Intermediate curing
Gel or partially cure the coating before a subsequent finishing operation.
Prepare the coating for its next layer.
Single lamp curing for UV coated materials.
This single-lamp UV conveyor is positioned for partial curing or gelling between coating stages. APL describes it as a system for preparing a coating for the next process, rather than treating every application as a final full-cure stage.
The reference machine includes a UV lamp, blower and conveyor motor. The correct UV exposure depends on the coating and the condition required before the next layer, so line speed and lamp settings should be established for the intended process.
Explore the capabilities that shape this machine’s role on your production floor.
Gel or partially cure the coating before a subsequent finishing operation.
Move coated material beneath the UV source as part of a continuous line.
A blower is listed as part of the reference system.
Confirm the required cure state and compatible coating with APL before setting exposure conditions.
