LED UV systems are known for their lower energy consumption and reduced operating costs compared to traditional mercury-based systems. Our ROI calculator at GEW provides a detailed comparison of operating costs between UV LED and UV Arc systems.
LED UV systems offer precise control with predictable and stable UV output during the curing process, ensuring consistent results.
Opting for LED UV technology aligns with sustainability goals as it is environmentally friendly. Unlike mercury bulbs that require safe disposal due to toxicity and emit heat and ozone, LED UV systems are a safer and greener choice.
LED UV bulbs have an impressive lifespan, nearly five times longer than mercury bulbs, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
Mercury lamps emit a broad spectrum of UV light, suitable for various applications that require a range of wavelengths.
Mercury UV curing has a long-standing reputation for reliability and performance in the industry, making it a trusted choice for many applications.
For some applications, mercury UV systems may have lower initial investment costs compared to LED systems, making them a budget-friendly option upfront.
