UV Curing Solutions
Conveyor Curing
Since 1960
American Ultraviolet has brought
superior ultraviolet conveyor curing technology, and customer service,
to screen and digital printers who have discovered that UV saves money
in many ways, including:
•
UV dryers take up less space, so shops can utilize more
revenue-producing equipment
•
UV uses less energy, therefore significantly cutting operating costs
•
UV ink goes farther than solvent-based ink (up to 60 percent per gallon)
•
UV curing can increase throughput four times over
solvent-based processes
•
Clean-up time practically disappears, adding to the time available
for production
•
UV technology doesn’t pollute, inside or outside the shop, which means
healthier employees, and a healthier, “greener” environment
The Lesco division of American Ultraviolet also provides curing equipment,
including conveyor, rotary, bottle and flood lamp curing equipment that is
environmentally responsible and economically rewarding.
UV curing instantly solidifies coatings, inks, and adhesives with a cool,
clean beam of light. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) found in the noxious,
flammable solvents used by conventional coatings, adhesives and inks are
completely eliminated. The ultraviolet curing process is a photochemical
reaction where free flowing molecules, excited by UV radiation, link to form
solid polymer chains. Small amounts of chemicals known as “Photoinitiators”
act as catalysts, allowing the UV-curable adhesives & coatings to remain
liquid, then instantly solidify or “cure” the material the split second UV light
hits them.
UV curing involves 100 percent solids in a fluid state, with no hazardous
substances released during the cure process. The environmental benefit:
the amount of liquid applied before the curing process is the same amount
remaining after the curing is complete - no leftovers; no VOC emissions;
no compliance problems.
