Marshall and Williams Plastics Lab/Pilot Facility Receives Commissioning from Sherman Treaters for their new Corona Treater
August 14, 2001
Woonsocket, Rhode Island-USA
Marshall and Williams Plastics is pleased to announce that a Sherman Treater for in-line corona treatment has recently been commissioned at the new Marshall and Williams Plastics Lab/Pilot Facility in Providence, Rhode Island, and is now available for customer use.
The new pilot facility is equipped with a uniquely engineered two-sided treater station, which is powered by Sherman’s GX range of generators and is capable of single sided, double sided, as well as “dual pass” single sided treatment. The “dual pass” system was specifically engineered to allow difficult-to-treat substrates to be treated twice in a single pass, while using the maximum output capability delivered by the Sherman GX generator.
In addition to the flexible treating scenarios, the treater station design includes an adjustable electrode, permitting variable width treating. The treater station is also equipped with pneumatic electrode control for ease during threading and maintenance procedures.
