Bright and brilliant paints on glass and ceramics require safe solutions for drying and curing. The paint must be completely dried or cured before the next processing step can take place on the printed glass. Depending on the paint and the shape of the material, UV lamps, IR emitters or a combination of both are used for drying and curing.
Drying and Curing with Infrared Heat
Infrared transfers energy to materials without contact, generates heat where it is required and, consequently, is especially efficient in drying colours, inks and coatings.
Application example:
Drying and Curing with UV technology
