Taking
unique advantage of open air Corona discharge, directed
to the surface requiring treatment, 3DT's self contained
BottleDyne™ pre-treating systems set new standards
for Corona technology. It's now possible to inline
Corona treat virtually any extrusion or injection
blow molded container at line speeds of up to 7,000
parts per hour. Treatment is done delicately, quickly
and efficiently, without any damage to the surface
being treated and without any adverse effect on
the molding, printing or labeling process.
Many engineering
plastic materials have insufficient surface tensions
for printing or bonding. Polypropylene and polyethylene
are prime examples. These materials have many useful
properties, which make them materials of choice
in the container industries. However, their poor
wetability offers severe limitations when it comes
to design choices.
The
BottleDyne™ systems dramatically improve the
wet-ability of the surface of these materials. These
systems provide a surface treatment that enhances
the ability to bond or print on virtually any container
surfaces. BottleDyne increases the surface tension
of the material to strengthen its "wetability."
This creates a powerful bond between the printing
ink, adhesive or coating and the material surface
for maximum adhesion.
The state-of-the-art
self-contained floor model systems are designed
for easy installation into molding, printing and
filling lines or can be used as stand-alone work-stations.
