UV CHAMBER™ UV LED Curing Oven
Easy to Use; Irradiance ≤250/≤1000 mW/cm² (1 UCUBE™); Wavelength 275-465 nm (UCUBE™); Power Supply 100-240 VAC; Active Air Cooling With Fans, Water Cooling Optional The UV CHAMBER™ is an easy-to-use UV LED irradiation oven designed and manufactured by UWAVE and suitable for a wide range of applications like curing, bonding, photolithography or photoaging. Thanks to its ergonomic design, the UV CHAMBER™ gives full control over UV insolation processes and a great repeatability. Users can tune the time, the power of the illumination as well as the working distance. These combined features make the UV CHAMBER™ the ideal UV LED irradiation oven for semi-automatic UV curing processes or R&D lab work. Thanks to its design and the technology included, the UV CHAMBER™ provides homogeneous irradiance and an efficient UV curing for any position of the 300 mm x 300 mm tray. Multiple parameters can be easily selected and changed to fit your UV curing process such as the insolation time, the irradiance or the cured area: Time setting range from 1 s to 100 min with a 1 s resolution Power setting range from 20% to 99% with a 1% resolution Working distances from the emitting window of the UV LED curing lamp selectable with tray position: 35, 85, 135, 185 & 235 mm An intelligent security system between the lamp and the door avoids unwanted UV light exposure by cutting off the illumination if the door is open. Thanks to the security window, users can watch the interior of the UV CHAMBER™ during exposure without any risk. The UV CHAMBER™ is delivered with the UCUBE™ version that fits your optical power and homogeneity needs, or with another product on request. UCUBE™ UV LED flood curing lamps, suitable for the UV CHAMBER™, are optionally available with dispersive or collimated optics, air- or water-cooled, in two different power versions (25 LEDs, 250 mW/cm² or 100 LEDs, 1,000 mW/cm²) and with wavelengths of 275 nm, 305 nm, 365 nm, 385 nm, 395 nm, 405 nm and 465 nm. To meet actual concerns on contamination and spread of virus and bacteria, UWAVE has developed a UV-C version with the best 275 nm LED in the market. Equipped with this UCUBE™ model, the UV CHAMBER™ allows a quick & efficient disinfection process of objects and surfaces for targeted objects or R&D tests – ensuring a safe process thanks to its secured design. Any other wavelength (UV-C, UV-B, Visible and IR) is available upon request, please contact AMS Technologies for further details. The UV CHAMBER™ UV LED irradiation oven can be tailored depending on your needs: Number of light sources variable from 1 to 4 UCUBE™ systems for a larger insolated area Instead of UCUBE™, other UV LED flood curing systems such as the USPOT™ or UBAR™ can be installed Mechanical customization is available, e.g. holes for various measurement sensors (UV radiometer, temperature probe), nitrogen atmosphere adaptation, etc. Please contact AMS Technologies to discuss your customized UV LED curing oven, tailored to your requirements.

Bundled Assemblies
Fiber optic assemblies range from a single fiber cable terminated with industry standard connectors on both ends and jacketed in flexible sheathing, to a multi-fiber design consisting of multiple inputs and/or outputs, each with different cross-section areas and geometries, each requiring a custom machined endfitting and a heavy duty outer jacket to protect the assembly from being crushed. Fiberguide designs and engineers assemblies using not only Fiberguide’s own pure silica core / silica clad, silica core / plastic clad fibers, but borosilicate glass fiber, ESKA™ plastic optical fiber, fluoride fiber, chalcogenide fiber, erbium-doped fiber and polarization maintaining fiber as well. Fiberguide’s bundled assemblies are available with numerical apertures from 0.12 to 0.66, with the widest range of custom and standard endfittings / connectors and outer jackets to tailor a product to your technical and economic requisites. For high temperature applications, some fiber types can be aluminium or gold coated on request. Additionally, all fiber types can be equipped on demand with Fiberguide’s patented RARe Motheye anti-reflective technology that enhances fiber transmission performance and significantly increases the damage threshold for your application over a large wavelength range. As an option, some fiber types can be end capped to achieve higher coupled power into a fiber core by reducing the power density at the air / silica interface, commonly the point of laser damage. End cap diameters and lengths are offered for select numerical apertures and fiber cores size but can be easily customized for a variety of fiber types and specialized applications.
