Static electricity can ruin print jobs on plastic and synthetic substrates, causing ink adhesion problems and attracting dust. Solve these issues with our specialized antistatic printing sleeves. The rotoSLEEVE Antistatic features a unique, permanently conductive surface layer that safely dissipates static charge away from the printing nip, making it the essential sleeve for printing on film.

Don't let static control your quality; take control with a purpose-built solution that guarantees cleaner, more consistent results.

Benefits of Static Control Sleeves

Prevents Ink Repulsion: Ensures perfect ink laydown on plastic substrates where static is a common problem.
Reduces Dust Contamination: A static-free surface doesn't attract airborne dust, leading to cleaner prints and less waste.
Permanent ESD Safe Solution: The antistatic properties are built into the sleeve and do not wear off over time, providing long-lasting protection.
Enables Higher Press Speeds: By managing static, you can often run your press faster on difficult substrates without sacrificing quality.

How Our Antistatic Technology Works

The Problem: As materials like plastic films and synthetic labels run at high speeds, the friction between the web and the printing sleeve generates a buildup of static electricity. This static charge attracts dust to the print surface and can repel ink, leading to pinholes, mottling, and other costly print defects.

The Rotometal Solution: Our Antistatic technology solves this problem at a molecular level. We integrate a microscopic network of advanced conductive materials directly into the surface layer of the sleeve during its manufacturing. This is not a temporary coating that can wear off; it is a permanent, integral part of the sleeve itself.

The Mechanism: This built-in conductive network creates a safe and continuous pathway for static electricity to flow away from the printing surface. As soon as a static charge is generated by friction, it is instantly neutralized by safely dissipating to grounded parts of the press.

The Result: By preventing static from ever accumulating, the sleeve's surface remains electrically neutral. This eliminates dust attraction and ensures perfect, uniform ink laydown, giving you flawless print quality on even the most challenging synthetic substrates.
