Résumé : |
While the lamp head in itself is the primary generator for the heat, this article has tried to demonstrate the factors and technology available in this area to deal with this issue. The exact system used depends on the type and scale of application. Microwave technology has particular advantage in powder, fiber optic, hard coat and plastic component applications. A water-filtered lamp here is better suited to webstyle processes.
There is a significant overlap between the suitability of UV sources for different applications. Some of the processes involved can be complex. For example, when curing a coating onto pine, heat is a major issue due to sap rising from the wood and damaging the coating. A recent case has seen electrode technology removed in favor of the lower heat and high intensities associated with microwave.
With a three-dimensional object, the short length on a microwave system becomes a major advantage when trying to cover the whole surface with an even UV dose. Automotive headlights generally use a three-lamp arrangement to achieve this result.
When dealing with large sheets or webs, a water-cooled or filtered system becomes more advantageous due to the continuous span. For example, the printing of a bank note onto either paper or plastic will use this style technology. The choice of lamp head is a complex issue and the factors affecting the design chosen are not straightforward as it is in a trade-off situation. What I have aimed to do is highlight the area that needs to be considered to enable the reader to better judge the situation. |
