UV Curing Coating Systems

The best UV-resistant protective coating depends on the application, but UV LED-cured coatings are widely regarded as superior due to their consistent, controlled curing at precise wavelengths. For printing and industrial surfaces, coatings cured at 395–405nm deliver excellent adhesion, hardness, and long-term durability. Fannon Products' UV LED systems ensure uniform curing intensity at 16W/cm², maximizing coating performance.

The four primary types of industrial coatings are: (1) UV-cured coatings, which cure instantly under ultraviolet light; (2) thermally cured coatings, which use heat to harden; (3) air-dried coatings, which cure through solvent evaporation; and (4) radiation-cured coatings, including electron beam systems. UV-cured coatings, supported by systems like Fannon's UV LED technology, are preferred for speed, energy efficiency, and precision in printing and manufacturing.

Fannon Products' UV LED Curing Systems operate at a wavelength of 395–405nm. This range is highly effective for curing UV LED inks, coatings, and adhesives used in screen printing, inkjet printing, and industrial coating processes, ensuring thorough and consistent photopolymerization across the substrate.

Fannon Products offers UV LED Curing Systems in three standard modular sizes: 3 inch (80 x 40mm emitting window), 6 inch (160 x 40mm emitting window), and 9 inch (240 x 40mm emitting window). This flexibility allows integration into a wide range of printing press configurations and production line widths without requiring custom tooling.

All Fannon Products UV LED Curing Systems are air-cooled, eliminating the need for complex water cooling infrastructure. This simplifies installation, reduces maintenance requirements, and lowers operational costs. The air-cooled design makes these systems particularly suitable for retrofitting into existing printing press setups or standalone new installations.

UV LED Curing Systems from Fannon Products are well-suited for the commercial printing industry, including screen printing and inkjet printing operations, as well as automotive paint curing and industrial coating applications. Their compact modular design and efficient UV output make them adaptable to a broad range of manufacturing environments requiring fast, reliable, and energy-efficient surface curing.
