Light Therapy Lamps Provide Healing Benefit

September 26, 2019 by John Andros in light bulb manufacturers

Light therapy, also called phototherapy, provides proven healing benefits to many different medical conditions. Phototherapy is often used to treat various medical conditions such as skin and dermatitis conditions, mood disorders and more. UV light therapy lamps are often prescribed to treat medical conditions such as:

  • Acne – phototherapy is proven to improve symptoms and alleviate acne in many patients

  • Eczema – light therapy is prescribed to reduce eczema symptoms and prevent flare-ups

  • Psoriasis – phototherapy reduces red, patchy and scaly skin in patients suffering with psoriasis with UVA and UVB light therapy solutions

  • Vitiligo – UV light is proven to improve symptoms of vitiligo in many patients

  • Jaundice – UV light is used to help the liver improve the production of bilirubin in the body, which is why these therapy lamps are sometimes referred to as ‘bili-lights’

  • Depression – many people suffering from seasonal affective disorder (SAD) benefit from phototherapy lamps to easy symptoms of depression

  • Sleep disorders – sleep disorders can be treated with special lights programmed to mimic the sun and help people to wake and sleep with a normal rhythm 

  • Diabetes – light therapy also helps people suffering from diabetes with wound healing and cell function.

Working with a reputable phototherapy lamp manufacturer will ensure that your lamps meet the specified requirements for treating each condition. LightSources is regarded as an authority on fluorescent and UV lamp design, engineering and manufacturing.  We offer proven phototherapy lamp solutions from skilled lighting engineers with in-depth expertise of ultraviolet radiation.

Benefits of UV Curing Polymers

September 17, 2019 by John Andros in light bulb manufacturers

There are a few different methods used for drying polymers in many commercial and industrial applications. Air drying, applying quick drying chemicals and ultraviolet (UV) light are common methods used to dry polymers.  UV curing is becoming more popular as an effective method of curing polymers which provides many benefits. 

UV curing lamps are designed to emit the proper wavelength of UV radiation which causes an instant photochemical reaction to certain polymers. UV light can instantly cure glues, epoxies, polyurethane, lacquers and many polymers. UV curing is  quick and effective providing many cost-saving benefits and advantages over other methods. 

UV Curing Provides Advantages over Other Methods

Instant curing - UV curing is instant, which improves cycle times and alleviates bottlenecks in material flow. Secondary operations and packaging are often a bottleneck area for product movement.  With instant UV curing, products can be cured while moving from one station to another for many cost-saving efficiencies.

Consistent process – UV curing dries polymers instantly for a consistent and reliable process. Unlike air drying, there are no irregularities due to evaporation and no chance of dust particles contaminating surfaces while drying. UV lamps improve product quality for less scrapped and returned product. 

No chemical byproducts - unlike application of chemical drying agents, UV curing does not require the use of toxic chemicals providing a safe work environment.

UV curing lamps are in high demand to improve many commercial and industrial processes. Be sure to work with a reputable UV lamp manufacturer to obtain quality lamps for the best return on your investment.
