Innovations In Optics, Inc. Demonstrates High Intensity LED Illuminators As Replacements For Lamps Used In High Volume Manufacturing

Innovations in Optics, Inc. has demonstrated LED illuminator technology that replaces mercury-xenon, tungsten-halogen, and low-pressure sodium arc lamps for high volume manufacturing.

IOI’s LED solutions provide reliability and economic advantages over arc lamps in applications such as flat panel display inspection, wafer inspection, maskless lithography, endoscopy, and fluorescence microscopy. IOI’s robust, patented designs enable superior power output and long lifetime with options for individual control of multiple wavelengths within one source.

Other advantages over arc lamps include mercury-free illumination, low-maintenance, and higher electrical efficiency with lower operating cost, and environmental safety with reduced CO2 emissions.

LumiDL
As a replacement for mercury arc lamps in industrial and semiconductor applications, LumiDL UV LED Illuminators have proven reliability with an install base of nearly 2000 units world-wide. Output flux &GT 30W is achievable with single and multispectral options.

LumiDL
Spectral Power Distribution Multiple UV wavelengths, including 365nm, 385nm, 395nm & 405nm, are available and wavelengths may be mixed within one illuminator and individually controlled.
