What is UV curing and UV energy tester

1. The basic concept of UV curingUV curing means that people use ultraviolet light to convert small molecular substances, which can irreversibly convert small molecular substances into large molecular substances, and enhance the overall quality of the product. With the development of technology, UV curing technology has been vigorously developed and used in the fields of coatings, inks, glues, etc., further enhancing the competitiveness of products in the industry.UV curing can make the manufacturing process more skillful, and the product drying speed is improved. Cost consumption is also relatively low, not only safe and hygienic in operation, but also very efficient.2. Basic knowledge of pigment color curingThe development speed of our modern paper printing technology is quite rapid, and people are no longer limited to the traditional "white paper and black characters". Pigment color curing technology is an emerging process. Because the color of the pigment is closely related to its curing speed, we often choose the UV energy light source according to different hue.Generally speaking, the faster the curing speed of the pigment color, the lower the required UV energy value. The opposite is also true. But the color of the pigment is not directly related to the speed at which the pigment dries.3. How to choose UV energy meter correctlyIt should be noted that the choice of UV energy meter should do homework in advance, and can not be used blindly causing the situation that the light source does not match the instrument. The first thing to determine is the light source to be tested next. We understand that different light sources have different bands. The light sources measured by different UV energy meters are also very different.
Linshang Technology's LS130 mercury lamp special UV energy tester is suitable for the lamp tube inside the curing furnace. It can accurately measure the UV energy value, and also shows the stable performance of the lamp tube and the specific values ​​of power and temperature. And another LED dedicated UV energy meter LS131 can measure the LED ultraviolet curing lamp, it has a wide band span, which is about 340nm-420nm.LS131 UV energy tester is a professional instrument for UV LED light source detection. The UV energy meter can detect the power and energy value of UV light source. The UV radiometer puck has wide spectral response and can test UV LED light sources in various bands such as 365nm, 375nm, 385nm, 395nm, 405nm. It is widely used in UV exposure, UV curing, UV flat printing, optical communications and other industries.
