What is High-Speed UV Curing?

High-speed UV curing is a process in which the inks, coating, or adhesive are hardened quickly with UV LED light of certain wavelengths (Usually 365nm, 385nm, or 395nm). How it works:

1. UV light is produced in a UV LED curing module.

2. The adhesive or coating has photo-initiators that interact with the light.

3. The material immediately cures - a strong bond, which is durable.

Unlike traditional UV LED curing, fast UV LED curing gives an instant result and does not require any warm-up period. This suits it for high-speed production lines that are continuous in nature.

UV LED Curing in Inkjet: High-Performance System

UVET Inkjet system UVET, UV LED Curing, is a revolutionary product that is intended to satisfy the requirements of the current high-speed inkjet and digital printing applications. This curing lamp was designed with high performance and accuracy in mind and offers up to 30W/cm 2 of UV output, which makes it fast and uniform in its ability to cure different printing systems. It gives it the best compatibility with various UV-curable inks, coatings, and substrate options with 385nm and 395nm wavelengths- assisting in attaining excellent print quality and production efficiency.

Small and Slim Design to integrate seamlessly

The UV LED Curing through inkjet lamp has a small enclosure of 160x20mm that can be easily fitted in printing systems, both in new and existing ones. This is a small but powerful design that is suitable for systems that need precision curing in small areas. It has a modular design that allows scalable designs- ideally suitable for small-format and large-format printers.

This UV curing lamp will be working with either an upgrade of an existing setup or a new printing line, with easy installation and less downtime. The flexibility of the operation of the system enables the UV intensity and exposure time to be independently controlled to allow the system to be adjusted exactly to varied ink formulae and substrate materials.

Key Features of the UV LED Curing for Inkjet System

• High-Intensity Output:

Provides 30W/cm 2 maximum power to guarantee quick, powerful, and dependable curing of several surfaces.

• Dual Wavelength Options:

It comes in 385nm and 395nm, and is compatible with inks and coatings that are compatible with many different UV-curable inks and coatings used in digital printing.

• Adjustable Curing Settings:

Independent control of UV intensity and time of exposure to optimize the curing.

• Compact 160×20mm Design:

Allows easy connection to printing systems whose space or other mechanical needs are restricted.

• Energy Efficiency:

It consumes less power and has a high curing performance that saves a lot of money in terms of operation.

Why UV LED Curing?

Speed and accuracy are central to the high-quality results, but without reducing productivity in contemporary digital printing. The UV LED Curing Inkjet system is specifically made to do so. Its 30W/cm 2 UV intensity will guarantee instant curing of inks and reduce smudging, spreading, and imperfections on the surface.

Its dual-wavelength operation (385nm and 395nm) is versatile- the operator can tune the system to suit the photoinitiator type of ink. This guarantees enhanced adhesion, enhanced color vibrancy, and enhanced durability of prints on various surfaces, which include plastic, glass, metal, and coated paper.

More so, low heat emission of LED curing technology ensures that temperature-sensitive substrates do not warm or deform during its use. The immediate on/off mode of operation does not provide any warm-up time and helps to sustain the working process and increase the overall performance of the system.

Customized to be Precise and Fast

The UV LED Curing of the Inkjet system is constructed to serve the industries based on the fine detail and quick turnaround. It is common in UV inkjet printing, 3D printing, CAD-CAM, and CNC-based systems, where better curing precision is required to achieve precision and consistency.

Its high optical design allows the lamp to give a consistent distribution of light in the curing area, making sure that all droplets of ink are equally cured. This ensures sharp edges, uniform gloss, as well as high-definition printing, even at high printing speeds.

Environmentally friendly and energy-saving

The UV LED Curing for Inkjet system is an energy-efficient and sustainable system as opposed to the traditional mercury-based UV lamps. It runs on much less power and assists users in reducing the expenses of electricity, as well as minimizing the impact on the environment.

The curing process requires very low heat produced by LED, and therefore no cooling fans or external chillers are needed; this makes the system less noisy and also reliable. Also, it has a long life of operation up to 20,000 hours, which reduces the cost of maintenance and downtimes, ensuring that it is productive all the time.

Higher Control and Customization

The capability of this system to independently adjust UV intensity and exposure time stands out as one of the best. This leaves the operators at full liberty to adjust the curing parameters to suit the particular demands of particular types of inks, colors, or substrates.

The variable settings offer just the right combination of depth of curing and surface finish; however, the bend being made, whether it is a thin coating, thick varnish, or a textured surface. This kind of control guarantees consistent output - essential when used professionally in graphic printing, packaging, labeling, and 3D printing.

Any printing system is easily integrated.

The UV LED Curing of Inkjet lamp is created to be installed in a plug and play, with most of the industrial inkjet systems. It has a modular 160 20mm compatible design that allows a wide range of mounting orientations and configurations, allowing it to provide fast upgrades or replacements without complex system modification.

This versatility allows it to be a popular option when manufacturers, system integrators, and print service providers desire to enhance productivity and precision of curing with a minimum amount of set-up.

The Reasons Why Industries prefer it to be done in High-Speed UV Curing?

1. Speed - The greater the cycle time, the greater the output.

2. Consistency- Consistency of treatment on the surfaces.

3. Savings in the energy expense- Lowering of electricity.

4. Sustainability - Mercury, eco-friendly process.

5. Flexibility -Applicable in various industries.
