MinION 2 Compact Benchtop Ionizer
Industry-leading Performance Ionizing Blower with Daisy-chain Ability
Simco-Ion, Technology Group's minION2 Blower is designed for in-tool or focused coverage ionization to control electrostatic charges in sensitive electronics assembly and automated tool applications requiring stable operation with fast discharge time performance. The minION2 is built to deliver big performance and reliability in a compact package with a practical feature set.
-
Compact design
- Self-balancing control circuit technology
- Modular wiring system
- Local LED and relay contact alarm signal
The minION2 Compact Benchtop Ionizer is well suited for applications where electrostatic attraction, ESD risk, or airborne particle contamination can negatively impact product quality, yield, or process reliability. Its compact size and focused airflow make it ideal for in-tool installation, space-constrained production environments, and controlled manufacturing areas.
Typical applications include:
-
Electronics assembly and inspection, where static charge can attract dust and fibers or cause electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to sensitive components
-
Vibratory bowl feeders and parts presentation systems, where electrostatic attraction can cause parts to stick, misfeed, or clump
-
Pick-and-place operations, reducing static-induced handling issues and improving placement consistence
-
Cleanroom environments, where controlling electrostatic attraction helps reduce particle contamination and supports consistent process conditions
-
Medical device manufacturing and packaging, where ESD control and contamination reduction are critical to product integrity and regulatory compliance
By neutralizing surface charges at the point of use, the minION2 helps reduce ESD events, minimize electrostatic attraction of contaminants, and improve overall process control in sensitive manufacturing, cleanroom, and medical device applications.
