The cold UV radiation system was developed especially for use in temperature-sensitive production processes such as printing mono films or shrink sleeves. The Advanced Cold Mirror Technology ACM makes it possible to filter out a large portion of the interfering infrared radiation. The ACM system has an integrated cold mirror. Its geometry and coating considerably lower the proportion of IR radiation, which is directed toward the substrate. If you compare UV dryers that have an ACM system to direct radiating UV systems, the IR radiation with ACM systems is reduced by up to 85%.
System-Features:
arc length 100mm - 2600mm
high UV intensity
significant IR reduction
power up to 240 W/cm
continuously variable power control available, 20% - 100%
all standard and many special spectra
Advantages:
low substrate temperature
a great variety of materials can be printed
high register accuracy
productivity increase
reduced energy expenditure
easy integration
low cost of maintenance
Cost reduction
The efficiency of ACM is based on its high intensity in the focus of the reflector-mirror combination. This high intensity focus leads to a considerable reduction of manufacturing costs, also campared to many direct irradiating UV units. Additional investments in the production facility such as water-cooled chill drum or cooling plates are unnecessary. For printing mono films or shrink sleeves, the ACM can be equipped with an air-cooled chill drum for extremely temperature sensitive materials.
Configuration features:
can be operated with up to 17 kW of power without additional water cooling of the reflectors
shutter system
individual arc lengths matched to the specific application
