Three Straight Must See 'Ems for AMS

Air Motion Systems (AMS) has received its third consecutive Must See 'Ems award for LED energy curing solutions. AMS received the award in the Pressroom: Analog Presses category.

This highly coveted award is voted upon by industry leading experts and represents the most forward-thinking technologies for the graphic arts industry.

The XP9, the latest AMS LED development, delivers increased power-curing intensity and provides a greater assurance of cure, even with the most difficult inks, varnishes, and adhesives on virtually any substrate material including coated and uncoated paper, board, plastics, metalized stock, lenticular, and synthetics at speeds as great as 30,000 sheets per hour. The XP9 is constructed entirely from solid-state LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) and is RoHS compliant.

Both new and retrofitted presses equipped with the AMS LED system produce sheets that are instantly dry, provide quicker turns and reduce inventory hold times. Additionally, colors are more vibrant on both coated and uncoated stock. Because sheets are instantly dry, the AMS LED system eliminates the need for spray power as well as ozone and mercury from the pressroom. LEDs are rated for 20,000 hours of operation – ending the need to continually replace costly mercury bulbs.
