Multifaceted UV technology at ICE Europe

Monday 06. March 2023 - At ICE Europe, which will be held in Munich from 14 to 16 March 2023, UV equipment manufacturer IST METZ will be presenting UV solutions for the most complex requirements of the converting industry in Hall A5, Stand 1546.

UV specialist IST METZ shows broad product portfolio of UV, LED and excimer technology for converting applications
With the BLK UV system, IST METZ will be showing a curing unit that combines the specific requirements of the market for curing technology with the latest technical developments in UV system engineering. The unit impresses with a significant increase in drying performance compared to conventional UV systems without increasing the UV lamp output. This means more productivity with reduced operating costs. The BLK LAMPcure is also available in a version with inerting, whose specially developed inert gas concept enables low gas consumption.
Also in an inert gas atmosphere, matting is achieved using excimer technology. An excimer lamp refers to a source of ultraviolet light that has an extremely high-energy emission at a wavelength of 172nm. The result of curing with excimer lamps is super-matt surfaces that meet the highest demands through subsequent final curing with LED; UV or EB (electron-beam).
LEDcure – modular, compact, powerful
A clever modular basic concept combined with an extremely robust and compact design gives the user maximum flexibility and versatility. The system is freely scalable in length and can be adapted to all machine formats and installation situations. This makes it possible to use an LEDcure unit at different positions on a machine. Thanks to XT8 booster technology, the LEDcure has up to 30% more power than other LED systems available on the market. Other highlights of the new LEDcure include the simple exchange of the optics and the possibility of upgrading the LED chips at a later date. IST LEDcure systems are available both as near-field systems (without optics) and with special optics for effective curing even of distant objects (up to approx. 100 mm).
Curing control made easy
With the UV-Analyzer, an app-based measuring device, users can independently check the UV output (dose measurement) of their UV units at any time. The app can be downloaded free of charge. The starter kit includes the UV Analyzer Stick with cap, charging cable, lanyard and measuring strips and is distributed by UV specialist and manufacturer IST METZ.
