Using corona treaters in extrusion applications offers several benefits, including improved adhesion, surface properties, and print quality. By improving the surface properties of the material, manufacturers can enhance the performance and durability of extruded products.
One of the most significant benefits of using a corona treater on an extrusion line is the improved adhesion of the extruded material to other materials. This increased adhesion results in better bonding between materials and enhances the overall performance and durability of the extruded products.
The corona treatment process also improves the print quality of extruded products. This benefit is especially crucial in the packaging industry, where high-quality printing is essential for branding and product visibility.
Corona treatment also enhances the surface properties of the extruded material. The treated material has improved wetting properties, making it easier to coat, print, and bond with other materials.
Installing a corona treater on an extrusion line can increase productivity by reducing the amount of rejected and reworked material. With improved adhesion, print quality, and surface properties, manufacturers can produce higher quality extruded products with fewer defects and rejections.
By using a corona treater, manufacturers can increase the flexibility of their extrusion processes. With improved adhesion and surface properties, manufacturers can use a broader range of materials and coatings, resulting in more versatile extruded products that meet a wider range of customer needs.
The improved adhesion, surface properties, and print quality that result from using a corona treater can lead to improved customer satisfaction. Customers will appreciate the higher quality and durability of the extruded products, which can result in repeat business and positive word-of-mouth referrals.
