Phoseon (booth 514) will showcase the latest UV LED curing solutions for graphic and industrial applications at the upcoming RadTech UV+EB Technology Expo and Conference 2018 in Chicago.
Mike Higgins, director of sales – Americas, will present, “Using UV-A to your Advantage: Black & White Edition” during the Overcoming Challenges session (10:15 a.m.-12:15 p.m.) on Monday, May 7, 2018. Later that morning, Higgins will also discuss new LED-powered new products by Phoseon at the New Product Debut I session.

On Tuesday, May 8, 2018, Jennifer Heathcote, global director of business development – Curing, will discuss, “UV LED Flexographic Printing” during the Printing + Packaging I session (8:00-10:00 a.m.). She will be presenting, “Characterizing UV LED Curing Systems” during the UV LED II session (3:30-5:30 p.m.), and she will be moderating the “Future of UV LED Chemistry” panel on Monday, May 7 from 1:15 to 2:00 p.m. in the Exhibit Theater.

“UV LED flexography excels in areas that are in high demand today and require superior process control to stay ahead of the competition, from printing on prime PS labels to shrink film to low migration flexible packaging,” Heathcote said. “UV LED is now the preferred and superior technology for flexo printing, but not all UV LED systems are the same. It’s critical that OEMs and converters select the right UV LED system for their application.”

On the last day of the conference, Ruben Rivera, regional sales manager, will present “Evolution of UV from Lamps to LED’s” at the Equipment session (8:00-10:00 a.m., Track B) and Higgins will be part of a panel discussion on “UV LED Mythbusters” in the Exhibit Theater (10:15-11:00 a.m.).

RadTech UV&EB Technology Expo & Conference 2018 will take place May 7-9 at the Hyatt Regency, O’Hare in Rosemont, Ill. The event is dedicated to the educational, technical and scientific advancement of ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) technologies.
