UV LED LAMPS

UV LED lamps offer many benefits from conventional UV lamps including instant on/off, they emits no heat, last for tens of thousands of hours of lamp life, are scalable from 1"-1000' and can be sized exactly to your specifications. They are a non-hazardous lamp and can simply be powered by a  universal power wall adapter, no specialist or heavy duty power supplies are needed.

The state-of-the-art CF1000 Adhesive Curing System delivers the benefits of LED technology in a unique and convenient turn key system. This versatile machine is available in 3 different wavelengths [365nm, 395nm, 455nm] to meet almost any adhesive, coating or light activated process. Despite its compact size, the CF1000 offers industrial strength curing with a large illumination area for high process throughput, while the multi-head capability increases output power and provides multiple angles of illumination. Not limited by costly battery power or inconvenient charging, the robust thermal management system is suitable for continuous usage. An intuitive control panel makes the unit very easy-to-use and a footswitch control frees up both hands for work. A long LED cable allows for remote positioning and accepts domestic or international AC power. The “future-proof” controller has been designed to guarantee compatibility with LED technology as it advances toward new wavelengths and higher power levels.

CURE-ALL LINEAR 100 UV LED

Con-Trol-Cure, Inc. is proud to announce the next generation of the UV LED Cure-All™. The patented (U.S. Patent No. 7,137,696 and with other patents pending) , innovative UV curing system can be fabricated to fit your exact UV curing needs and specifications. The varied configurations seen on the left of this page were all custom designed based on customer’s requests. This product is the first fully customizable UV curing lamp system that is unlimited in its scale and shape. This flexibility makes it a natural solution for challenging UV curing environments.

This amazing new lamp can simply perform in ways that current lamps cannot. In order to truly maximize the potential of this lamp technology, you need to forget all of your current assumptions in regards to how UV curing works. This lamp technology defies accepted UV curing limitations. It is simply doing what it should not be allowed to do. It's curing faster. Its power consumption is minimal. The mechanism of cure is operating beyond current standards, due to the fact that this lamp is 100% efficient.

A need was identified to be able to accurately measure cure with UV LED's. The question was, “which wavelengths perform better?” We have defined performing better as curing better. So, we developed a procedure using the TFC-9000 to quantitatively evaluate the curing of polymers with UV LED's. This allows us to easily determine which LED wavelength we should use in designing an LED curing system for use with a specific polymer.

This recent test performed by the TFC-9000 clearly demonstrated the effects of curing a UV curable coating with different UV wavelengths. The same coating was cured with 3 unique UV LED lamps and the resultant curves were overlaid for evaluation. The TFC-9000’s measured results (in the graph above right) clearly show that while all 3 lamps cured the sample in approximately the same amount of time, the UV LED lamp at 415nm cured the coating significantly better than the other 2 UV LED wavelengths. The best curing LED wavelength is identified as the curve with the highest peak of heat. As well, we are also able to measure the time to peak (which is the cure rate). This allows us to determine the number of LED’s needed to achieve the desired speed for each customer’s specific process. In this test, to achieve the required cure rate for the specified application line speed, a linear array of 300 LED’s is needed.

SPOTCURE HANDHELD UV LED

UV LED SpotCure-P (A160-020) and UV LED SpotCure-C (A160-021)

The UV LED SpotCure series units are truly unique instruments. Battery operated in design, high density NiMH super-cells keep the UV LED SpotCure units operating for many weeks without any attention. A low battery indicator activates about one week before recharging is needed. The 395nm wavelength output provides tack-free curing in less than 5 seconds. The UV LED SpotCure units effectively cure most acrylic based adhesives.

The UV LED SpotCure-P performs two useful functions for the price of one! The outstanding dual capability provides high intensity spot curing as well as 6000°K brilliant white light for general inspection. This model features both rechargeable battery operated and A/C adapter power capability.

The UV LED SpotCure-C provides the same power and curing efficiency as the UV LED SpotCure-P, but with the flexibility of a cordless design. The UV LED SpotCure-C only includes the UV curing probe, not the white light probe included in the UV LED SpotCure-P. The UV LED SpotCure-C ships complete with a rechargeable battery and charger.

Note: Standard power supply is 110V.

SPOTCURE-B UV LED

Precision Tool for Matching Color and Coatings

The UV LED SpotCure-B™ is a bench top UV adhesive curing light that employs the latest advanced LED technology to produce high intensity UV light in the UV-A spectrum. This curing light is as easy to use as a soldering station. A "hands-free" sensor turns the light on and off when the probe is removed and placed back into its holder. The unit produces an audible signal at the end of each selectable curing cycle. Curing cycles are selectable at 10, 20 and 40 seconds and a manual selection provides continuous operation. The 395nm output is the optimum wavelength needed to cure a wide range of UV adhesives to a smooth, tack-free surface in less than 5 seconds. UV-A light is safer than other UV radiation produced by other types of UV lights currently available.

• Safe 395nm UV-A Wavelength Penetrates Thickness
• High Intensity 12mm Stainless Steel Probe
• Automatic Hands-free Activation
• Convenient "Soldering Station" Design
• Automatic Timed Cycles of 10, 20, 40 seconds
• Audible Signal at End of Curing Cycle
• Low Voltage Wall Transformer Included

Note: Standard power supply is 110V.

Designed for non-portable bench top operation, the SpotCure-B incorporates advanced operator control of the UV curing cycles. The curing probe itself is only available in a straight stainless steel configuration which positions the UV LED's at the front of the probe in order to maximize the light intensity. The convenient probe storage holder, on the top of the console, provides a "soldering station" style of operation. Activation of the curing cycle is automatic and commences simply by picking up the probe. A unique IR sensor detects the presence of the probe in the holder and controls the on/off functioning.

Operational cycling for SpotCure-B is accomplished using the front panel key pad. The light will automatically go off at the end of the cycle. The "manual" is used to keep the curing light ON continuously with an audible tone every 10 seconds. In all modes, the light can be turned off by simply replacing the probe back into the holder.
