To solve this issue, the converter required immediate action from the sheet producer.
The sheet producer began experimenting with material changes in-house, but struggled to achieve consistency of release.
THE IMPACT While the OnCap Denesting additive solution was developed initially to satisfy the needs of the converter, it was so effective that the sheet producer has plans to incorporate this technology into its entire portfolio of packaging solutions.

CESA™ Block Additives Antiblocking PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE Unmodified film and sheet can adhere, causing problems of separation.
CESA™ Block additives modify the surface characteristics and improve the coefficient of the friction of the sheet or film, preventing self-adhesion.

Despite using an acrylic sheet with built-in light diffusion technology, the light source was plagued by visual “hot spots.”
Also, the acrylic sheets required an additional process to cut them to size before thermoforming, which led to excessive waste and disposal costs.
Instead of purchasing pre-fabricated acrylic sheet that contained a costly diffusion additive, the Smartbatch solution enabled the customer to reduce its material costs by 50%.

THE CHALLENGE PVC sheet and profile extrusion processors were looking for ways to hit lower density targets while maintaining a high-quality cell structure.
The result was lower production density with fewer voids in the extruded sheet or profile, leading to higher quality finished goods and a reduction in scrap rates.

Static charges that build up on the surface of plastic products can attract dust and dirt, cause sheet and film to cling, and cause stacked products to stick together.
This static buildup can then cause the resulting parts, film or sheet to cling to one another, or stick to the mold or tool.
