For the ultimate in reproduction definition, a vacuum unit has to be the choice. Unlike the pressure pad units the AZ series use a vacuum to ensure the artwork and material to be exposed are held in perfect contact. When fine tracks are required on a PCB or detailed definition on a graphic reproduction, an AZ vacuum UV Exposure unit should be chosen. Double or single sided can be carried out by switching mode on the unit.
All the AZ units now feature the latest rubber frame and glass plate vacuum system for the ultimate exposure resolution. An adjustable selectable 0-600 seconds or 0-100 mins timer is fitted to give the operator greater flexibility.
A vacuum gauge is also fitted in the machine enabling the operator to check the level of vacuum before activating the UV tubes. A vacuum down to 0.2 bar can be created. All units come complete with an IEC socket and moulded 13 amp plug. The special fluorescent lamps emit a wavelength of 350-400nm (UV A)
