Claim 0:
1. An apparatus for irradiating a substrate, comprising:
a platform, which is straight or curved in relation to a longitudinal axis of the platform,
wherein one or more upstream modules and/or one or more downstream modules are reversibly attachable directly or indirectly to a bottom side of the platform by sliding or inserting or mounting in one or more fixed or telescoping module attachment devices provided on the bottom side of the platform, each extending from a front side of the apparatus and in a direction of a back side of the apparatus, wherein the one or more upstream modules include one or more of irradiation modules or substrate supply air modules, and wherein the one or more downstream modules include one or more substrate exhaust air modules,
wherein in relation to a conveying direction of the substrate to be irradiated, the apparatus further comprises: one or more upstream printheads upstream of the one or more upstream modules, the one or more upstream modules for supplying substrate supply air and/or,
downstream of the one or more downstream modules, the apparatus further comprises one or more downstream printheads, the one or more downstream modules for extracting substrate supply air,
wherein, between the one or more upstream printheads and the upstream module for supplying substrate supply air, a first bulkhead or a first partition wall is provided and/or,
between the one or more downstream printheads and the downstream module for extracting substrate supply air, a second bulkhead or a second partition wall is provided,
wherein, between lower ends of the bulkheads or partition walls facing the substrate to be irradiated and the substrate to be irradiated, a gap is formed, wherein a vertical height of this gap lies in a range of 0.1 mm to 5.0 mm, wherein, in upper end regions of the bulkheads or partition walls facing away from the substrate to be irradiated, one or more small-area or large-area recesses or openings are provided for passage of air.
