Illuminate Problems Early: Precision UV LED Monitoring with Dosimeters
Measure quickly and check results often with dosimeters.
Dosimeters provide real-time data on UV LED exposure, allowing manufacturers to identify potential issues before they escalate. By implementing these devices, it becomes easier to ensure that manufacturing processes align with the required specifications. This proactive approach helps maintain quality control and reduces the risk of product recalls, compliance fines, and damage to brand reputation.
We offer dosimeters with patented photochromic ink that changes color based on exposure to ultraviolet energy. Issues can arise when energy does not reach the substrate, which is often caused by ink or coating blocking UV energy from exiting the LED curing system.
Continuous monitoring is a smart strategy to avoid unforeseen expenses from non-compliant products.
