LED UV Systems
State-of-the-art UV lamp technology with energy-saving light-emitting diodes (LEDs) meets LED UV ink that is perfectly matched to the wavelength of the system. The result: printed products in a new quality and immediately cured.

The rapid deployment of an LED system means that there is no long start-up time and no stand-by operation. Especially in comparison with a conventional gas dryer, customers benefit from faster production readiness and a reduction in waste and energy consumption. LED-UV is ozone- and mercury-free and does not use fossil fuels such as natural gas. All this saves resources and makes the process environmentally friendly.
The process causes the ink to harden immediately during the printing process, thus preventing it from being washed away. The final colour result of the press proof is thus reliably preserved and ink consumption is reduced. The result is printed products with brilliant colours, a particularly high-contrast print image and this on a wide range of substrates. The specially formulated LED UV ink is so resistant to mechanical abrasion and scuffing that the usual protective coating or silicone application can be dispensed with.
