High Pressure UV Curing Lamps

Offering a high-speed, cost-effective solution, UV curing has quickly become the curing method of choice for many industries.  The process involves using high intensity ultraviolet lights to create a photochemical reaction to produce a byproduct that instantly cures adhesives, coatings, inks, varnishes, decorative glazes, and lacquers.  UV curing systems offer the advantage of being easy to operate and maintain, and are used by a range of industries including automotive, industrial, electrical, medical and optical.

The demands of your application will determine what type of UV curing lamps will best suit your needs.  The three primary types of lamps are:  High pressure UV (HPUV), Medium pressure UV (MPUV), and Amalgam lamps.  LightSources and LightTech’s sales team is very experienced with all three types of lamps and will help guide you through the process of designing your own unique system using our standard UV curing lamps or customized ones. 

Our exceptional HPUV curing lamps, also known as Metal Halide lamps, offer short wavelength outputs that peak at 254nm and 365nm.  While lamps emit energy in both of these ranges, the strongest emission is found in the short wavelengths.  If an application requires higher wavelengths and needs to alter the spectral output such as in the reprographic industry, additive lamps are created by dosing the lamps with heavy metal compounds.  HPUV lamps are also used for applications in photochemistry, cosmetics, and the food and beverage industries as well as for sewer rehabilitation.
