Excelitas unveils UV LED curing system for inkjet printing, edge bonding and small component assembly

Excelitas Technologies Corp of Waltham, MA, USA, which provides customized optoelectronics to OEMs, has launched the OmniCure AC2 Series UV LED curing system.

The compact addition to the AC Series of UV LED curing solutions supplies high irradiance from an LED system small enough to be included in applications where space constraints restrict access to the substrate and quality cannot be compromised. The small-form-factor, air-cooled product provides high curing uniformity and allows for the adjoining of multiple systems to address any length application or working distance. The systems suit applications such as pinning, edge bonding, cable assembly and other small component assembly.

"This newest addition to the OmniCure AC Series represents our commitment to continuously be at the forefront of innovation and deliver UV curing solutions that provide highest performance with ease of use," says Oliver Scheuss, VP, Solid State Lighting and UV/Microscopy for Excelitas. "The OmniCure AC2 Series achieves just that by providing a small-form-factor option while retaining excellent output performance and flexibility for a wide range of applications in the curing of inks, adhesive, and coatings," he adds.

The AC275 and AC2110 are high-end, compact UV LED systems for users who are either looking to increase throughput by automating their manufacturing process or switching to UV LEDs for their particular applications. 

Available in 75mm and 110mm lengths, the AC2 Series features custom optics that reduce the output angle of light while providing higher irradiance and greater flexibility at various working distances. Also, the air-cooled product design allows integration into new or existing production lines, increasing throughput with minimal process interruption and ultimately decreasing costs, says the firm. 

The OmniCure product family of UV curing solutions is being showcased at the uv.eb WEST 2015 event in Redondo Beach, CA, USA (10-11 March).
