Heraeus Noblelight Presents a New Generation of Ozone Generating UV Lamps at the …
Heraeus Noblelight is exhibiting at the congress of the International Ozone Association and the International Ultraviolet Association
• Two Papers from Heraeus Experts will be presented at the IOA/IUVA World Congress 2007: “New Generation of Ozone Generating Low Pressure Lamps”; and “Measurements of Ozone Generating Low Pressure Lamps”
For the first time, the synergies and the applications of ozone and ultraviolet light (UV) will be discussed and evaluated at the…
Infrared heaters weld transport boxes reliably
Short wave infrared emitters from Heraeus Noblelight are being used to weld various sections of an HDPE (high density polyethylene) panel during its forming into a box construction within a special purpose machine, manufactured by Robot Units of Winsford.
Complex wheeled trolleys are produced from injection moulded plastic panels quickly and in an automated process. Infrared emitters from Heraeus transmit heat without contact to suit the programmed production processes. This…
Carbon Infrared Emitters Dry Materials For Outdoor Clothing
Textiles intended for use in sporting or working clothes are often water-repellent and breathable. A carbon infrared system from Heraeus Noblelight is being used to speed up the drying of a water-repellent coating on such textiles. As a result, the production speed of outdoor clothing is being increased. Moreover, the excellent controllability of the infrared system ensures that the fabric is not damaged by overheating. Heraeus Noblelight is showing carbon…
Infrared heaters save space and time in powder coating
Metals, plastics and wood – many materials today are powder-coated. Paints and lacquers are applied as powders, melted by the introduction of heat and finally cured. Electrical infrared emitters transfer large amounts of energy in a short time without the need for a contact medium. As a result, the oven length can be reduced or the production rate speeded up compared with conventional methods. Moreover, rapid melting of the powder…
Infrared emitters for the photovoltaics sector
Drying, sintering and string soldering – the manufacture of solar cells requires heat in many of the individual production steps. Infrared radiation is a high energy, contact-free method of heat transfer. This saves time and production space. The benefits of infrared heat can also be realised under extreme process conditions. Thanks to a newly developed quartz reflector, heating processes can be carried out significantly better in vacuum or at high…
Drinking Water Purification Using UV Lamps Becoming Even More Important
International Symposium at Heraeus in Hanau, Germany
- UV radiation destroys germs and pathogens in drinking water without the need for chemicals
Drinking water treatment with UV radiation was the theme of an international symposium of the materials network, Materials Valley e.V., which took place at the end of February at the Hanau headquarters of Heraeus, the precious metals- and technology group. The workshop was carried out as a joint venture involving…
Converting to Heraeus Carbon Infrared heaters cuts energy bill
By using carbon infrared (CIR) emitters from Heraeus Noblelight to achieve the rapid print drying demanded by their high speed print heads, The Lettershop Group, of Leeds has achieved significant savings in energy and running costs compared with their previous short wave infrared system. As it is air-cooled rather than water-cooled, the new drying system has also allowed further operational benefits in terms of reduced maintenance, easier cleaning and…
VARIUS® Replacement Lamps Now Available From Dealers
• Dealers Supply Replacement Lamps for the VARIUS system
• A new version of the replacement lamp allows economical lamp change
• Replacement lamps for a wide range of sunbeds
As of now, the high pressure lamp for the VARIUS system from Original Hanau SunCare is available as a replacement lamp from the dealer network. Previously, the complete VARIUS system was sold worldwide only to equipment manufacturers. VARIUS is a very compact and…
Residual moisture or nano coating - Infrared heaters dry faster
Infrared heat dries and cures lacquers and coatings reliably, as it can be precisely matched to the coating system and the product. Large mass products such as flagstones, which require a great deal of energy, are dried more quickly with infrared heat. Nano coatings, to some extent, need very high temperatures. Infrared radiation cures these coatings, without destroying their very special properties. By retro-fitting an infrared system, it is possible…
UV Lamps generate ozone and remove greases and smells from exhaust air
UV lamps break down greases in kitchen hoods
• By reducing the danger of fire, there are cost savings in the fire prevention measures which need to be taken
• Measurement of the ozone-generating UV radiation in Heraeus Noblelight’s accredited measurement laboratory
Heraeus Noblelight is showing solutions with ultraviolet light for air treatment at the ISH/Aircontec exhibition, which takes place in Frankfurt from the 6th to 10th March. A particularly interesting application…
Infrared Heating improves Quality
If burrs on cast plastic components cannot be completely eliminated, they must at least be simply removed using a repeatable process. Heraeus Noblelight, a company within the Heraeus worldwide precious metals- and technology organisation, offers infrared emitters which can be matched to component contours. The emitters transfer heat in a contact-free manner and melt the burrs away without causing any damage to the component itself. As a result production reject…
Fast and easy Infrared heat
Some industrial processes need heat only for a short time, focussed on a limited area. It is not always necessary to install a complete oven for one heating stage in a manufacturing process.
A typical example relates to tiles for wall and ceiling cladding, where the edges must be varnished and dried. Envelopes for publicity campaigns and direct mail shots have addresses printed on them using inject printers and this print…
