Whether it's curing coatings on automotive parts or performing printing and curing processes in the graphics industry, these lamps deliver reliable and consistent curing performance. There is a choice of off-the-shelf, tailored or fully bespoke lamps to suit any type of industrial printing project.

Talking about Efficiency and Precision

IST INTECH's UV Cure LED lamps offer unmatched efficiency and precision, surpassing traditional curing methods. By harnessing the power of LEDs, these lights provide instant and consistent UV output, eliminating the need for warm-up time and reducing curing cycles. This not only increases productivity but also helps manufacturers achieve faster turnaround times and meet demanding production schedules. Moreover, the precise control of UV output, also known as addressability, ensures uniform curing across the target area. This eliminates the risk of under-curing or over-curing, resulting in better product quality, reduced waste, and cost savings.

When we asked Neil Stickland what advice he would give a company looking for a UV LED curing solution, he responded: ‘We feel that selecting the LED UV curing lamp at the beginning of the printing machine production cycle is crucial. This way, it will seamlessly integrate into the machine's design, ensuring exceptional performance with the chosen ink. With the right lamp from the start, you can achieve maximum efficiency, superior print quality, and avoid any disruptions or modifications down the line. It lays the groundwork for a smooth and successful printing machine production cycle, bringing your printer to market faster.’
