UV LED curing system in Automotive applications
UV technology for potting, sealing, and bonding is a crucial component in the automotive industry, addressing the demands of accelerated production cycles and heightened quality standards. The choice between conventional mercury vapor lamps and UV LED technology depends on the specific adhesive or compound used.
UV LED emitters offer a rapid curing solution, capable of solidifying spot bonds on components like sensors, matrix LED headlights, and electrical connectors within seconds. They are also efficient for drying sealing compounds, particularly in applications like sealing laser-welded joints. For broader applications such as windshield bonding or component assembly, flood lamps are deployed to ensure uniform curing across large surfaces, thanks to their optimized reflector geometries or uniform LED arrays.
High-intensity line lamps are ideal for curing adhesive beads in applications like the assembly of operating elements. To accommodate heat-sensitive components, conventional systems utilize IR filters and reflectors to significantly reduce thermal stress.
