Flame Treatment of Plastics, Glass, Metal & More
Innovative Digital Systems (IDS) supplies industrial flame treatment systems designed to prepare plastic and other low-surface-energy materials for printing, coating, and labeling. These systems are used to increase surface energy and improve ink, coating, and adhesive adhesion on materials such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), HDPE, LDPE, and other molded or extruded plastics. Flame treatment systems are commonly integrated into manufacturing and production workflows by manufacturers and decorators to ensure consistent, durable results prior to UV printing and other finishing processes.
PYROTRACK: Ideal Flame Treatment for Flat Items
For flat or oddly shaped items, the PYROTRACK flame treatment system is the best solution for improving adhesion. Furthermore, with an impressive height clearance of 20.25 inches, the PYROTRACK lets operators prepare many different products. For example, from large signs and panels to coolers and custom promotional items, you can ensure strong UV printer adhesion on diverse flat surfaces.
- Flame & Pyrosil Treatment for stronger ink adhesion
- Adjustable Height (up to 20.25") for a wide range of products.
- 9 independent Burners for precise treatment and reduced waste.
PYROBOND 4 GL: Superior Adhesion for Cylindrical Products
When working with cylindrical items, the PYROBOND 4 GL flame treatment system offers top performance. This specialized system is the go-to solution for improving ink adhesion on objects like bottles, pint glasses, tumblers, and various other drinkware. Therefore, using the PYROBOND 4 GL ensures uniform surface treatment for printing, allowing you to print with confidence and achieve lasting durability on all your cylindrical products.
- Optimized for glass & cylindrical objects with preheating burners for superior adhesion
- Independent 4-burner control & auto blank detection to save propane and Pyrosil
- Touchscreen operation & adjustable manifold for precise, even flame application
