LED
Lighting (Please Note - We do not stock any 'domestic' or 'event' lighting or illumination products)
LED
lighting is an expanding area within illumination, and with
the advent of high intensity LED's it is rapidly outclassing
other techniques. LED illumination benefits from long unit life,
at low to moderate cost. LEDs produce what is termed 'narrow
band illumination. There are many different kinds of lighting
geometry that can reveal surface defects, surface scratches,
and other surface features. Uses might include: web inspection
illumination, surface inspection, scratch detection, edge detection,
backlight or silhouette inspection among others. Different colours
are often available including IR (Infra-Red Illumination) and
UV (Ultra Violet Illumination).
The Cobra high powered linelight uses a patented Chip-On-Board technique to create an essentially unbroken line of high powered and very even illumination, particularly suited to linescan illumination applications.
Different lengths available in 125mm sections.
Backlight and frontlight illuminatin configurations available

Diffuse Low Angle
Illumination
Low
angle illumination using a diffusion plate system. These
lights provide a very even illumination in a standard
ringlight configuration, or in a square arangement when inspecting objects such as
PCBs and other rectangular components.
Optional
side view component allows the inspection of the top and
side of a cylindrical object simultaneously
Sizes
from 100mm to 180mm dia circular
and 32mm to 120mm square
Dome Illumination
Diffuse dome illumination generates an extremely even light onto the workpiece from almost every angle. This provides shadowless illumination over the entire surface of the work piece, making the LDM2 series excellent for glossy, curved surfaces
Ultra even illumination for demanding lighting situations
Available in 94mm and 50mm diameters
Flat Ring Illumination
Systems
The
flat ringlight illumination uses a flexible board mounting
system to embed the LED's within the solid diffusion plate.
This produces a very even distribution in an extremely
thin housing. Also available in a conical shape configuration.
Camera
Link interface simplifies camera integration control,
and cabling use a standard interface
Sizes
from 74mm - 272mm
Advanced Collimated
Illumination Systems
An on-axis collimated illumination system (parallel light beam) for very demanding vision applications, such as inspecting shallow deformations on shiny surfaces or flaws on CD's and other mirror like surfaces.

UV Ring Lights
CCS UV ring lights benefit from the same excellent build quality as the rest of the LED illumination range
These ring lights are particularly usefull in a range of security and printing applications, where otherwise hidden features can be revealed. Please call for more information.
UV can resolve to smaller wavelengths and reveal finer details.
Security and other print inspection applications
