With this approach, users can easily change out electrode assemblies and ground rolls in a matter of seconds to allow for easy cleaning and effortless changeout with minimal downtime.

With the pneumatic thread-up mechanism, users are able to pivot the electrodes out of the way for easy thread-up; this unique design enables knots and splices to move easily through the gap without breaking the web or damaging the electrode.

Special electrode mounting prevents electrical shorts due to carbonizing of build up - ultimately reducing excessive spare parts inventories, clean-up time, and maintenance; the Universal’s magazine design enables each material to thermally expand at it own rate without causing electrode warping or changes in gap to ensure even treatment across the web.

Dynamically balanced treater rolls are equipped with externally mounted ground brushes; the Universal Surface Treater is compatible with all commercially available treater roll coverings.

The 1 inch (25mm) thick aluminum end plates provide increased equipment rigidity to eliminate issues associated with web wrinkles and alignment.

Incorporates slotted end plates with access covers to make roll changeovers quick and simple.

Using a micrometer, gap adjustments can become as elementary as turning a dial - reducing overall set-up time.
