Eliminating static charge from molds
Eliminating static charge from molds after resin molding
You wish to eliminate the static charge from molds after resin molding since any remaining charge will cause resin to remain in the mold, which can damage the mold, cause defective parts to proceed to the next process, or result in brief production line stoppages.
[Issue] Ionizer’s operating temperature range
You wish to eliminate charge using an ionizer, but the mold remains hot immediately after molding, causing the ambient temperature to exceed 60°C 140°F and precluding use of a standard ionizer.- Molded parts remain in the mold, damaging it.
- Defective parts proceed to the next process.
[Solution] Eliminate charge using a heat-resistant model of the ER-X Ionizer (ER-X□HC).
Install an ER-X□HC Ionizer with a compact, heat- and cold-resistant bar head (head operating ambient temperature: -60 to +200°C -76 to +392°F) near the mold to eliminate charge.
Charge elimination efficiency
By connecting two heads to a single controller, you can boost charge elimination efficiency.
Key considerations in choosing a sensor

Environmental resistance
With an operating ambient temperature of -60 to +200°C -76 to +392°F, the product can eliminate charge in hot equipment like molding machines.
Space-saving design
Thanks to a super-compact head design (30 mm × 22 mm 1.181 in × 0.866 in), the product can be installed in confined spaces.
Airless charge elimination
The product can also be used in airless charge elimination applications, ensuring that moving air won’t lower the temperature of the mold or scatter resin.
