UV Light Curing System Provide Cost Effective Solutions

Ultraviolet light used for curing polymers is a highly effective and cost-efficient solution utilized in a multitude of industrial and commercial applications worldwide.  UV light is used as a catalyst to cause changes in the properties of photopolymers such as resins, inks, varnishes, coatings and adhesives onto a wide variety of products.   

More and more manufacturers are harnessing the power of UV curing to improve their product quality and internal efficiencies.  UV treatment is a quick process providing many benefits that give a quick return on investment.   

UV Curing Technology 

Ultraviolet radiation is proven effective at curing specialty resins and inks in seconds, especially when emitted at 367 to 400 nanometer (nm).  Within the proper wavelength, UV technology will create a strengthened finish on products for durability.   

UV light curing technology is utilized in a multitude of industries and applications worldwide to provide cost efficient processing solutions.  Some industrial and commercial applications that benefit from UV curing include:  

• Marketing – UV drying of inks creates vibrant displays for raising brand awareness and developing increasing market share
• Automotive – UV curing of inks on knobs and buttons enhances their strength and durability, ensuring that the inks will last longer when exposed to long term use
• Medical – The medical industry has long realized the benefits of UV germicidal technology for sterilization and disinfection of medical supplies, equipment and surfaces. 
• Aerospace – UV technology enhances the strength and durability of parts and components, providing durable parts that hold up even in extreme conditions. 
• Consumer Electronics – UV exposure helps to cure adhesives and inks on circuit boards and electronic devices
• Packaging – UV inks dry quickly on various packaging materials, increasing throughput and providing durable shipping boxes that won’t fade or deteriorate
• Instant bonding of glues, adhesives, glazes, varnishes, inks and coatings used in these and many more commercial and industrial processes
