The LV202E small UV exposure unit is a high quality steel cased unit that has been designed for use in many industries including:-
- Production of Photo Resist Printed Circuit Board PCB’s
- Hot Foil Polymer Plates
- Letterpress Polymer Plates
- Cyanotype Printing and Argyrotype
- Printmaking
- Lino Etch
- Intaglio
- Pad Printing Plates (Clichés)
- Sandblasting Stencils
- Glass etching Stencils
- ‘Rubber Stamps’ etc.
The UV Fluorescent tubes are in the base which means the artwork has to be registered on the UV sensitive area and then placed face down onto the exposure area. Coloured black, each unit has a hinged lid containing a pressure pad which, when the lid is held closed by the two retaining clips, acts to force the artwork and sensitive material firmly together on the UV illuminated area.
A 1:1 artwork, consisting of opaque transfers on translucent drafting film, is placed on the glass screen and the photo-sensitive material is placed on top. The lid incorporates a foam pad which exerts an even pressure to hold the artwork and photo sensitive material in close contact when closed. Exposure starts automatically when the six minute mechanical timer is rotated to the correct exposure time. The timer clicks off as soon as the exposure is completed.
