C1070 static problem

[faultman]

Has anyone experienced a massive static problem on the C1070. When copies exit the machine everything appears fine but as the prints stack on top of each other they become stuck together with static. Happens on all types of stock and paper weights. Machine is brand new.

I noticed that thin paper curls around the fusing belt, never though it would be a static problem.

Just my 2 cents,change the power outlet,make sure that you have the right voltage

Check if the power grid is grounded and the accessory is with Brooms grounding paper

Tape a piece of Bounce in the exit area

Hi. I have exactly the same situation on a new C1070 - although uncoated paper is less affected. Also the machine gives electrostatic shocks all the time! Have you managed to resolve your issues - if so, how?

I would make sure that the anti-static brushes are all properly grounded in the finisher. Perhaps I might try to add a few more anti-static brushes. =^..^=

Make sure your setting your paper correct. What type of paper and what weight.

We run all day and night and only have major static when we fold in our bindery...


Good Luck...

What are the accessories for your machine? Is it using the dehumidifier?

I have a standard set up:


Bizhub C1070 Engine Only



Suction Fed Paper Drawers



Relay Unit



High Cap Stacker



EFI Fiery (Embedded)




we use mainly digital coated paper, that has given no issue on our other digital presses (past or present)

The static will be eliminated with the fitment of the new RU517 this is supplied by K-M FOC.
