(openPR) - SIMCO Industrial Static Control introduces the fusION static neutralizer. The fusION delivers powerful and balanced static control in a compact package that can be installed in places where typical ionizer designs do not fit. Simple to install, operate and maintain, the fusion requires no adjustments or calibration because of Simco’s patented auto balancing (DOCC) technology.
The fusion is perfect for protecting RFID tags from damage. Static charges are commonly found in tag and label printing/production operations anywhere along the path from the feed-roll to the rewind. The charges are generated by the contact and separations of the web material from the unwind roll, and as the material travels over the various rollers and process stations as it runs through the press or converting equipment.
Unfortunately the tiny circuits of the RFID tags may not be robust enough to withstand exposure to static charges. They can experience damage from:
• Direct electrostatic discharge (ESD). When a charged object or individual touches a device, some of the stored energy is transferred or discharged either to the device or through the device to ground. The charge is transferred to the static-sensitive device causing damage or destruction.
• Electro magnetic interference (EMI). This is also referred to as electrical over-stress (EOS) in the electronics industry. It occurs when a device is exposed to a transient energy, or voltage, temporarily overstressing the circuit. The result is either immediate damage, or catastrophic failure of the device, but most often results as a latent failure that ultimately causes the device to fail.
To protect RFID devices from static electricity you need to use an active (electrical) static eliminator that can provide relatively balanced ionization (probably less than 500 or 600 volts of ion current), and is capable of neutralizing your specific application (speed, type of material, etc.). The ionizing balance (equality of positive and negative ions) of an eliminator is important because the offset voltage differential (usually negative) of a unit could damage some RFID devices.
The fusion’s auto balancing (DOCC) technology and powerful ionization capability will help prevent damage to your RFID tags.
