In order to further combine pvd coating machine vacuum deposition with UV curable coating, UV curable coating equipment for vacuum deposition appears on the market, which has more performance and practical value. Received high praise from people. So what is the UV curing coating equipment for vacuum deposition composed of?

The UV curing coating equipment for pvd coating machine coating is not very different from the ordinary UV curing machine, and the components are very similar. We have mentioned this in previous UV curing machine introductions, which will not be mentioned here for the time being, but their biggest difference is the core component of the equipment, that is, the configuration of the UV lamp. There are 9 sets of UV lamps on the UV curing coating equipment for vacuum deposition: 3 ceiling lamps, 5.6kW in front of the top, 5.6kW in the middle of the top and 8.0kW behind the top; Two on the left and two on the right, each with a capacity of 5.6kW in the upper left, 5.6kW in the lower left, 5.6kW in the upper right, and 5.6kW in the lower right; There are two bottom lights, 8.0kW in front and 5.6kW in rear. The lamp tube can be adjusted in various directions, including up, down, left, right, front, and back. The entire layout is illuminated by cubes. It greatly enhances practicality and allows for the number of UV lights to be turned on as needed during production. Of course, if the applicability is not strong, it will be a bit of a waste of resources. Users still need to choose according to their actual needs when making purchases.
Compared with UV curable vacuum deposition, the UV curable coating equipment for vacuum deposition has more complex components, but the operation is also simplified. The use of UV curable vacuum deposition requires manual control. Only with professional skills and years of experience can we grasp the process well. The vacuum deposition machine uses different UV curable coating equipment, which is more intelligent. The usage process is:
1. Coating storage and inspection: Coatings should be stored in a safe and clean place, and their apparent viscosity, rheological properties, and stability should be carefully checked before application.
2. Pre treatment of the workpiece: The surface of the plastic substrate is required to be smooth and free from obvious surface defects, and then pre treatment is carried out to remove oil stains, residual release agents, static electricity, and dust from the substrate surface.
3. Coating application: Select brushing, scraping, roller coating, spray coating, and other methods according to the process specifications. The coating liquid is generally applied by spray coating and roller coating methods.
4. Leveling of coatings: After coating, there must be a certain leveling time, and sometimes it must be heated to a certain temperature (such as 40-60 ℃) to promote leveling and solvent evaporation.
5. UV curing of coatings: The flattened workpiece is introduced into the UV curing section, and the coating film is quickly cured using ultraviolet light emitted by certain radiation sources. Choose the type, quantity, layout, and distance from the workpiece of the light source in advance.
6. Extension after UV curing of coating: after a certain time of extension and standing, the workpiece will enter the pvd coating machine.
The most critical step is the UV curing of the coating. However, since the UV lamp of the UV curing coating equipment for pvd coating machine coating can freely choose the number of light sources, it will be easier to operate. However, it is important to pay attention to the calculation of curing time. If used without complete curing, it may cause serious consequences
