WebFlex

For In-Line Web Press Applications

With more than 45 years experience in building UV curing equipment, Aetek UV Systems has designed the UVXL UV systems to meet the needs of "cool UV" for interstation and end-of-press installations on high-speed web offset and flexo presses. Applications include the curing of UV inks, clear coatings, adhesives and silicone-release coatings.

UVXL System Features:

The UVXL lamp module is compact and provides cool, fast and efficient curing on paper, films and folding carton stock, permitting heat-sensitive materials to be run without heat damage. Interstation dry trapping of the ink provides precise process control at full production speeds. The lamps can be installed on a new press or retrofitted to an existing press when converting to UV. System features include air colled elliptical shutters, replaceable dichroic or standard reflector liners for heat minimization and optimum performance, and quick disconnect utilities for ease of cleaning, maintenance, and lamp replacement. The lamp modules are interchangeable and can be easily moved between print stations.
