High-Intensity Curing System with the Flexibility of Multiple Systems

CE Marked – Available Globally

The BlueWave^® MX-150 curing system provides manufacturers with the curing flexibility they need, in a smaller, more efficient design. The unit is comprised of two main parts, a controller with an easy-to-use touchscreen interface and a high-intensity LED emitter which is uniquely designed to offer higher, more consistent curing intensity than traditional spot-curing systems. Curing energy is created using an LED chip in the emitter, unlike traditional spot-cure systems, where it is located in the controller. Locating the LED chip at the point-of-cure provides more consistent curing by addressing potential intensity loss caused by the use of long or bent lightguides.

With this new design, the system can be truly tailored to users’ curing needs – allowing them to choose from three different wavelength LED emitters (365, 385, or 405 nm) so optimal cures are achieved. Users also have endless set up flexibility; for automated curing processes, the emitter can be easily mounted to robotic arms or further from the controller without fear of intensity variations. When used as a bench-top curing system, the unit can be paired with a stand and shielding or a lightguide can be connected to the system for specialized applications.

Heat Control

For applications with heat-sensitive components, interruptions in the exposure duration can slow the materials’ temperature climb during the cure process. This isn’t a concern with the BlueWave® MX-150 because the curing profile can be optimized to reduce the risk of substrate damage.

Admin and Production Modes

The admin mode fully unlocks the device and allows for setting curing time and intensity cycles. Each individual curing cycle can be entered and saved as a program and recalled when needed. The production mode is designed for simple operation by manufacturing personnel. Settings and access to admin mode can be password protected using the full QWERTY keyboard.

High-Intensity Curing System with Expansion Capabilities

CE Marked – Available Globally

Dymax’s next-generation curing system, the BlueWave^® MX-250, provides manufacturers with the curing flexibility of past systems but with new expansion capabilities. The unit is comprised of two main parts, a controller with an easy-to-use touchscreen interface and a uniquely designed, high-intensity LED emitter. The LED emitter provides better uniformity and more consistent curing-energy emissions than traditional flood-curing systems over a 50 mm x 50 mm curing area. Curing energy is created using a micro-processor-controlled LED chip set in the emitter. Multiple systems can be grouped together to create larger curing pattern matrixes as needed.

With this new design, the system can be truly tailored to users’ curing needs – allowing them to choose from three different wavelength LED emitters (365, 385, or 405 nm) and providing additional flexibility with the size and pattern of the active curing area. Users also have endless set up flexibility, as this system can be set up as a bench-top unit, or for automated curing processes, the emitter can be easily mounted to robotic arms or further from the controller without fear of intensity losses.
