Replacement UV curing lamp FAQ
A: Yes. Every Benford replacement lamp is precision-engineered in the UK to match or exceed original OEM electrical parameters, physical arc lengths, and spectral output for all major press manufacturers (including Heidelberg, KBA, Komori, RMGT, and Nilpeter).
A: All Benford quartz arc lamps come with a 1,000-hour operational guarantee, engineered to maintain greater than 80% of their initial peak UV intensity throughout their lifespan.
A: Yes. Depending on your ink and coating requirements, lamps can be manufactured using standard Mercury (Hg) for clear coats, Iron-Doped (Fe) for dense inks and heavy packaging board, or Gallium-Doped (Ga) for opaque white inks.
A: All lamps are hand-crafted and tested in the UK by Benford UV Ltd (trading as Benford UV Lamps), utilising original technical archives, tooling, and master quartz lathe craftsmanship.
