A method for thermally activating a functional layer of a coating material, wherein the method comprises the following steps:
- providing the coating material;
- feeding the coating materials into a device for thermally activating a functional layer of the coating material;
- and
- thermally activating the functional layer of the coating material,
- wherein the thermal activation of the functional layer of the coating material is performed by electromagnetic waves that are synchronised via phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronisation, the electromagnetic waves being produced by first and second semiconductor wave generators.
A device for thermally activating a functional layer of a coating material having:
- at least one semiconductor wave generator and an additional semiconductor wave generator,
- wherein the at least one semiconductor wave generator is able to produce electromagnetic waves which are then able to thermally activate the functional layer of the coating material, the at least one semiconductor wave generator and the additional semiconductor wave generator being designed to produce electromagnetic waves that are synchronised via phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronisation.
A device for thermally activating a functional layer of a coating material having:
- a first semiconductor wave generator;
