents the attracting charges from coming together and neutralizing each other. The Ionix Static Eliminator uses the air going to the feeder to eliminate that field by making the air electrically conductive. When feeder blower air passes through the Ionix Static Eliminator, the air going in is an electrical insulator but comes out electrically conductive. When that Ionix treated air is then blown between the sheets of paper by the feeder, it pushes out the air that has been acting like an electrical insulator and replaces it with air that is acting like an electrical conductor. The charged sheets can conduct their electrical charge through the Ionix air and the sheets electrically separate.

Sheet Press installations (Sheet fed presses, die cutters, laminators etc)
Static in paper in feeders
If you are experiencing doubles or miss feeds, the problem is most likely static in the paper. Ionix installed in the main feeder line will eliminate that problem.
Static in plastic in feeders
If you are experiencing difficulties feeding plastic in your press, you can eliminate the problem by installing TWICE the recommended Ionix in the main feeder air line. This is necessary since the static in plastic is substantially higher than static found in paper. Install the Ionix in SERIES (end to end with a short hose between them) in the main feeder air line.

Press spray powder systems
Ionix reduces spray powder usage while improving coverage. When compressed air blows into the spray powder, it circulates the spray powder which creates static. These static charges cause the powder to attract to itself and not to spread lightly or smoothly. This charged spray powder is also attracted to the metal surfaces of the grounded press causing the powder to coat the press. Ionix installed in the spray powder unit prevents the buildup of static in the powder which reduces powder usage, provides a more even coating and keeps the press cleaner.

Mailing Equipment
The laser imaging process induces a static charge in paper which jams the the inserter pockets .Installing an Ionix in the main separator air line going the the inserter pockets blows Ionix air between the paper dissipating the static. Install one Ionix Model 300 for each 4 pockets in the inserter.

Folders
Feeding coated or copied/laser imaged material
If you are experiencing doubles or miss feeds in the feeder feeding copied or coated paper, installing a minimum size Ionix Model 200 in the feeder air line will eliminate the problem.
Delivery static
If you are experiencing static in the delivery of your folder, THIS IS NOT DUE TO STATIC IN THE FEEDER! This is static generated in the buckle folding process. As copied paper is folded, static builds up on the folder roller which is transferred to the folded paper and causes the paper to stick together in the delivery. To solve this problem you must mechanically modify your folder. Ionix has retrofit mod kits for folders which will eliminate static in the delivery. Please call Ionix at 800-246-1784 for details and pricing for your particular folder.
