Automotive
With over 30 years of expertise in the automotive paint drying industry, Victory Lighting is a trusted partner for manufacturers, smart repair companies, and businesses of all sizes. Infrared (IR) technology is an excellent solution for drying paints and lacquers applied to vehicles, offering speed, efficiency, and flexibility.
Paint Drying
We provide a range of products to meet varying needs, including fully installed units, large mobile systems, and small handheld devices for localised drying tasks. Additionally, our advanced UV LED systems can cure paints in remarkably short timeframes, setting a new standard in efficiency.
Spray Booths
Infrared technology is a highly effective and efficient method for curing paints and lacquers, making it an ideal choice for spray booth integration. Victory Lighting has extensive experience designing and delivering tailored IR solutions, whether for the aerospace, automotive, or other industries. IR systems are a cost-effective alternative to oil and gas solutions, significantly reducing curing times while enhancing operational efficiency. We can create bespoke infrared-integrated spray booths or retrofit existing setups to improve performance and cost-effectiveness.
Re-Activating Adhesives on Glass
The reactivation or drying of adhesives is critical for many industries, particularly the glass industry. Infrared heat is the most efficient method for reactivating adhesives, delivering rapid and consistent results. IR technology offers significant production advantages by speeding up the process while maintaining the highest quality standards. Victory Lighting works closely with clients to conduct tests and trials, ensuring a tailored solution that meets their unique production needs.
Automotive In-Line Processing Using IR Heating
An example from the construction of a new process line for an automotive factory. This has helped reduce the cost and energy consumption of the process while at the same time reduced the line length by over 60m. A process that used to take 20 minutes to complete is now performed in 3 minutes (only the heating stage is shown here on the demonstration unit).
Alloys and Car Wheels
Car wheels and alloys require precise coating and lacquering processes. Infrared heat is an excellent option for drying lacquers, drastically reducing the drying time up to 80% compared to natural air drying when installed correctly. Victory Lighting offers both standard standalone IR units and bespoke, integrated systems to fit seamlessly into your existing production lines.
Lacquer Drying
Infrared technology offers substantial benefits over traditional lacquer drying methods. For water-based lacquers, drying naturally or using hot air systems can be time-intensive, whereas short-wave infrared significantly accelerates the process. Our IR solutions not only reduce drying times but also ensure consistent heat output, resulting in superior finishes. Victory Lighting provides mobile, handheld, and integrated IR units for standalone or production-line applications, including incorporation into existing spray booths.
Airbag Manufacturing
In airbag production, quality and precision are paramount. Victory Lighting collaborates with manufacturers to improve production processes using Infrared heat, ensuring consistent results. Nylon airbag materials require pre-heating for silicone coating applications, which ensures the bag unfolds correctly in the event of a crash. Infrared technology delivers the fastest and most consistent heat output, outperforming alternative methods and ensuring safety-critical performance.
