SMARTcure from IST Metz: UV drying process with AI

Anzeige Drying | Created by BA

SMARTcure technology combines UV curing with artificial intelligence. It detects potential energy savings, optimizes the UV curing process in real time and extends the service life of LED systems.

With SMARTcure, IST Metz supplies a system that offers assistance functions thanks to intelligent data transfer and provides operating data for maintenance. For example, the dryer output can be reduced. Relevant parameters - such as substrate, color and coating information - can be automatically recorded via an interface and stored in the cloud.

AI-supported calculation

The system analyzes all parameters and calculates the optimum dryer output per unit depending on the ink location and ink and coating type. It determines the maximum production speed based on the required dose and adjusts the LED zone control to the print format.

Continuous improvements possible

The user can evaluate the drying quality via an integrated feedback option. Feedback and adjustments are processed in the cloud to continuously optimize the process. In addition, measuring systems such as the UV analyzer, measurement of the double bond conversion, solvent resistance or a thumb test can be integrated.
