Regalead sales Director, Paul Edwards, explains the benefits of the RegaLead UVB85 bench – the next generation of UV bonding equipment that offers faster cure times and lower running costs for decorative glass manufacturers. Whilst older machines use long UV tubes, which take time to power up and are expensive to replace, the UVB85 uses LED lamps that are designed to last 10 years, cut running costs by 40 percent and crucially, deliver instant UV light.
The new UVB85 bench benefits from improved electronic controls, LED lights, a clear LED screen, a built-in timer, and a 2-zone control system. It also features a white light option so it can be used as a lightbox for leading and applying films of all opacities. While maintaining a similar cure area to older machines, the UVB85 includes additional setting blocks for applying bevels to oversized glass panels. Crucially, the unit is lighter and more portable, allowing it to be stored away when not in use, saving valuable factory floor space.
