UV CURING SYSTEMS

UV5 and UV10 CURING SYSTEM

Designed to economically produce 1600W of curing power, each CON-TROL-CURE^® UV5 and UV10 Curing System incorporates a complete, fully encased power supply with the revolutionary Lighthouse™ irradiator to deliver the maximum curing energy available from a standard 110V outlet. The UV10’s 160 WPI yields cure results comparable to standard 200 WPI systems... a remarkable 25% increase! The UV5 produces an impressive 320 WPI. Available with or without pneumatic-driven shutter systems.

LIGHTHOUSE 10" FOCUS HOUSING

This unique focus geometry allows the UV lamp to be placed 10" away from your substrate. By creating this large distance between the lamp and your product, many benefits are realized. Cooling is much easier and more heat sensitive substrates can be UV cured. As well, the farther away a UV lamp is from the substrate, the smaller the angle of incidence is. That is, the light hitting your product is entering at a more perpendicular angle, with less UV light being deflected off at odd angles. Therefore, more light penetrates your ink or coating and your curing power is magnified. This technology is also available in a 2-lamp system called the Lighthouse Dual Cure.

The Lighthouse Dual Cure works in the same way as the 10" Focus Housing, however, 2 lamps are configured in the housing, creating extraordinary curing power. While there are just 2 lamps providing the curing in this system, it cures with the power, intensity and speed of comparable 3-lamp configurations. The 2nd lamp gives this system a tremendous boost as shown in the graph.
