McConnells Paints

McConnells was approached to solve a problem with smudging of the ink jet printing on their eggs.

Each individual egg has to be date stamped clearly for traceability. It was established that there was a need to ensure that the eggs were free of any static charge immediately prior to the printing process.

The solution was the installation of a Meech Model 915 ionising bar and a Model 904 power unit.

Application

A MEECH 915 SHOCKLESS AC BAR was selected to be fitted to the printing machine to eliminate the static from the eggs.
