Light Box (LED)
Uniform, low-heat backlighting for cleanroom inspection, microscopy prep, and defect detection.
LED Backlighting Even Illumination Low Heat Inspection & QA
LED light boxes provide consistent, uniform backlighting that makes defects and contamination easier to see—especially on translucent or semi-transparent materials. They are widely used for cleanroom quality checks because LED systems run cooler, stabilize quickly, and support repeatable inspection results.
Common cleanroom applications
  • Particle & defect detection: highlights scratches, fibers, pits, residues, and haze on films, foils, plastics, and coated parts.
  • Filter and membrane inspection: improves visibility of inclusions, tears, non-uniformity, and trapped particulates.
  • Sample prep & documentation: stable illumination for consistent images and visual comparisons.
  • Process verification: supports incoming QA, in-process checks, and final release inspection in regulated environments.
WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN SELECTING AN LED LIGHT BOX
  • Illumination uniformity: reduces hot spots that can mask defects or cause false positives.
  • Color temperature and contrast: helps operators identify subtle residue, film variation, and surface haze.
  • Dimmer behavior: smooth control supports different materials and inspection criteria.
  • Footprint and viewing area: match the work surface to your part size, documents, filters, or sample trays.
