The benefits UV curing provides to the automotive industry are impressive. It speeds processing time, requires less energy, and improves product performance.
Nordson UV curing systems add value to several coating and adhesive applications for a wide range of automotive component and assembly operations.
For automotive lighting applications, UV curing provides the added value of reliable, instant cure for all types of dispensed materials, including hot melt, PUR and cold glue, one-component and two-component silicone, and form-in-place gasketing.
Headlamp systems are more scratch and chip resistant when a UV-curable hard coat is applied and cured on polycarbonate plastic lenses.
Reflector housings for lights benefit from UV-curable primers that improve adhesion for the reflective surface operation. Then, application of a durable, UV-curable clearcoat keeps reflectors in pristine condition for significantly improved product performance.
Interior plastic and vinyl parts are more durable and resistant to damage and deterioration when waterborne UV-curable coatings are applied.
Body side moldings are more resilient to yellowing, fading and staining when UV-cured clear coats are used.
Many other automotive operations for body panels, tail lens, aluminum wheels and under hood components, also use UV curing to improve efficiencies and product performance.
