As UV LED-based curing lamps continue to replace mercury lamps, the switch to a very different technology has required a new approach to specification with a different set of selection criteria. Understanding the technical and commercial considerations can help you to specify the optimum UV LED Curing system for your application. This whitepaper outlines key considerations to optimize curing, form factor and control requirements, system validation, reliability and cost of ownership.
This whitepaper discusses Irradiance and Energy Density (Dose), two key UV lamp characteristics to ensure you achieve the optimal cure in your application. It defines the key concepts, discusses how differences between UV curing lamps can affect the overall cure through the variation in these factors, as well as the measurement of irradiance and energy density.
In recent years, multispectral and hyperspectral imaging has advanced rapidly into new applications and the technology required is now becoming more affordable in both the laboratory and the production environment. This whitepaper discusses key illumination considerations for spectral imaging.
The Illumination Considerations in Multispectral and Hyperspectral Imaging Whitepaper discusses:
With ever increasing quality, traceability and safety requirements in the food and beverage industry, more and more businesses are looking toward vision systems to help improve their efficiencies and overall performance. The rapid improvements in multispectral and hyperspectral imaging technologies, coupled with reduced component costs, has enabled a wider range of applications to benefit from LED technology. In applications such as food and beverage inspection, sorting, grading and analysis; optimized multispectral and hyperspectral lighting is enabling greater efficiencies and accuracy, higher inspection rates, increased throughput and improved quality over traditional technologies.

Lighting is fundamental to a successful machine vision application. Proper LED selection will ensure best contrast and efficiency, while optics, mechanics, and electronics support a system that meets the needs of a given application. In addition, firmware and GUI options further support an optimal lighting setup. This whitepaper will discuss each of these considerations and provide application examples.
Within machine vision systems, inappropriate or poor quality lighting can often result in longer processing times and reduced throughput. This paper examines how to select the optimum illuminator.
Optimizing Throughput with Machine Vision Lighting outlines:
High-quality illumination is the key to a successful vision system. Optimizing your illumination is critical to maximizing inspection quality, speed, and reliability. This is particularly challenging in high speed, high-resolution line scan applications. This paper examines lighting technologies including fluorescent, fiber-delivered halogen, and LED Lighting. It also discusses the most common techniques for line scan illumination. The paper illustrates, through multiple application examples, how to achieve the optimum performance from a line scan vision system.
Laser modules play a critical role in many processes, and selecting the right laser module is essential to optimize system performance. Applications will vary widely in their requirements and the key parameters for each application will also differ. In this new whitepaper, ProPhotonix’s experts examine the key parameters and trade-offs involved in specifying laser modules for optimal system performance.
There are many specification parameters to consider when specifying a laser module and compromises may be required with an off-the-shelf solution. With a custom laser solution, no compromise is required, and specifiers can benefit from better performance, lower complexity, and often a more cost-effective solution.
The task of specifying the ideal laser module for your application can seem challenging. This whitepaper details the key considerations in specifying your laser module, outlining a 7-element approach to success.
The 7-element approach to laser specification includes:
Ensuring that the correct laser diode is chosen for your specific application is critical. In this whitepaper, we will discuss the issues you will face when specifying a laser diode.
