lámpara de termocurado
Explanation:
Alright, I found the term termocurado in dentistry materials, but not in lamps. Nevertheless, I would leave it as lámpara de termocurado and then ask a dentist about it. Still, I guess the materials must be cured somehow and since they're called acrílicos de termocurado, they must cured using heat, so the heat-cure lamp could be a lámpara de termocurado.

Good luck.

lámpara de curado


Explanation:
I have never seen the "heat-cure" term before, but as I see it says "LED", then it's most probably referring to a "lámpara de fotocurado LED".
I know this because I translate dentistry texts and my editor is a dentist.

By the way, the most usual term in English is "light-cure" lamp, this is the 1st time I see heat-cure
