Dymax BlueWave® QX4™ LED UV Spot Curing Lamp

About Dymax BlueWave® QX4™ LED UV Spot Curing Lamp

The Dymax BlueWave QX4 high intensity LED UV spot curing lamp features all the benefits of LED curing technology in a small, versatile unit. This system comprises a controller with a foot switch and up to four LED heads. The LED heads are available in 365nm, 385nm, and 405nm and can be outfitted with 3mm, 5mm, or 8mm diameter focusing lenses. LED heads and focusing lenses can be used in any combination and can be controlled through the system’s variable mode, a feature that allows each head to be operated independently and individually programmed for intensity and cycle times. Individual exposure times and intensity settings can be set to 1% increments from 10-100% for each LED head, giving users maximum curing flexibility.

Peak intensity is up to 18,800 mW/cm² of curing energy. The BlueWave QX4 is capable of curing compatible adhesives, coatings, sealants and other light-curable materials quickly – often in a few seconds. Full output specifications are detailed in the product data sheet.

In addition to the curing flexibility, the BlueWave QX4 also features an easy-to-use control interface that allows flexibility in setup and use of the unit. The unit can be activated by foot pedal or by PLC interface, allowing it to be easily incorporated into automated systems.

Control up to four LED wands independently for curing flexibility
