A: We offer a range of optical components, including optical films, diffusion sheet, and light guides, as well as LED arrays. We also design full system solutions for all light fixtures and applications, focusing on the light engine design.
Q: Do you do custom work?
A: Yes. We design system solutions based on our customers’ needs. Aside from our standard products, we offer solutions for different size fixtures, and fixtures requiring specific attributes. Typically, custom products require a 4-8 week lead time depending on the nature of the project.
Q: What makes your lighting system solutions unique?
A: We focus on the entire system, rather than just the light source or the optical properties. We have IP surrounding the components, as well as the system design. We design and manufacture each component that goes into our systems, the only exception being the LED package. We focus on edge-lit systems to create fixtures that are slim and adaptable.
Q: Do you design your own LED arrays?
A: Yes. We design our LED arrays and put a lot of time into LED choice. All of our arrays include thermal management schemes and reflector housings.
Q: Do you offer free samples of ADF?
A: Yes. We offer free 3”x6” samples of our standard ADF products. We also sell film kits that include 6”x6” sheets of our standard ADF products.
Q: Can you make custom films?
A: Yes. We make custom films according to our customers’ requirements. These films are ~4” samples that can be scaled once performance is accepted by the customer. Lead time for custom films is typically 1-2 weeks depending on the nature of the film.
Q: How is your diffusion film unique?
A: While most diffusion films have surface coatings or use holography, ADF employs volumetric diffusion. The diffusion material is in the bulk of the film, leaving both film surfaces smooth or matte, depending on the application. ADF is less expensive than alternatives because it is a one step process using standard polymer materials; there is no extra material, extra manufacturing steps, or special tooling required. ADF is more durable and scratch resistant than alternatives because there are no surface coatings or structures.
Q: Is it possible to have ADF on a rigid substrate?
A: Yes. ADF can be mated to a rigid substrate to form a rigid sheet or lens.
