UV curing
Quality factors of a UV unit
High performance UV printing presses only work as efficiently if
an equally efficient UV curing system is also installed. It is very important that all installed systems work in perfect co-ordination:
UV-Lamp, Power supply device, Power controlReflectorHeatmanagementUV-MeasurementOxygen-reduced UV-systemsActive charcoal filter, Ink mist exhaust hoodIntegration into the pressUser and maintenance friendly systems

URS® reflectorA system of di-electric layers is applied on an aluminiumprofile whose geometry is adapted to the respective application in an optimum way.only UV light is reflected; the IR rays pass through to a strongly heat-absorbent layer. From this layer the heat is transmitted quickly and effectively to the air-cooled absorber profile.
Heat
Managementair and water cooling: emitted heat is evacuated and absorbed via an integrated cooling circuit.shutter technology: at machine stop, the shutters are closed automatically, thus avoiding overheating

27
Fast Lamp Change FLC®
Quick and easy lamp changes with the FLC®
system
Removal of the UV lampThe lamp is easily lifted out of the housing and removed from the unit using a simple handle.
No additional tools are necessary, as there are no screws to remove or cables to disconnect.
Inserting the new lampThe new lamp is simply placed in the lamp housing. The lamp locks into place automatically when lightly pressed into the lamp socket.
The lamp unit is now ready for use and can be inserted back into the machine.
