Phoseon Technology teams with Spectra to exploit solid-state UV curing in the UV ink-jet market

Phoseon Technology, Beaverton, Ore., has entered into a technology evaluation and development agreement with Spectra to exploit solid-state UV-light sources for the industrial printing market. Based in Lebanon, N.H., Spectra is a leading developer and manufacturer of drop-on-demand (DOD) piezoelectric (PZT) ink-jet heads for the printing of inks and deposition of fluids and materials, with a dominant position in the UV ink-jet market. The agreement allows both parties to explore the possibility of providing Phoseon's patented solid- state UV-light-source technology to the UV ink-jet market for curing in many potential forms.
