Optima Conveyors
Everything you need and nothing you don’t.
That’s how we designed the Optima Conveyorized UV Curing
line. The Optima series provides the optimal feature set for
curing printed POP materials without the high-end features
of American Ultraviolet’s standard and Super Cool UV Curing
conveyors.
The result is a low cost UV curing conveyor with the
proven reliability of an American Ultraviolet curing unit.
Removing the “frills” gave us the chance to add some new
features such as the quick-change lamp assembly and modular
frame rails.

Super Cool Conveyors
American Ultraviolet Company's state-of-the-art "Super Cool" conveyorized curing system incorporates the latest technology in air flow that maintains substrate temperatures at or below 98 degrees Fahrenheit.*
All systems are elliptically focused and incorporate replaceable reflector liners in heat sink extrusion. Each lamp assembly utilizes steel-bladed cooling fans and high-voltage keylocked connectors.
American Ultraviolet's exhaust/vacuum system, lamp evacuation airflow design and infrared filters insure low operating temperatures for heat-sensitive substrates.
American Ultraviolet's variable-speed conveyor includes digital feet-per-minute indicator, uv resistant coated fiberglass conveyor belt, solid-state speed control and adjustable legs. All conveyors are constructed with solid beds throughout their length to guarantee stability at any height.
"Super-Cool" curing systems are available in single-, double- and triple-lamp configurations. Each lamp is individually controlled and can operate at 300, 200 or 125 watts per inch. additive lamps operate at 400 and 300 watts per inch.
*Based on ambient air temperature of 72°F, belt speed at 60 FPM and lamps at 200 WPI.

Retrofit Systems
Now one unit can do conventional as well as UV curing. Adding ultraviolet curing to your existing gas, electric or infrared dryer is easy with American Ultraviolet Company's irradiators, lamps and power supplies. Our custom-designed exhaust/vacuum system installs below the belt, and the curing system installs on top. The American Ultraviolet Curing Irradiator Retrofit Kit includes a labeled, digital, encased power supply; a focused, air-cooled lamp assembly; optical shielding; and an optional vacuum/exhaust hold-down with blower--everything you need to convert an existing dryer to air-cooled UV.
American Ultraviolet's air-cooled conveyor-cure systems are designed for:
- Curing UV inks, coatings and adhesives
- Retrofitting to existing conveyors and infrared ovens
