Advantages

UV curing technology offers numerous benefits to the end user, particularly in the construction industry:

• Enhanced Durability: UV-cured materials are highly resistant to wear and tear, making them ideal for use in harsh environments. This increased durability means structures built with UV-cured components require less frequent maintenance, leading to cost savings over time.
• Corrosion Resistance: One of the primary reasons for UV-curing building materials is to protect them from corrosion. For example, metal beams, struts, and square tubing are often exposed to the elements during storage and after construction. UV curing creates a protective layer that prevents rust and corrosion, ensuring the materials maintain their integrity and appearance for longer.
• Faster Production Times: UV curing is significantly quicker than traditional curing methods, which rely on heat or air drying. This speed improves manufacturing efficiency and allows for quicker project completion, reducing downtime and labor costs.
• Eco-Friendly Process: UV curing is a green technology that produces fewer emissions and uses less energy than traditional curing methods. This makes it an environmentally responsible choice for companies looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

Applications

• Structural Beams and I-Beams: UV curing coats structural beams and I-beams, which are essential components in constructing buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure. The UV-cured coating protects these beams from corrosion, extending their lifespan and reducing the need for costly replacements.
• Square Tubing and Struts: These materials are commonly used in frameworks for buildings, carports, and greenhouses. UV curing enhances their resistance to environmental factors, ensuring they remain solid and reliable even when exposed to moisture and extreme temperatures.
• Metal Framing: UV curing is also applied to metal framing components used in construction. This process helps protect the metal from rust and other forms of degradation, making the structures more durable and safe.https://www.miltec.com/industries/building-materials/structural-beams-and-i-beams/
• Electrical Conduits: Electrical conduits that house and protect electrical wiring also benefit from UV curing. The cured coatings provide a robust barrier against moisture and chemical exposure, particularly important in industrial and outdoor applications.

Xtrema Plus

Featuring a 10-inch electrodeless lamp powered by a 6000 Watt power supply, this system incorporates a user-friendly design for ease of installation, operation, troubleshooting, and maintenance. Manufacturers trust Xtrema to cure even the most optically dense inks and coatings—all while using less lamps and consuming less energy than other systems.
