LEDcure NX is a water-cooled LED UV curing system for industrial production processes. The system operates at a peak wavelength of 395 nm and combines high UV performance with precise power control and a flexible, modular system architecture. With a maximum electrical power consumption of 79 W/cm, the system achieves an efficiency of more than 45%.
LED UV technology provides immediately available UV output without a warm-up phase. The 395 nm LED light source contains no mercury and does not generate process-related ozone through its UV emission. Compared to conventional UV lamp systems, heat transfer to the substrate can also be reduced. Actual process conditions depend on the material, formulation, working distance and production speed.
The optimised radiation characteristics of LEDcure NX are designed to provide uniform UV curing across the entire working width. The specially developed optical design creates a plateau around the peak intensity and maintains high irradiance over an extended area. This supports uniform and reproducible curing results.
For reliable process design, irradiance and UV dose must be matched to the respective printing ink, coating, adhesive or other UV-reactive material, as well as the substrate and production speed.
Thanks to its space-saving, modular design, LEDcure NX can be adapted to different machine configurations. The LED UV system is suitable for both new installations and retrofitting existing production lines. Its system architecture is also prepared for future upgrades to UVC LED technology, supporting long-term flexibility in production planning.
Demand-based power control can help avoid unnecessary electricity consumption. Combined with water cooling and precise zone control, LEDcure NX supports reliable production processes, including applications involving temperature-sensitive substrates.
The modular LED chip design with independent circuitry ensures high reliability and supports an extended component service life through balanced load distribution. Thanks to an integrated emergency operation function, the system can remain operational in the event of certain partial failures.
LEDcure NX is therefore designed for high operational reliability and reduced downtime risks. The system is particularly suitable for continuous industrial production processes with demanding requirements for process stability and consistent curing quality.
