UV Curing Lamps

Ultraviolet light sources have many applications in industry, health and hygiene, printing, security and many more.

With over 30 years of experience in specialist lighting, Expert Lighting Distribution  can supply high-quality products for OEMs in these industries.

What is UV Curing?

UV Curing is the process of using Ultraviolet Light to initiate a photochemical reaction that generates a cross linked network of polymers.

Unlike other technologies such as infrared curing, UV is considered a low temperature process and is therefore ideal for using on substrates that are unsuitable for use with heat producing products.

As cure occurs via polymerisation rather than evaporation, processing times are dramatically improved without the need for drying ovens and large amounts of racking. This faster drying time also helps to reduce flaws and errors as well as improving consistency.

As UV energy has unique interactions with many different materials, Ultraviolet curing can produce unique products that have characteristics that can not be produced via other means.

This has made the technology essential for certain industries where changes in strength, durability, chemical resistance and more are required.
