Platemaking / Screen Printing / PCB  Exposure Lamps

Conventional graphic arts platemakers (including flip-tops and overheads), screen exposure systems and vacuum frames all use specially designed lamps to emit the correct wavelength of light for proper exposure of photo sensitive emulsions.  Graphic arts cameras, photolithography, soldermask, and other equipment also use specially designed lamps.  We supply original specification lamps for maximum productivity, without the OEM price.  Call for details on other lamp types.

Ultraviolet (UV) Curing Lamps

UV curing is widely used in silkscreen, flexo, offset, CD/DVD printing and replication, medical manufacturing, bottle/cup decorating and converting/coating applications, in both digital and conventional presses.  We supply lamps for all makes and models of flatbed printers, UV ovens, conveyors and chambers and guns, in arc lengths up to 146 inches, with standard mercury doping, as well as iron and gallium.  Fusion-style electrodeless lamps available too!  Call with your special needs and problems:  We thrive on challenges!  If you don't know what lamp you have, we can duplicate any lamp from your working sample.  Just give us a call!

Please note, we supply just the lamps, not the equipment to operate them.  UV lamps require sophisticated ballasts and control equipment, so we don't recommend trying to build your own equipment.
