Easier, brighter and greener UV LED technology

UV system leader Air Motion Systems Inc marked first look at PEAK LED-UV product series in the recent PRINT ’09 expo. The patent-pending PEAK LED-UV design from the company is built around a high brightness chip platform that achieves at least twice the radiant power available from recent-generation UV LEDs, and operates at just 20 percent of the electricity required of a conventional mercury arc lamp.

PEAK LED-UV technology represents a revolutionary step forward in the graphic arts industry and the UV curing arena. As a 100 percent solid-state device, there are no moving parts to maintain in the LED UV module, no heat is emitted from the light source, and at a 20,000+ hour estimated life of the light-emitting diodes, and the system potentially never requires a lamp change.
