UV-LED Single-Side Exposure Machine

A UV-LED single-side exposure machine using 365–420nm parallel cold light — instant-on, energy saving, and built to outlast mercury-lamp units.

Single-Side Exposure

Cold LED light — instant-on, no cooling water

The GE-LED1200 swaps the mercury lamp for a 365–420nm UV-LED parallel cold-light source. It turns on instantly with no warm-up, draws about a kilowatt, needs no cooling water, and the LED head lasts 20,000+ hours — cutting roughly 80% of the energy a conventional exposure unit burns. Parallel light keeps the beam straight through the film, so on a 1300×1600 mm vacuum bed the artwork transfers crisply for screen stencils, dry film and single-sided boards.

Why this machine

Why UV-LED over a mercury lamp

Instant-on

No warm-up, expose on demand.

~80% energy saving

About 1KW vs multi-KW lamps.

20,000h LED life

Few consumables, low upkeep.

No cooling water

Air-cooled, simpler install.

Parallel cold light

Straight beam, sharp transfer.

Stable dose

No lamp drift over a shift.

FAQ

UV-LED Single-Side Exposure Machine — common questions

Around 80%. A mercury single-side unit can draw 8–12KW; the GE-LED1200 runs near 1KW and only while exposing, since it is instant-on with no idle warm-up.

No. The cold-light head is air-cooled — no cooling water, no chiller plumbing, which also removes a common maintenance headache.

20,000+ hours of useful life with little output drop, versus a mercury lamp that needs replacing after roughly 1,000–1,500 hours and drifts as it ages.

This model exposes one side at a time. For registered two-side work see the UV/LED double-side models or the 4-CCD / 8-CCD automatic machines.
