Description	N/A High-intensity LED curing system with expansion capabilities CE Marked - Available Globally Dymax®'s next-generation curing system, the BlueWave® MX-250, provides manufacturers with the curing flexibility of past systems but with new expansion capabilities. The unit is comprised of two main parts, a controller with an easy-to-use touchscreen interface and a uniquely designed, high-intensity LED emitter. The LED emitter provides better uniformity and more consistent curing-energy emissions than traditional flood-curing systems over a 50 mm x 50 mm curing area. Curing energy is created using a micro-processor-controlled LED chip set in the emitter. Multiple systems can be grouped together to create larger curing pattern matrixes as needed.

Ability to group emitters together for large curing patterns LED emitters available in 365, 385, or 405 nm wavelengths Compatible with a variety of UV and visible light-curable materials Wavelength flexibility allows co-optimization of adhesive and curing system for optimal cure results Admin and production modes Production Mode for simple on/off operation Curing programs can be saved and easily recalled Units can be password protected so only Production Mode can be accessed by workers Touchscreen with full keyboard Improved user interface Curing programs can be easily entered, stored, and recalled when needed MX Series controllers can be utilized to power both MX-250 and MX-150 emitters Prior MX-150 customers can upgrade the software in the controller to also run MX-250 emitters. Provides greater flexibility to switch between LED Spot and Flood curing configurations. Instant on-off No warm-up period More energy efficient Efficient LED temperature management and system monitoring Maximized continuous operation without overheating Comfortable hand-held operating temperature Temperature monitoring assures maximum LED life Remote I/O interface Easily incorporated into automated systems
Admin and Production Modes	N/A Admin mode fully unlocks the device and allows for setting curing time and intensity cycles. Each individual curing cycle can be entered and saved as a program, and recalled when needed. The production mode is designed for simple operation by manufacturing personnel. Settings and access to admin mode can be password protected using the full QWERTY keyboard.
Light Emitting Diode (LED) Light-Curing Technology	N/A Dymax® LED curing systems generate curing energy using high-intensity LEDs in lieu of conventional arc lamp technology. The relatively narrow frequency band of energy emitted by LEDs results in cooler curing environments and substrate temperatures compared to traditional UV-style lamp systems, making them ideal for curing thermally sensitive materials. Dymax® LED-curing systems offer many energy and cost-saving benefits, such as no warm-up period, lower energy consumption, no bulbs to change, and more consistent frequency and intensity output for better process control.
Ordering Information	N/A A complete BlueWave® MX-250 system features a controller/power supply and LED emitter. Emitters are available in 365, 385, and 405 nm wavelengths.

ACCU-CAL™ 50-Light Emitting Diode (LED) Radiometers	N/A The typical intensity output degradation rate of the unit when run at 100 % power and a 100% duty cycle is approximately 8 % per 1,000 hours of run time. As with any type of energy source, environmental and operating conditions will have a direct effect on actual degradation rates. Intensity of the BlueWave® MX-250 can be measured with a standard ACCU-CAL™ 50-LED radiometer using flood-lamp intensity mode.
Additional Information	N/A With this new design, the system can be truly tailored to users' curing needs - allowing them to choose from three different wavelength LED emitters (365, 385, or 405 nm) and providing additional flexibility with the size and pattern of the active curing area. Users also have endless set up flexibility, as this system can be set up as a bench-top unit, or for automated curing processes, the emitter can be easily mounted to robotic arms or further from the controller without fear of intensity losses.
Note	N/A Components are sold separately. Units are warrantied against defects in material and workmanship for one year from date of purchase. Curing area data taken using Fuji UV Light Distribution Mapping System. Output intensity measured using a Dymax® ACCU-CAL™ 50-LED Radiometer in flood-lamp intensity mode.
