UV curing system SunSpot 2

The SunSpot 2 is a next-generation, high-intensity, ultra-compact light curing system, and the industry’s price/performance leader. We designed it with a low cost of ownership in mind, as demonstrated through its best-in-class long-life UV / visible arc lamp and filtered input long-life light guide. The SunSpot 2 features easy-to-use exposure time controls and foot pedal activation. Weighing a mere 6 lbs. and measuring 10.5 x 8.6 x 4”, it is the smallest system in its class. The SunSpot’s new 200W lamp delivers the highest intensity in the industry. With its 18+ W/cm2 UVA and > 30W/cm2 output from 300–550nm, the system maximizes curing speed and is compatible with high-speed production automation equipment. This high intensity also makes the SunSpot 2 ideal for use with multi-pole light guides for simultaneous light delivery to two, three or four curing zones, eliminating the need for multiple lamp systems. The system ships complete with a high output long life 5mm x 1m liquid light guide. Cool light output: A dichroic-coated reflector reflects only the useable UV wavelengths of light through the light guide. The harmful high-temperature infrared is diverted away from the material being cured. A secondary in-line filter is used to further reduce heat for extremely sensitive applications. Lamp intensity control: The SunSpot 2 has a user-adjustable front-panel locking intensity control, with a 35–100% combined power adjustment range. This provides the flexibility to choose appropriate curing intensity for sensitive materials and to regulate intensity at a given level as the lamp ages.
