KBA Designs Special Rapida 105 for Color Spectrum Network

The inline Corona treatment unit is a brand new feature on the Rapida 105 that is being used for treating plastic substrates. The corona treatment stabilizes plastic dyne levels (a measure of static electricity) prior to printing for better ink adhesion. It restores the dyne level that can diminish while a plastic substrate is in storage or being shipped from overseas to the printing plant. In a Rapida press, the corona module is positioned before the first printing unit and is mounted on a dedicated substructure. The module comprises the corona unit with a 15kV quartz electrode and a dedicated transformer. The treatment will allow Color Spectrum Network to buy plastic substrates anywhere in the world and be assured of proper dyne levels.
