Meech launches its most powerful ionizing bar

Rushil Shah, managing director at Meech Shavotech, said: ‘We have recently noticed an increased demand for longer range ionization in certain applications. Ultimately, this is what led to our decision to upgrade the Hyperion 971IPS bar. The new 971IPS-30 is powered by a +/- 30kV 24V DC Integrated Power Supply (IPS), which effectively makes it the most powerful bar we have launched to date.’

With an operating working distance of 200 to 1500mm, the 971IPS-30 suits long-range applications such as large diameter rewinds and turret winders in the plastics sector. As with the previous version of the bar, the 24V DC supply removes the need for high voltage wiring.

Meech’s Ion Current Monitoring (ICM) technology ensures the performance of the bar is maintained with the aid of local and remote alerts, which indicate when the bar needs cleaning. The titanium emitters’ design allows them to be easily cleaned and replaced when required. The Hyperion BarMaster Remote Programmer can also be used to adjust the frequency and balance of the bar, optimizing it for any application.

Other products on display will include range of web cleaning systems and Hyperion range of anti-static bars. Also on show will be the ancillary enhancements, the distance sensor and feedback system.
