K 2019, known as “The World’s No. 1 Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber” takes place in Düsseldorf from 16 to 23 October.

Visit us at stand A59 in Hall 10 and experience our diverse range of surface treatment technology for the plastics industry.

We will display four standard corona units: The VE2-B model is for extrusion and converting applications, capable of double-sided treatment. The VE1-D and VE1-E models are also for extrusion and converting applications, but capable of distributing a higher power charge or running at higher speeds than the B model. The last unit on display is the VE1-L; a compact model designed for lamination environments where space is at a premium.

All four Corona units are equipped with our state-of-the-art iCC7 control panel that logs function and maintenance and has remote access for performance and fault analysis. By using a proprietary hardware interface, all Vetaphone Corona systems can be controlled centrally from the main machine HMI, allowing one operator to manage several lines at the same time.

The continuous focus on development of surface treatment technology and intelligent control is part of our aim to allow customers to move beyond industry 4.0. Frank Eisby, our CEO, explains: “Many see the integrated display as the end-game – we see it as the beginning and have made it available on our iCC7 unit since 2017.  The aim is to make the use of our technology completely intuitive, simplifying the control of the Corona process as much as possible”. To achieve this, we have drawn extensively on feedback from our customer database to refine control to its most logical and optimum point.

Join us at the K-show in Düsseldorf and get further information on how we have taken corona surface treatment to a new level of sophistication.
