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). Select Illumination
