Metal Halide Lamps: Tailored UV Solutions for Industrial Excellence
Introduction
In the ever-evolving industrial landscape, UV technology has become a cornerstone for processes ranging from high-speed printing to semiconductor manufacturing. At Fiver Electronic Technology, we specialize in crafting advanced metal halide lamps that combine unmatched spectral control, durability, and adaptability. Whether you're curing coatings, exposing circuit boards, or sterilizing medical devices, our customizable UV solutions are engineered to elevate your productivity and quality.
What Are Metal Halide Lamps?
Metal halide lamps are high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps that generate ultraviolet (UV) and visible light by ionizing a mixture of metal halides (e.g., gallium, iron, indium) and mercury vapor. Unlike conventional UV lamps, they offer:
Broad-spectrum output (250–600 nm) for multi-wavelength applications
High irradiance (up to 30 W/cm²) for rapid curing and exposure
Customizable spectral peaks to match specific photoinitiators
Why Choose Fiver's Metal Halide Lamps?
1.Precision Spectral Engineering
Our lamps are tailored to your needs by adjusting halide formulations (e.g., GaI₃, FeI₃, InI₃) to optimize key wavelengths:
365 nm: Ideal for i-line photolithography and general UV curing
420 nm: Perfect for ITX-based solder masks and coatings
254 nm: Enhanced UVC for sterilization
2.Industry-Specific Solutions
