Flame Treatment Systems Improve Plastic Adhesion

Flame treatment machines are used to improve the adhesion of plastic with outer coatings and applications such as inks, lacquers, laminates and varnishes.  Plastic is typically nonporous and will not bond with other coatings unless treated to alter the surface.  Flame treating is proven highly effective at altering the surface without changing the visual appearance of the part. 

When parts are run quickly through a flame treatment machine, the high heat is exposed to the product so quickly that no visible reaction is evident, although the molecular surface has been altered in a way that allows for adhesion to outer coatings.

Flame Treating Plastics Proven Effective

While there are other methods which increase adhesion such as application of a chemical coating, flame treatment has proven to be safe, effective and more cost-efficient.  With the right flame treatment machine, parts are passed through the flame quickly with even 360° exposure and can move right into additional processes such as screen printing.  There is no need to purchase, store or dispose of harmful chemicals and no chance of exposing employees to harmful chemicals during part treating. 

Flame treatment leaves the part immediately ready for the next process, without the need to wait for chemicals to dry, providing quicker cycle times which equals increase productivity and profitability. Flame treating also provides a consistent process, unlike chemical application which could be applied unevenly or dry unevenly due to evaporation.

Flame treatment systems are utilized in many surface treating process to improve the adhesion of outer plastic surfaces during many applications including:
           
       Painting
       Screen Printing
       Coating         
       Laminating
       Bonding
Systematic Automation offers flame treatment equipment that works in tandem with automated machinery and equipment, providing automated screen printing solutions and many other applications.
