Phoseon Technology Expands Water-Cooled FireLine(TM) UV LED Product Line

Heidelberg-Linoprint First Customer to Utilize New Products


HILLSBORO, OR--(Marketwire - May 17, 2011) - Phoseon Technology extends its leadership position by expanding the FireLine™ product family with two offerings, a 150x20mm and a 300x20mm solution. The water-cooled RX FireLine family targets web-based segments where high-power, scalable solutions enable customers to rapidly introduce their products to the market.

Utilizing Phoseon's patented SLM™ technology, the latest FireLine family provides customers with:

  • Simple control of the UV LED light source to rapidly integrate into their machines
  • Flexible integration due to the de-coupling of light source from power supply, enabling customers to source their own power supply that better matches their system needs
  • Increased reliability through advanced diagnostics and monitoring
  • Scalable solutions up to 2 meters in length

"Heidelberg-Linoprint is going to introduce at Interpack the new DriveLine F digital inkjet printer built for easy integration into pharmaceutical packaging lines and maximum flexibility," states Sven Michael, Head of Consumables of Heidelberg-Linoprint. "Utilizing UV LED curing technology from Phoseon allows Heidelberg-Linoprint to deliver a secure, highly reliable, and optimized solution for our customers."

While bringing the three-tiered benefits of UV LED curing (high-quality, environmentally friendly, and lower total cost of ownership), Phoseon's products add additional capability with high performance, maximum UV energy, and outstanding reliability for customers' tough curing environments.

"The RX FireLine 150 and 300 further extend Phoseon's leadership in high-powered water-cooled products," commented Bill Cortelyou, CEO and President of Phoseon Technology. "In fact, we have already proven FireLine scalability by shipping systems at 1.3m (4.2 feet) to end users. Phoseon products allow customers to maximize UV LED benefits by providing sophisticated yet simple reliability features that maximize machine uptime."

With immediate availability in volume quantities, the FireLine 150x20 and 300x20 expand the water-cooled FireLine product family.

Phoseon's product line can be seen at the FESPA Digital show May 24-26, 2011 in Hamburg, Germany.

The new DriveLine F incorporating Phoseon technology can be seen at the Interpack trade show May 12-18, 2011 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
