UV Curing Solutions Engineered for Label and Packaging Printing
IUV will exhibit at Label Forum Japan 2026 from October 14 to 16 at Tokyo Big Sight, Japan.
Visit Booth C-1 to explore IUV LED UV and mercury UV curing solutions for label and packaging printing.
IUV provides complete systems for new press integration, equipment retrofits, replacement projects, and customized OEM applications.
Our solutions support label printing, flexographic printing, offset printing, narrow web printing, coating, varnishing, and other industrial curing processes.
At the exhibition, visitors can discuss UV lamps, cooling systems, power supplies, controls, and press integration directly with the IUV team.
One Partner. Two UV Technologies.
IUV was among the first suppliers to introduce an interchangeable LED and mercury UV curing system.
The interchangeable design gives printers greater flexibility when working with different inks, substrates, and production requirements.
Users can select LED UV or mercury UV while retaining a coordinated system structure. This supports easier equipment management and more flexible production planning.
The intelligent control system automatically identifies the installed LED or mercury UV lamp cassette. This helps operators complete changeovers quickly and reduces setup errors.
The system then works with the corresponding lamp configuration and operating controls. This makes transitions between curing technologies more convenient for press operators.
Printers can use LED UV for heat-sensitive materials and LED-compatible inks. Mercury UV remains available for conventional UV inks, coatings, varnishes, and adhesives.
This dual-technology approach helps printers handle changing customer orders without depending on one curing method.
LED UV: Efficient and Stable
IUV LED UV curing systems deliver focused UV energy with instant switching and adjustable output.
The lamps start immediately when production begins. They can also stop during press downtime without requiring a long warm-up or cool-down cycle.
IUV’s patented automatic web-width adjustment matches the active curing area to the printed web.
When a narrow material is running, the system reduces UV output outside the required curing width. This can cut unnecessary energy consumption by more than 75%.
The feature is especially valuable for narrow web presses processing labels of different widths. Operators can change jobs without using full-width output for every application.
Constant-voltage and constant-current control help maintain stable electrical performance. This technology also helps extend LED service life beyond 30,000 hours.
Water cooling controls the operating temperature of the LED modules during continuous production. Stable cooling supports dependable output and consistent curing performance.
Adjustable UV energy gives operators greater control over different press speeds, inks, coatings, and substrates.
IUV LED UV systems are suitable for label printing, flexographic printing, offset printing, and narrow web applications.
They can process paper, synthetic stock, PE, PP, PET, BOPP, and other heat-sensitive materials.
The compact lamp design supports installation on new presses and existing production equipment. Multiple lamp modules can also serve wider webs or multi-station presses.
Mercury UV: Continuously Improved
IUV mercury UV curing systems support conventional UV inks, coatings, varnishes, and adhesives.
Mercury UV provides a broad emission spectrum for many established printing materials. It remains an important curing choice for label and packaging producers.
IUV continues to improve mercury UV systems through better cooling, optical design, controls, and maintenance access.
Optimized airflow improves lamp cooling and supports dependable operation during long production runs.
Electronic shutter control manages UV exposure during press stops and production changes. The shutter protects the substrate when the web is not moving.
High-reflectivity, mirror-finished aluminum reflectors direct more UV energy toward the printed surface. This design helps improve UV utilization within the curing area.
Protective flat glass shields internal components from ink mist, dust, and production contamination. It also simplifies inspection and routine cleaning.
IUV mercury UV systems can include lamp housings, reflectors, shutters, power supplies, cooling components, and press controls.
Systems are available for new presses, replacement projects, and customized equipment integration.
Printers can select a configuration based on curing width, line speed, UV ink type, available space, and press structure.
Compact and Modular Power Supply
IUV’s proprietary Modular Power Supply combines a compact footprint with stackable power modules.
The modular structure reduces complex wiring and creates a cleaner electrical layout. This makes installation and troubleshooting easier.
Individual power modules can be inspected or replaced without rebuilding the complete power system.
Additional modules can be added when a project requires more curing stations or greater system capacity.
This scalable design supports single-station and multi-station UV curing systems. It is suitable for both new equipment and press retrofit projects.
The compact structure also helps equipment manufacturers use cabinet space more efficiently.
IUV coordinates the power supply with the lamp, cooling unit, and control system. This creates a complete UV curing package for press integration.
Designed for Label and Narrow Web Presses
IUV UV curing systems are designed for the practical requirements of label and narrow web printing.
Compact LED lamp modules fit into restricted spaces between printing stations. Mercury UV lamp housings can also be configured around available press space.
Systems can support interstation curing, final curing, varnishing, coating, and other inline processes.
IUV solutions are suitable for pressure-sensitive labels, shrink sleeves, flexible packaging, specialty labels, and coated materials.
The required curing system can be matched to the printing width, press speed, ink coverage, substrate, and finishing process.
Whether the press uses flexographic, offset, screen, or combined printing, IUV can develop an application-specific UV configuration.
Flexible Solutions for New Presses and Retrofits
IUV supplies UV curing systems for new printing machines and existing press upgrades.
For new equipment, IUV can work with the press manufacturer during the design and integration stages.
For retrofit projects, the IUV team can review the current mounting space, electrical system, cooling connections, and press controls.
Customers can replace aging UV equipment, add another curing station, or upgrade from a single technology to an interchangeable system.
A complete retrofit package can include UV lamps, power modules, cooling equipment, control panels, cables, and mounting components.
This coordinated approach helps reduce integration complexity and supports a smoother installation process.
Proven OEM Experience
IUV works with leading printing press manufacturers worldwide. Each UV curing system is engineered around the press layout and production requirements.
IUV provides customized solutions for curing width, press speed, UV output, cooling, control, and installation space.
OEM projects can include LED UV systems, mercury UV systems, or interchangeable LED and mercury configurations.
IUV can also customize lamp dimensions, mounting structures, cable arrangements, cooling connections, and control interfaces.
This experience allows IUV to support printing equipment manufacturers, converters, system integrators, and end users.
From a single curing station to a complete multi-station system, IUV provides coordinated products for each project.
