DYMAX Launches New High-Intensity LED Spot-Curing System and Compatible Adhesives


DYMAX Corporation launched their new BlueWave® LED Prime UVA high-intensity spot-curing system and a new line of compatible adhesives at the recent Assembly Technology Expo (ATExpo) in Chicago. The unit offers many advantages over conventional spot-curing systems including no consumable bulbs to change, no warm-up, cool cures, and constant intensity up to 50,000 hours.

The BlueWave LED Prime UVA generates curing energy using high-intensity LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) and produces the highest power of any LED spot-curing lamp on the market today. This system delivers maximum curing energy output through a 5 mm diameter lightguide, with an adjustable output up to >15 W/cm2. The relatively narrow frequency band produced by LEDs generates cooler curing temperatures for temperature-sensitive substrates and results in reduced power consumption. The lamp is RoHS compliant, offers user-friendly operation, and boasts a useful LED life of up to 50,000 hours. All of these features make the BlueWave LED Prime UVA the ideal curing system for manufacturers looking to complement their "green" initiatives. This unit is CE Marked for global use.

Specially formulated LED-curable adhesives have been developed for use with the new BlueWave LED Prime UVA and were also showcased at ATExpo. These adhesives range from ultra-fast (less than 2 seconds) to fast cure to accommodate industrial and medical device bonding, potting, and coating assembly needs. They bond in seconds to a wide variety of substrates including glass, metal, ABS, PC, PVC, and many others.

DYMAX Corporation is a leading technology-based company specializing in the formulation, manufacture, and service of advanced assembly adhesives, coatings, epoxies, masking resins, and light-curing systems.
