  • Page 9: Features Of The Anuj5024 Aicure

    1 Features of the ANUJ5024 Aicure The UJ20: Aicure is an UV curing system that quickly hardens UV resins (inks, adhesives, and coatings) via irradiation with UV light from an LED light source. Focused irradiation of UV resins coated on minute surfaces (2 to 3 mm dia.) such as the lenses of CD, MD, and DVD players, and the LCD panels of notebook PCs and the like, with UV radiation enables precise adhesion.
  • Page 10 Features of the ANUJ5024 Aicure Universal design for easy operation Easy operation has been achieved by the product’s universal design, including the large-sized color LED display with a high level of visibility and the operation switches located at optimal locations. In simple mode, UV irradiation can be started simply by setting the UV power and irradiation time, and then pressing [EMISSION].
