Laboratory units for research and development

IST METZ: versatile UV laboratory systems

Our UV laboratory systems are proven solutions for research and development tasks and offer maximum flexibility. They can be seamlessly integrated into existing machinery or supplied as free-standing systems with a conveyor belt. In the latter case, the complete assembly is carried out in-house - all you have to do is switch on the system.

Thanks to our wide range of technologies, we can realise your requirements precisely. Our systems can be combined with various systems, including

  • LED UV systems
  • UV systems
  • Excimer technology
  • Inertisation

Regardless of whether you need a stationary laboratory system or a customised UV transport system: Together we will develop a solution that is perfectly tailored to your needs. Our laboratory equipment is based on industrial standards and guarantees a smooth transition until your tested applications go into production.

Contact us - we look forward to realising your project!

Benefits

Air-cooled laboratory UV unit
The laboratory unit can be equipped with one or with two UV lamp units. Maximum lamp output is 200 W/cm. The available lamp lengths are 250 or 400mm. The distance between the lamp units and the conveyor belt can be easiliy adjusted using spacers. Maximum height of the substrate is 100 mm.
URS reflector technology
The integrated URS technology provides optimum adaptation of the reflector geometry and the reflection properties to the production process.
Switch and control unit for laboratory units
The lamp power is adjusted using a 3 step switching (50, 75 and 100%). Electronic ballast are optionally available. All electrical components are incorporated into the unit.
Flexible adaptable
The conveyor system is working with a conveyor belt. The speed of the conveyor is steplessly adjustable from 5 – 160 m/min.
Maintenance friendly
All components in the unit, including the lamp, reflector, pneumatic cylinder etc., are easily accessible. Lamps can be changed without tools.
Option: UV measurement
The UV system is prepared for UV measurement by default. The portable UMS-2 UV measuring instrument enables you to easily check the UV power if required. The precisely defined sensor position means that comparative measurements can be taken at any time.

Information

Equipment on a standard laboratory unit

  • The IST standard laboratory unit is equipped with one, alternatively two LED or LAMP units.
  • A single lamp unit or a combination of lamp and LED is possible
  • The array/lamp length is 360mm respectively 400mm.
  • The distance between the LED and lamp modules to the conveyor belt can be easily adjusted.
  • The standard version of the IST UV laboratory unit is equipped with URS reflector profiles.
  • Interchangeable UV lamps incorporating different spectra and doping (gallium, iron, lead) ensure optimum flexibility for UV energy output.
  • Standard wavelenght is 395 nm. Alternative wavelenght are possbile on request.
  • The laboratory unit is air-cooled.
  • The maximum substrate passage height is 50mm.

Switch and control unit

  • The stepless power control enables a dimming range of the lamp unit from 40-100%.
  • The stepless power control enables a dimming range dimming range of the LED unit from 10-100%.
  • The electrical components are integrated into the frame of the conveyor unit.

Conveyor unit

  • Teflon-coated fiberglass fabric conveyor belt with vacuum bed and puction fan.
  • The speed of the conveyor belt is steplessly adjustable.
  • The laboratory unit is equipped with castors for better mobility.

You specify your requirementes - we supply the solution

  • Depending on the specific parameters of our clients, IST designs and supplies bespoke laboratory units.
  • The laboratory unit can be designed for UV curing under oxygen-reduced conditions. This requires the use of water cooling for the undershielding as well as closed conveyor belts.
  • Use of IST Excimer technology for matting, bleaching & disinfection as well as cleaning & modification of surfaces.
  • Use of IST W/IR drying systems: Drying with hot air and infrared
  • Recipe memory: programmable system parameter settings
  • LED wavelengths: 365, 385, 405
