The issue:

Cleanliness and hygiene are critical factors in mask manufacturing. However, the materials used, such as spun bond and melt blown fabrics, tend to accumulate static charges, which attract loose fibers and hinder proper stacking. These static forces not only disrupt the layer alignment but also slow down machine operation and cause stacking issues.

The remedy:

Install Valstat static ionising bars as depicted in the provided sketch. These anti-static bars remove static ions in nonwoven fabric manufacturing and stacking processes, resulting in clean, well-aligned, and efficiently stacked masks, while maintaining optimal machine speed and minimising disruptions.
