Drying of Printing Inks and Photographic Exposure with UV


The widest range of replacement UV curing lamps for all types of systems including:

Abbess • Adnos • Aetek  • Amjo • Aquatron • Arradiant • Argon • Argus • Barberan • Brewer  • Cefla • Chambon • Colight • Colordry • Comco  • Eltosch • Gallus • Giardina • Hackemack  • Idealquartz • IST • Iwasaki  • Kammann • Ko-Pack  • Natgraph • Nilpeter • ORC • Primarc • Walter Reynolds  • Sanki • Schneider • Siasprint • Spectral • Starna • Svecia • Steinemann • Superfici • Technigraf  • UV Technology • Wallace Knight ... and many more.

The operating life of a UV curing lamp is measured in hours of Ultra-violet output, which will reduce gradually throughout the life of the lamp. Standard UV curing lamps emit enough UV to cure for 1000 hours. Sunray Solutions can supply lamps with operating life in excess of 1500 hrs, when operated in suitable machines under optimum conditions.  
  
The light output required to cure the majority of inks and coatings is 120 watts per cm. However some new coatings call for wavelengths in the region of  385nm and 417nm. These and other radiation bands can be created by the addition of metal halides.

It is easy to specify the Lamp for your machine. Just call, fax or e-mail us with your lamp reference number.
Drying of Printing Inks and Photographic Exposure with IR

Infrared Emitters for the Printing Industry
Infrared radiation can be emitted in different spectra. As a result, it is possible to tune the thermal radiation to the ink or varnish.
This selection of the optimum wavelength range saves energy and cost.

Short Wave Halogen emitters produce the near infrared (NIR) spectrum. This part of the infrared spectrum transfers great amounts of energy.

Short Wave Twin Tube emitters also allow rapid transfer of large amounts of energy. These emitters are stable in lengths up to 2.2m. Short wave radiation is particularly advantageous for high rates of energy transfer and fast heating processes.

 Medium Wave Twin Tube emitters are especially good for continuous processes and can be manufactured to suit all machine widths. Medium wave radiation has the better efficiency for drying processes. Drying with medium wave radiation uses little energy, so that there is less effect on the surrounding environment and on the printed material. With water-based varnishes, energy savings of up to 50% are possible.

Carbon emitters are particularly suitable for water-based lacquers and offer the greatest power density
in the medium wave range.
