Compact UV LED spot curing system for consistent, repeatable curing processes
The OmniCure LX500 spot curing system is based on UV LED technology and Intelli-Lamp® technology, which monitors the temperature and service life of the LED and controls the optical stability to within
+/- 5%. This achieves outstanding process reliability. The LX500 is available with two or four channels and is the most flexible and efficient system for industrial production.
The system controller offers a robust and intuitive user interface. Up to four LED heads can be controlled simultaneously and independently at different wavelengths: 365 nm, 385 nm and 400 nm. For long-term stability of the light source, new LED heads can be calibrated to tight tolerances to ensure a repeatable curing process and precise control of UV irradiation. The LX500 features StepCure® 2.0, which allows the user to programme different profiles within a single or multiple LED heads via each channel.
