PLUVEX

PLUVEX is an UV ultraviolet exposure unit. It is a high-quality steel-cased pressure contact UV exposure unit featuring UV tubes in the lid to aid artwork registration. The UV Fluorescent tubes are in the lid which means the artwork can be registered aligned and clamped in position on the pressure pad before the exposure lid is lowered. To perform an exposure, the artwork and UV-sensitive material being exposed is placed on the precision exposure foam pressure pad. The separate hinged frame containing 4mm glass is then lowered onto this foam pad. It hinges from the rear of the unit and induces a progressive contact line across the face of the foam pad aiding the expulsion of air between the artwork and UV sensitive material. The frame is then secured with the two front mounting catches to achieve the necessary pressure for the required artwork contact.
