METHOD FOR OPTIMIZATION OF RADIANT CURING OF SURFACE COATINGS ON THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS

The invention is a process for radiant curing of a coating on a three-dimensional object. The process includes (a) providing a model of a radiant output of at least two lamps to be used to provide the radiant curing of the coating; (b) providing a model of at least one characteristic of a response o...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention is a process for radiant curing of a coating on a three-dimensional object. The process includes (a) providing a model of a radiant output of at least two lamps to be used to provide the radiant curing of the coating; (b) providing a model of at least one characteristic of a response of the coating to radiant curing; (c) selecting radiant output of the lamps based upon the model of the radiant output; and (d) defining at least a spatial position of the lamps during curing of the coating; (e) defining at least a spatial position of the three-dimensional object during curing of the coating; (f) simulating a radiant output of the at least two lamps based upon the defined spatial position of the lamps; (g) in response to the simulated radiant output and the defined spatial position of the three-dimensional object during curing of the coating, determining if a predicted radiant output of the at least two lamps on the three-dimensional object will acceptably cure the three-dimensional object; and (h) if the radiant output is acceptable, storing a number of the lamps, position of the lamps used in the model of the radiant output, the selected radiant output, and the defined position of the three-dimensional object.
