Problem:
One of the major causes of production line downtime is the time required to clean rollers and other equipment - a factor that directly affects the bottom line of any plant.   In the case of one print labeler, the production line came to a standstill every time staff had to remove rollers in order to remove sticky adhesive residue.

Solution:
General Magnaplate's solution was to coat the rollers in MAGNAPLATE TNS, a metal enhancing coating that acts as a release system for all types of metal parts that come in contact with adhesives. Magnaplate TNS coatings stop residue buildup and prevent pressure-sensitive tapes from adhering to rollers or other parts. Since coating, a number of months ago, the parts have continued to run without any need for cleaning downtime.

Magnaplate TNS is a superior alternative to other common industry high traction release coatings.
