N/A For applications with heat-sensitive components, interruptions in the exposure duration can slow the materials' temperature climb during the cure process. This isn't a concern with the BlueWave® MX-150 because the curing profile can be optimized to reduce the risk of substrate damage.

N/A The 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.

N/A Dymax® LED spot-curing systems generate curing energy using high-intensity LEDs instead of conventional metal-halide or mercury-arc lamps. The relatively narrow frequency band of energy emitted by LEDs results in cooler 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.

N/A Dedicated optics are not necessary to accommodate larger irradiation areas such as an 8 mm diameter spot. These larger areas can be achieved by increasing the distance between the emitting end of the standard 5 mm optic to ~10 mm.

BlueWave® MX-150 with 5 mm lightguide simulator, measured 10 mm from the surface of the radiometer

BlueWave® LED Prime using a 8 mm lightguide, measured directly on the surface of the radiometer

Both cover the same target cure area, however, the new BlueWave® MX-150 provides a much higher intensity, see chart below.

The system can be outfitted with a 3 or 5 mm Wolf-style lightguide. A 5 mm lightguide/simulator couples perfectly with the 5 mm aperture of the LED chip (Figure 8) while a 3 mm lightguide only transfers part of the UV light emitted by the LED chip (Figure 9), resulting in lower efficiency. See the intensity chart on the next page for more information.

N/A A complete BlueWave® MX-150 system features a controller/power supply and LED emitter. Emitters are available in 365, 385, and 405 nm wavelengths. Wolf-style lightguide and other accessories noted below can be added for specific applications. Components are sold separately.

Units are warrantied against defects in material and workmanship for one year from date of purchase.

N/A When used as a bench-top curing system, the unit can be paired with a stand and shielding or a Wolf-style lightguide can be connected to the system for specialized applications.
