A leader in manufacturing equipment for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries, Shanghai-based Tofflon Science and Technology Co. serves nearly 2000 pharmaceutical companies in 40 countries. At the heart of the Tofflon offering is the autoloading and barrier systems and vial and ampoule filling lines. One issue consistently raised by customers involves medicinal bottles that generate static, through friction, while travelling along the conveyor line. Aside from well-known issues around product cleanliness, these static charges can also impact sensitive electronic weighing systems where very precise measurements are needed, as well as threatening the safety of operators. Tofflon has addressed these issues by installing Meech’s 976 Mini and 915 antistatic bar.

Meech Static Eliminators will be presenting its new Hyperion SmartControl at Fachpack 2018 (Hall 4 stand 413, Exhibition Centre Nuremberg, 25^th – 27^th September 2018). The SmartControl provides advanced supervision of the Meech Hyperion range of static control devices which will also be exhibited at the show, alongside a comprehensive range of static generation equipment and web cleaning solutions.

Meech Static Eliminators will be displaying its new Hyperion SmartControl at Labelexpo Americas (Booth 551, Donald E. Stevens Convention Centre, Rosemont, Illinois).

Meech International will partner with Polish distributor Entro Holdings to showcase its complete range of anti-static bars and its non-contact web cleaning system at PLASTPOL 2018 (Stand E35, 22^nd – 25^th May, Kielce, Poland). The globally recognised plastics exhibition for Central and Eastern Europe presents the ideal platform for showcasing how Meech’s technologies can help improve safety and product quality in the plastics industry.

Meech International is announcing the launch of its newest technology, the IonWash, designed for the fast and consistent removal of contamination from 3D components in the automotive, aerospace and electronics sectors, among others. The freestanding 3D component cleaning system incorporates extremely powerful ionisation, as well as blowing and vacuuming airflows, providing a more efficient alternative to manual cleaning.

Meech International, which has been developing static control systems for the printing, packaging and plastics industries for more than 20 years, has announced the latest addition to its highly successful and innovative Hyperion product family – the 233v4 Pulsed DC Controller.

Witney-based manufacturer Meech Static Eliminators has made its first grants to two local organisations via the Meech Centenary Trust, a ring-fenced charitable fund held and managed by Oxfordshire Community Foundation (OCF). Equating to a total of £7,718, the grants were distributed to Base 33 (a charity supporting vulnerable young adults) and OCVA (Oxfordshire Community and Voluntary Action) as part of Meech’s commitment to supporting and investing in the local community.

Milacron’s Uniloy blow moulding product brand, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of plastic processing systems, has been installing Meech’s Hyperion 929IPS DC ionising bars for the past three years to reduce the level of static activity on its blow moulding equipment.
