Vetaphone at K 2019

Vetaphone, the Danish manufacturer and pioneer of Corona surface treatment will be displaying a diverse range of surface treatment technology for the plastics industry at K 2019 in Düsseldorf.

Four standard Corona units from its extensive portfolio will be on static display: The VE2-B model is for extrusion and converting applications, capable of double-sided treatment. The VE1-D and VE1-E models are also for extrusion and converting applications, but capable of distributing a higher power charge or running at higher speeds than the B model. The last unit on display is the VE1-L; a compact model designed for lamination environments where space is at a premium.

All four Corona units are equipped with Vetaphone’s state-of-the-art iCC7 control panel that logs function and maintenance and has remote access for performance and fault analysis. By using a proprietary hardware interface, all Vetaphone Corona systems can be controlled centrally from the main machine HMI, allowing one operator to manage several lines at the same time.

Vetaphone’s continuous development of surface treatment technology and intelligent control are part of the company’s strategic plan to allow its customers to move beyond industry 4.0. CEO Frank Eisby explains: “Many see the integrated display as the end-game – we see it as the beginning and have made it available on our iCC7 unit since 2017.  The aim is to make the use of our technology completely intuitive, simplifying the control of the Corona process as much as possible”.  To achieve this, Vetaphone has drawn extensively on feedback from its customer database to refine control to its most logical and optimum point.
