UV tunnel automation

Convert your UV tunnel: better production, lower electricity use

We replace the transformers with smart electronic ballasts and a 100% automated control system. We also build custom UV tunnels, conventional or electronic, with focus adjustment and optimised cooling airflow.

  • Lower energy use

    Power follows production instead of running flat out all the time.

  • Longer lamp life

    Electronic control considerably extends the life of the UV lamps.

  • Power synchronised with the line

    Continuous, precise adjustment of UV power to match line speed.

  • 100% automated control

    Smart electronic ballasts and dynamic power control, with no manual adjustment.
