Why ZUV UV LED Irradiator?

With lamp irradiators, lamp temperatures that reach up to 80C during the curing process can cause heat damage to components. Controllers are too large for facilities that must be downsized to match increasingly compact products. And the cost of lamp replacement and electricity is high. Operating ease is also a problem with conventional models.


The super-compact OMRON ZUV Series UV LED Irradiator solves problems such as these that arise at manufacturing sites. The ZUV enables high-precision bonding without causing heat damage to components. At 1/8 the size of conventional lamp irradiators, it is the smallest in the world. Running costs are reduced by 90% or more by using long-life LEDs. Furthermore, it is suitable for high volume production operation.

 

 

Benefits of Using ZUV UV LED Irradiator

 

Reducing Heat Damage

 

 

High-power 365-nm UV-LED used as light source.

In contrast to lamp irradiation, the light is clear and free from the infrared light found with rising temperatures. This enables high-precision adhesion with minimal damage to components.

Reducing Running Costs

 

 

Running costs are reduced tremendously by using an LED system instead of a lamp irradiator. LEDs with a long life of 10,000 hours are used. Furthermore, the irradiation is controlled so it is used only when required, which extends the life time by 10 times. The cost for electricity and lamp replacement of 4 or 5 times per year is also greatly reduced.

LED Irradiation lasts approx. 10 times longer than lamp irradiation.

 

 

Space-saving Size

 

 

Lamp irradiators are mainly large and take up a lot of space. Considerable efforts have gone into downsizing the ZUV, resulting in the world's smallest controller (1/8 the size of the controller for a lamp irradiator).

 

The super-compact ZUV Series Irradiator can be used in control panels, cell production lines, or built-in compact devices.

1/8th the size of existing lamp type.

 

 

Super-easy Operation

 

 

The color liquid crystal display clearly indicates the irradiation progress, power and remaining time. The irradiation conditions can be set using the easy-to-use menu buttons. The user-friendly display combines the simple operation that prevents operation errors and help to improve quality.
