Process Solution for UV Curing of Coatings on Automotive Plastic Parts

Curing of UV coatings on complex three-dimensional parts in an automotive production environment is a significant challenge. Factors such as productivity, part design, part size, and physical process constraints, and are a sampling of constraints that must be taken into consideration for UV process design and implementation. This paper will discuss various general solutions and provide examples of solutions chosen for production and the reasons for the specific choice.
