A curing apparatus (400) includes a housing (402) having a sidewall (404) with an inlet (408) spaced apart from an outlet (410) along an axis, the housing defining an interior chamber (406). At least one opening (419) extends through the sidewall of the housing, for example from the inlet to the outlet. At least one ultraviolet radiation source (426) is operative for transmitting ultraviolet radiation into the interior chamber. At least one nozzle (436) is in flow communication with the interior chamber. The at least one opening is an open slot configured to receive a portion of an article carrier moving along a guideway outside of the housing such that an article supported by the article carrier moves through the interior chamber from the inlet to the outlet on the portion of the article carrier extending through the slot.
