We will be exhibiting at the "17th Functional Materials Week, 10th Adhesion and Joining" to be held at Makuhari Messe in September. This exhibition will gather a wide range of professionals interested in functional film molding processing technologies, materials, surface treatment, and evaluation. We will primarily showcase our UV irradiators. This will be particularly beneficial for engineers, researchers, and purchasing personnel involved in functional films and surface treatments from sectors such as film manufacturing, electronics, automotive, batteries, construction and building materials, and food and beverages. Please feel free to use this opportunity for business discussions and technical consultations. 【Exhibition Details】 At our booth, we will display a wide range of ultraviolet (UV) lighting devices using LED and excimer light sources. We will introduce irradiators tailored to various purposes and conditions, including surface treatment of films, utilization of UV in manufacturing processes, and various evaluation applications. Additionally, we will conduct demonstrations using actual equipment, allowing you to see the real irradiation effects while we propose UV irradiators suitable for your applications. We sincerely look forward to your visit. If you plan to attend or have any inquiries in advance, please feel free to contact us via the inquiry form or reach out to our sales representative.
