UV Flashlamps

Xenon Corporation is the world's leader in the design and manufacturing of high intensity flashlamps for industrial, medical and research applications. Much of Xenon's experience originates from the design of complete systems for pulsed light curing and sanitization.

Matching optical footprint

Many applications require lamp designs that are matched to the target “footprint”. Traditionally, mercury UV lamps have been limited to short arc or linear lamp designs. There are no such limits on pulsed UV lamps. The ability to shape the lamp to the application, providing better uniformity and enhanced matching of the UV light with the substrate, is a benefit for demanding applications.

Illustrating the flexibility inherent in being able to choose the shape of a lamp, is Xenon’s unique spiral lamp design, specifically developed for Optical Disc manufacturing. The spiral lamp design provides better uniformity and enhanced matching of the UV light across the substrate. Spiral shaped pulsed UV lamps meet the need for fast, low heat adhesive bonding of two polycarbonate discs as well as complete curing of thick top-layer coatings used with new formats such as Blu-ray Disc™.
