Understanding and Measuring UV LEDs

It is important to consider the variables associated with the LED source and proper measurement tools in order to understand, maintain, and control the adhesive curing process.
Jim Raymont

UV LEDs with peak spectral outputs of 365, 385, 395, or 405 nanometers (nm) are increasingly being used to cure adhesives formulated to work with LEDs. The impact of spectral differences should be evaluated based on the adhesive, photoinitiator package, and desired cure properties.

The Importance of Uniform Light Delivery from UV Curing Systems

Beyond peak intensity and curing area, differences in uniformity can impact the delivered UV light dose and change the optimal setup for flood-curing systems.
Jason Tomei

When selecting a UV flood-curing system, it is relatively easy to compare the advertised curing area and the peak intensity of the different systems and assume that higher values mean higher light delivery.
