PRESS DRYING/CURING--The ABCs of Press Drying

Midlik reports that the fastest growing curing/drying technology is the UV process, with a 10 to 12 percent increase in sales every year of the past decade. This popularity is due, in part, to the environmental benefits of the process.

Prime UV has expanded its product offerings with the Diamond Series. It is designed to fit interstation on sheetfed perfectors, as well as commercial web presses and provides high-intensity UV curing of both the top and bottom side of the web, at speeds of up to 2,600 fpm.
