Hamamatsu now offers a new ultraviolet (UV) light source with internal PC interface that allows you to easily program light irradiation intensity and irradiation time settings. This is designed to shorten the program setting task and eliminate entry errors. This light source will be available in 2 models. One is the "L9566" LIGHTING CURE LC8 series spot light source (light guide connection port on rear panel) and the other is the "L9588" (light guide connection port on front panel). These will go on sale on June 20. This LIGHTING CURE spot light source is an ultraviolet light source for UV curing or bonding in which tiny lenses mainly used in the DVD pickups are fixed. This light source has all the great features of the previous model including a long service life and easy operation yet is newly equipped with a RS-232C interface for PCs. This interface lets the user enter all kinds of program data from a PC such as light irradiation intensity and irradiation time, etc. This will cut down the time needed to make program settings during production line changeover and eliminate entry errors. This light source also contains an internal light intensity monitor with light feedback to maintain the light at a constant intensity. This means the user no longer has to purchase a dedicated light guide. Another bonus is that high UV irradiation intensity of 4,000 mW per square centimeter can be obtained at the output end of the light guide, by using a low light loss optical system.
