Pressure plate static?

Hello to all.

I'm no expert in this field, but it seems to me that the plastic-covered 
pressure plate and the moving film base could create some static problems 
that could be evident on the film.  I don't know the width of the gap 
between the film path and the plastic-covered pressure plate, it seems as 
though the potential for this effect would be present.

Is there anyone out there that could add any info on this subject?
