With the development of UV curing technology, it has been used in many industries UV glue, among which the medical industry is one of them. Especially in the bonding and sealing of some medical devices and consumables, such as: UV curing of cardiac stent sleeves, manufacturing and assembly of blood oxygenation, assembly of needle tube sleeves, assembly of conveyor sleeves and connectors, UV light-curing bonding of insulin pens, UV bonding and curing of endoscopes, etc., medical UV glue has basically replaced traditional adhesives.

Medical devices generally use inert substrates that have little impact on human health. The adhesive is required to be strong and reliable and not affect the biocompatibility and aesthetic appearance of the medical device. Medical A large part of the reason why UV glue can quickly replace traditional adhesives is the safety of UV glue. UV glue curing works by absorbing ultraviolet light in a specified band and generating a cross-linking reaction to solidify the glue. As a one-component adhesive, UV glue has no solvent volatilization and no residue during the curing process. It is also compatible with sterilization methods such as gamma, ethylene oxide and electron beam.

Part of the reason is because UV glue cures quickly. After applying the UV glue, use a UVLED curing lamp to irradiate it. It can be completely cured within a few seconds to tens of seconds, which greatly improves production efficiency.

Different medical devices are suitable for different UVLED curing equipment, such as needle tube production, can use a small range of UVLED point light sources, while larger quantities or oxygen masks with larger products require the use of UVLED surface light sources or automated UVLED curing equipment. Shenzhen Yongcheng Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. has been working on UVLED curing equipment for many years. There are more than a thousand different types of curing equipment, which can be adapted to different production lines to meet production needs.
