These conveyors can be outfitted with a variety of lamp configurations based on application requirements. Configuration options allow flexibility when defining intensity requirements to keep operating costs to a minimum. Standard height clearance is 0.75 in across the entire 18 in width, which is ideal for low profile parts such as PCBs, and up to 6 in across a 13.75 in width, which can be increased to either 8 in or 12 in with optional risers installed.

The Dymax Edge-Carry series of conveyors are designed for efficient curing of UV light sensitive adhesives, inks, and coatings. Parts are transported along rails instead of a traditional conveyor belt. The rails allow light energy to reach multiple sides of the part at once. This is excellent for curing items such as circuit boards that may have components on both sides.

Choosing the right lamp(s) for your Edge-Carry Conveyor

Edge-Carry series conveyors can be outfitted with one, two, or four Dymax 5000-EC lamps (sold separately). The system is also compatible with 2000-EC, and 1200-EC lamps, or Fusion F300 lamps.

5000-EC Lamps

These lamps provide moderate intensity (~200 mW/cm²) over a 6 in x 6 in (approximate) curing area. Their 400-Watt auto-switching power supplies accept 90 to 264 Volts AC and 47 to 63 Hz. With normal use, 5000-EC bulbs will retain 90% of their original intensity after 1,000 hours. 5000-EC lamps are recommended for small-to-medium throughput bonding applications. For faster or more tack-free cures, Fusion F300 lamps are recommended.
