Bluewave flood-curing system
The newest addition to Dymax’s light-curing systems is the BlueWave FX-1250 LED flood-curing system.
Using Dymax LED emitters available in 365nm, 385nm, and 405nm wavelengths, the unit generates more than 2W/cm2 of intensity, providing uniformity in a 5" x 5" (127mm x 127mm) curing area. Along with true, high irradiance LED light, the BlueWave FX-1250 has an enhanced controller with an easy-to-use interface. A high-contrast 7" display screen is easy to read and populated with intuitive graphics, menus, and information. The controller can be activated and remotely monitored by PLC and store up to 16 programs and parameters for repeatable processes. It can continuously monitor the health of the emitters and controller, and report faults directly to the controller display.
LED-based curing technology offers no warm-up period, instant on/off, cooler curing, and other environmentally friendly advantages, such as lower costs and long life.

CNC VMC jig mill
The PJ812 CNC vertical machining center, where the J represents jig, offers travels of 1,200mm x 800mm, x 500mm (X, Y, Z). Maximum work size is 1,200mm x 800mm, the table load accommodates 1,500kg, and the VMC provides positioning accuracy and repeatability of ±1µm.
Mechanical design features that maximize machine rigidity and accuracy include hardened and ground tool steel box slideways as well as contact elements that enhance acceleration, reduce stick-slip, and allow for feed accuracy of 0.1µm. Another proprietary engineering detail improves the static rigidity of the Z-axis to more than 6x that of conventional Z-axis arrangements.
The machine features a full enclosure and various coolant system options.

Microdrill families for precision machining
Two microdrill families specifically designed for precision machining and small part manufacturing are CoroDrill 462 with -XM geometry and CoroDrill 862 with -GM geometry.
CoroDrill 462 and 862 drill hole depths of up to nine times diameter (xD) when using external coolant, and a through-coolant option is available for drilling diameters of 1mm and above, and hole depths of up to 16xD. CoroDrill 462 offers hole making up to 3mm. For drilling both blind and through holes, the versatile drill can machine ISO P, M, K, N, S, O, and H with a drill depth of 6xD. CoroDrill 862 is for making holes from 1mm to 3mm in diameter in all materials, when used with internal coolant. In addition to conventional drilling, CoroDrill 862 supports cross holes, stack drilling, and drilling of convex and concave surfaces.
CoroDrill 462 and 862 are available as off-the-shelf, customizable solid carbide tools and can be configured based on diameters, usable length, step-diameter length, and shank diameter. Customers can purchase the CoroDrill 862 with a polycrystalline diamond (PCD) vein cutting edge.
