Focus On

So far, excimer matting technology has been used on flat panels because removing oxygen from 3D objects, especially the edges of a raised panel or possible milled or bas-relief surfaces has never been accomplished satisfactorily. Exydry-Z includes patent-pending technologies to effectively wash away all the oxygen from the X, Y and Z axes of a raised panel, enabling excimer matting on all surfaces.

Description

Exydry-Z is an excimer oven capable of handling more than just a flat panel. Obtaining a soft-touch, deep matt finish with long-term scratch and abrasion resistance on raised panels in general is now possible thanks to 3 patent pending technologies.

Characteristics

  • Excimer matting technology extended to all 3 axes 
  • High-performance surface finish for long-term scratch and abrasion resistance
  • Soft-touch, fingerprint-proof effect even on raised panels
  • Deep matt finish reaching below-5 gloss on a 0 – 100 scale
  • Minimal nitrogen consumption (65% less than average) reduces costs

Details

01 Deep matt finish

The lacquer is cured in such a way as to produce an extremely matt finish as low as 5 gloss on a scale going from 0 to 100. Plus, it achieves that sought-after, lasting fingerprint-proof effect.

02 Soft-touch effect

Excimer matting technology accomplishes a short-wave UV polymerisation process in an oxygen-free atmosphere delivers high-performance surfaces with a soft-touch effect.

03 X, y and z axis

Conceived specially for raised panels, this innovative system handles, for example, cabinet doors sprayed using robot and/or oscillating machines. The patent pending design enables a continuous flow of raised panels through the oven, taking care of full oxygen removal, a condition which is essential for excimer technology, without stopping the production flow, and consequently the production plant.

04 Sustainable value

The nitrogen used to wash away all the oxygen around a raised panel, enabling matting on all surfaces, is substantially lower than conventional excimer ovens.
