In the industrial sector, high-intensity UVA lamps (315-400 nm) are used to initiate rapid photochemical reactions, instantly curing inks, coatings, and adhesives. This process, known as UV curing, offers significant advantages over traditional heat-based drying.
Printing: UV-curable inks are instantly dried on a variety of substrates, including paper, plastic, metal, and glass, allowing for faster printing speeds and higher quality finishes.
Coatings and Finishes: UV curing is used to harden protective coatings on everything from automotive parts and electronics to hardwood flooring and mobile phone screens, creating a durable, scratch-resistant finish in seconds.
Adhesives: UV-cured adhesives provide strong, reliable bonds for assembling medical devices, electronics, and glass components, where precision and speed are essential.
