Shine 360° of shadow-free light on objects under microscopes to make defects more visible during inspections. The even lighting these illuminators produce reduces glare and creates strong visual contrast between small components, such as parts on circuit boards.

LED illuminators use less energy, produce less heat, and last longer than fluorescent illuminators. Ultraviolet LED illuminators expose defects such as cracks and holes in parts when used with fluorescent dye or powder. They’re often used for leak detection and quality control testing.

ESD-safe illuminators have a coating that dissipates static electricity, preventing damage if they make contact with sensitive components during inspections.

Illuminators and replacement bulbs that cannot be sold to the listed areas are restricted by local regulatory limits on mercury content.

Surround your camera with light for perfectly aligned brightness. These small and lightweight ring lights are mounted directly around your machine vision camera or vision sensor. You can synchronize these lights with your camera, so they flash as images are captured. To attach them directly to your camera, you'll need a mount (sold separately). If you'd rather mount them to a frame or stand, they have a T-slot on the back and come with mounting fasteners. Each light requires an M12 cable (sold separately) for power.

Rectangular lights shine directly onto items. They are brighter than round lights, so they can be farther away.

Round lights do not have corners, so they shine light more evenly than rectangular lights. This lets you use them at low angles to highlight surface flaws.

White lights are clean and crisp, giving off cool tones that are ideal for inspection work.

Red lights won’t create a reflection or glare because the color is absorbed by materials, which makes them ideal for inspecting shiny glass, plastic, or metal objects.

Infrared lights help you see through material, such as objects wrapped in thin paper, cloth, or plastic.
