The BLK^®-6 is a newly developed UV drying system designed to meet the highest of industrial requirements. When compared to conventional UV systems, remarkable progress has been made in drying performance of the BLK^®-6 without having to increase the UV lamp output. This means greater productivity with reduced operating costs.

The system boasts of extremely high efficiency. Instead of the previous three BLK^®-2 type units (with 200 W/cm), the same excellent drying results can now be achieved with just two of our new BLK^®-6 units (with 180 W/cm).

Everything at a glance:

• URS^® Inlay Technology: The new URS^® reflectors have been optimised using the latest raytracing software - the UV yield on the substrate has increased while maintraining the same lamp output. The URS^® Inlay-Technology facilitates a quick change of the reflectors and thus reduces maintenance times to a minimum.

• IST UV Online Sensor: The IST UV Online Sensor has made it possible for the first time to measure the UV radiation efficiency of a UV System online and check it when required in the operating display. It is directly integrated into the reflector surface and ensures a particularly efficient production.

• IPS^® Control Generation and ELC^® Power Supply Device: The intelligent IPS^®  Control System allows for a variety of additional functions, such as the IST Remote Service. With our space-saving ELC^® Power Supply Devices, UV systems can be operated efficiently, reliably and flexibly.

• FLC^® Fast Lamp Change: The cordless FLC^® UV Lamp System facilitates a quick and easy change of the lamps. The UV lamp can be removed simply from the lamp unit by hand. Changing the lamps is possible within seconds, meaning several hours of additional machine availability troughout the year. The cleaning of the lamps is also a trouble-free procedure.

• Optimum Heat Management: Any heat introduced to the process is efficiently dissipated by the water cooling of the reflectors and the housing. The thermal load on the web is futher reduced thanks to a water-colled undershielding or cooling cylinder.

• Design and functionality: The BLK^®-6 combines a water-cooled support and reflector profile. The solid cross-section allows for lamp lenghts of up 2,300 mm. Due to its extremely compact form, the UV system can be individually integrated into the machine.
