Watching a TV show where they visited a cabinet factory. They used a glue that cured instantly when they held an electrical box near it (UV?). I know nothing about them, but very interested in using a system like it. I hated waiting for glue to dry.

It was probably RF curing of PVA. Here's an old post (https://sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?245817-Heat-curing-of-various-glues&p=2588553#post2588553) about that.

Agree, probably RF. I have an old WorkRite 4000 that we use to make rush doors. The glue joint still has to cool down before sanding or it will telegraph as the wood shrinks. But it is fast and effective with wood glue.
