Advantages using UV
Products > UV dryers for stone transformation
EFFICIENCY / PRODUCTIVITY
- UV one-component mastics hardening time is within 40 seconds.
- UV mastics are the best solution to use with automatic dosage and distribution machines, because the product doesn't harden over spatulas and feeding injectors.
- Hardening depth is high thanks to High Pressure metal-Halide lamps , high UV radiation emitting. Each Lamp Unit has 5000W power, adjustable also to 2000W.
- Stone surface coming out the oven, is immediately polishable, with no additional wait states.
VERSATILITY
- UV mastic/plaster doesn't need to be mixed with chemical reagents or catalyzers. The product taken from the container is ready for use.
- Mastics applied to stone surface remains at the same density as it has been taken from the container; so it can be retouched and worked for the time necessary to the operator, without changing (no potlife time).
- The hardening process begins only when material enters in the UV oven. No possibility to get the catalisys before the UV exposition.
- Enviroment and material temperature doesn't affect the hardening time.
- After polishing, UV mastics look more brilliant than two-components ones.
- During stop line, material that remains inside the oven isn't heated excessively, because lamp power is automatically reduced at 2000W.
- Plastering hardening is uniform thanks to polished lamp reflectors that optimize the UV radiation over material exposed.
- The UV oven power is adjustable according to the line working speed. Only the necessary energy it is used, so no energy is wasted.
- Photo Electronics UV oven have small dimensions; this allows to easily install them in existing polishing lines.
A Control Panel installed near the oven, lets :
- To switch on/off the single Lamp Unit,
- To check the lamp lifetime (by hours-counter), to verify the equipment correct operating and operating faults.
- The UV oven built-in expulsion system, allows to eliminate the heat and vapours generated by chemical products (resins and mastics).
