Corona
Many substrates, especially PP-PE plastics require pre-treatment to prepare or improve the bonding surface for ink adhesion. The corona plasma is generated by the application of high voltage to an electrode that has a sharp point. The plasma charge forms that the tip of this sharp point. The corona plasma treatment changes the surface energy of the substrate.
The corona pre-treatment (sometimes referred to as air plasma) device is optional equipment that can be added to a standard platform or purchased as a standalone pre-treatment system.
