Built specifically for the testing and analysis of LED light engines, OPTEK's lab capabilities include 100% colour temperature and/or intensity screening for the tightest binning specifications (CIE colour coordinate testing with a repeatability of .002 with respect to X and Y; intensity testing with an accuracy of ±2%; and wavelength testing with accuracy of ±0.75 nm).
"Our lab's ability to provide screening for LED binning smaller than ANSI standards enables our customers to deliver uniform colour temperature and consistent colour for applications where lighting aesthetics are critical," says Roland Chapa, OPTEK's vice-president of Integrated Solutions. "This level of precision screening and testing is vital for customers who require a specific colour light associated with their brand or corporate image, and it's a capability that typical contract manufacturers are unable to provide."
"Each piece of equipment in the OPTEK lab is designed to provide quantifiable and repeatable test results that establish long-term, stable reference points for LED design engineers and manufacturers," says Mike King, product manager of visible LED assemblies for OPTEK Technologies. "We're committed to maintaining our lab at the highest level of reliability, with all of our equipment calibrated to NIST standards."
