The UV curing industry has been thrown into uncertainty with the ongoing confusion and lack of public statements surrounding UV Process Supply, a company once renowned for its extensive catalog of UV components and accessories. Customers report unreturned calls, conflicting responses regarding their status, and other rumors. With little clarity on what’s happening behind the scenes, businesses relying on these components are left scrambling to find alternative sources. If you’re among those affected, Hill Technical Sales is here to offer a solution.
We specialize in high-quality, reliable UV components, including lamps, reflectors, power supplies, and irradiator assemblies. Whether you’re maintaining existing equipment or developing new UV curing systems, Hill Technical Sales provides the products and expertise you need to keep your operations running smoothly.
Why Choose Hill Technical Sales?
At Hill Technical Sales, we pride ourselves on being a trusted partner for companies in need of UV curing components. We’ve built a reputation for quality, reliability, and customer-focused service. With the challenges facing the market, it’s more important than ever to have a dependable supplier.
Here’s what we offer:
- UV Reflectors: Our highly polished aluminum extrusions are engineered to deliver exceptional UV energy transfer
- UV Lamps: We provide an extensive range of mercury vapor and metal halide lamps, including extended-life options that last 2–3 times longer than standard lamps.
- Accessories: From irradiator assemblies to power supplies, we carry a wide range of UV curing accessories.
- Expertise: With years of experience, we understand the nuances of UV curing systems and can guide you toward the best solutions.
UV Reflector Extrusions: Cost-Effective and Durable
Our aluminum UV reflector extrusions are a standout solution for engineers designing their own UV curing systems. Manufactured from specially processed 6061-grade aluminum, these reflectors feature a highly polished surface, delivering up to 90% UV reflectance. Unlike other materials that tarnish or corrode over time, our extrusions resist wear, ensuring consistent performance.
Key benefits of our UV reflectors:
- Efficient Design: Time-tested profiles focus UV light from medium-pressure mercury and metal additive lamps directly onto the curing substrate.
- Heat Dissipation: The aluminum construction efficiently absorbs heat and dissipates it through the fin structure.
- Versatility: Designed for lamps with power ratings between 100 and 600 watts per inch.
- Low Maintenance: In most environments, there’s no need for expensive UV reflector liners. For messy applications, liners are optional but not mandatory, making our extrusions a cost-effective choice.
For higher-power applications, we recommend enclosing the reflector in a housing with forced air cooling. This can be configured as an end-cooled or center-cooled assembly, ensuring optimal performance and extended durability.
Comprehensive Selection of UV Lamps
We also provide a full range of medium-pressure mercury vapor and metal halide lamps, all designed to meet the demands of modern UV curing systems. Crafted from high-purity amorphous silica with tungsten electrodes, these lamps are engineered for maximum reliability and performance.
Our UV lamps offer:
- Versatility: Arc lengths from 1 inch to 180 inches and power levels ranging from 200 to 1,000 watts per inch.
- Extended Life: Versions that last 2–3 times longer than standard lamps, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
- Custom Options: We provide xenon arc lamps, short arc lamps, and various spectra tailored to specific curing needs.
For advanced curing applications, our metal halide lamps are a perfect choice. These lamps incorporate metal halogens to produce specific UV wavelengths, allowing you to match the sensitivity of your photopolymer precisely.
Specialized Metal Halide Lamps
Metal halide lamps are mercury vapor lamps enhanced with metal halogens to create specific UV outputs. These lamps are essential for applications requiring precise wavelength control, such as photo-polymerization processes.
We offer two main types:
- Iron-Cobalt Spectrum: Broad spectral output, ideal for applications needing UV radiation in the 380–390 nm range.
- Gallium-Indium Spectrum: Enhanced output in the 403–420 nm range, suitable for photopolymers requiring higher UV wavelengths.
Our lamps are designed to maintain consistent performance under varying temperatures and voltages, extending their lifespan and ensuring reliable operation.
Accessories and Irradiator Assemblies
In addition to lamps and reflectors, we supply complete irradiator assemblies for fully configured UV curing systems. These assemblies include everything you need to upgrade or maintain your equipment, from power supplies to cooling systems.
