Abstract
A microprocessor-controlled mobile machine for curing a floor coating includes a source of radiant energy in the form of ultraviolet (UV) light which is mounted to the machine. The machine may be operated in a Traverse mode under operator control of speed for moving to an application site. A Standby mode permits the UV applicator to operate at a quiescent state to reduce warm-up time while permitting the machine to be maneuvered by the operator. A Cure mode (of which there may be a plurality) operates the machine at predetermined, processor-controlled speed and the UV applicator at a predetermined power level.
