The ML series LED panel lights offer more than just basic lighting for machine vision applications. With their modular design, customized lighting solutions can be easily configured without the need for additional development effort or high costs. These lights can have sizes of up to 1 square meter or larger, ensuring reliable illumination of larger inspection areas even from greater distances. The length and width of the lights can be freely defined in 50mm increments, allowing for special shapes such as L or U forms. The arrangement of the LEDs ensures a homogeneous illumination of the entire light surface, including the edges.
ML-Flächenbeleuchtungen lösen Qualitätskontrollproblem in Produktionsanlage effizient
The ML lighting series has already been successfully used in various complex applications. For example, it was instrumental in optimizing a production facility for pre-assembling coffee capsules in collaboration with the special machine manufacturer MM-SmartMachine. By using ML area lighting, a quality control issue that was causing recurrent production failures and high costs was effectively resolved. Another instance of its application is the development of an image processing solution for Netstal in partnership with IMD AG. The ML series enabled optimal control of PET bottle blanks and improved the entire inspection process.
Flexible ML-Area Lighting: Advantages for Lighting Developers
The modular design of the ML area lights offers numerous advantages for lighting developers. Its flexibility allows for easy customization to meet individual requirements and simplifies the resolution of mechanical challenges. Approximately 60% of development work can be saved, resulting in shorter delivery times and improved pricing conditions. The aluminum profile housings provide good availability, reduced manufacturing costs, and flexible design options. The electrical commissioning is straightforward and resource-efficient thanks to integrated controller technology and the uniform M16 connector. High light output enables bright, high-contrast images and reliable execution of inspection tasks.
Flexible and cost-effective lighting solutions for individual requirements
The LUMIMAX(R) ML area lights provide lighting developers with a practical solution for individual requirements. The modular concept allows for quick solutions without additional development effort and costs. The ML series fills a gap between standard and custom products, offering numerous benefits such as flexibility, good availability, and lower manufacturing costs. With the ML area lights, individual lighting solutions can be easily and efficiently realized.
