The use of UV curing technology in the production of silicone release liners is very well established. Depending on liner material and release value, either an air cure or a nitrogen inerted cure chemistry may be chosen. For maximum flexibility, many converters select a curing system capable of both air and nitrogen cure.

UVDoctors, Inc. manufactures a dual-purpose UV curing system capable of curing either air-cure or nitrogen inerted silicone release chemistries. The light shield design incorporates the latest inerting design features to achieve oxygen levels below 50 ppm while minimizing nitrogen consumption.

We also offer UV systems for air-cure chemistries alone, as well as inerted systems for narrow web applications mounted on a chill roll.
