BC-300 Benchtop UV Curing System Lower number of processing and handling procedures provide labor savings. Printed matter is ready for cutting and folding after UV processing. Wood and particleboard panels can be stacked and processed immediately. UV curing lamps, placed between stations in multi-color offset printing, cure one color before next color is applied, eliminating color bleed, scratches, scuffs, etc. Controlled temperature can be obtained where UV curing is used on heat sensitive substrates.
