SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A CURING PROCESS
A curing system is included. The curing system includes a display, a first radiation emitter lamp, and a control system. The control system is operatively coupled the first radiation emitter lamp. The control system includes a processor configured to present, on the display, a first bake cycle, the bake cycle comprising a curve having at least two points. The processor is further configured to receive user input to adjust the at least two points by moving the points within a graph. The processor is additionally configured to emit radiation via the first radiation emitter lamp by following the bake cycle.
1 . A tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
present, on a display including in a curing system, a first bake cycle, the bake cycle comprising a curve having at least two points, wherein the computer-readable medium is configured to present the bake cycle based on a surface material selection, wherein the surface material includes at least one of wood, plastic, or metal;
receive user input to adjust the at least two points by moving the points within a graph to create a second bake cycle; and
cause a control system operatively coupled to at least one radiation emitter lamp to emit radiation via a first radiation emitter lamp included in the curing system by following the second bake cycle.
2 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to receive a “press and hold” user input via a touchscreen and to create a new point included in the curve based on the “press and hold” user input.
3 . The computer-readable medium of claim 2 , comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to determine if the new point lies between a first point and a second point of the at least two points and to delete a segment connecting the first point to the second point if the new point lies between the first point and the second point.
4 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the curve comprises a first ramping portion that ramps up a baking temperature and a plateau portion following the first ramping portion that maintains the baking temperature.
5 . The computer-readable medium of claim 4 , wherein the curve comprises a second ramping portion that ramps up the baking temperature following the plateau portion.
