What Are the Advantages of a Flame Treatment System?

Flame treating provides a method to treat the surface of products, such as plastics or glass, which alters the surface properties to allow adhesion of inks or coatings. The outer surface of plastic and glass products is typically smooth and nonporous and not conducive to adhering to any inks or coatings. A flame treatment system provides a method to run your products through a pretreatment machine that quickly and efficiently allows printing on the surface. 

Flame treatment has many advantages when compared to other methods of surface treating such as plasma and corona treaters or chemical treatments. Some benefits of flame treatment systems include:

Uniform and consistent treatment - unlike chemical treatment which could be inconsistent due to evaporation and inconsistencies in surface application, flame treatment is always consistent which is the key to producing high-quality products.

Supports high speed production - flame treatment equipment is fast, efficient and highly effective altering the surface properties of substrates in mere seconds.

Environmentally friendly process - flame treating products is a safer treatment method than using chemicals with no exposure to employees of harmful chemicals and no need for companies to determine safe methods of use, storage and disposal.

Less costly than other methods with minimal maintenance - flame treatment systems operate continually to support high-volume production with very low maintenance requirements.
