Contamination related defects
Key sources of contamination within the production environment include:
- Human hair - a person loses, on average, 50 hairs per day.
- Clothing fibres - from operator's clothing are a frequent source of contamination.
- Human skin, on average a human discards 1 layer of skin per day.
- Printing equipment typically processes material at high speed with hundreds of moving parts which can potentially emit debris and significantly disturbs airborne contamination.
- Product contamination - product being printed is typically slit from a master roll which generates huge quantity of material debris.
