LF3D Rugged Series
Excellent optical performance and robust construction suitable for use in machine tools
Key Features:
Eliminates the multi-shadow effect
Reduced multi-shadow effect enables easy visual inspection of the machined surface. [Patent pending (LF3D)]
Reduces reflection from light source
LED light source reflects on the workpiece and stripes appear.
The LF3D LED allows the light to be evenly distributed
to provide natural lighting, and enables visual inspection.[Patent pending (LF3D)]
Uniform lighting provides uniform illumination inside the work area
By combining our optical design technology gained by development of LED lighting & sensors
and by optimum LED alignment, the brightness contrast difference is improved by 85%.
Select from standard or diffused light distribution depending on the machine tool needs
Equipped with glare mode to prevent operators from glare during maintenance [Patent pending (LF3D)]
Modes can be changed by just the wiring. Complicated settings such as PWM and dedicated controllers are not required.
Rugged construction and environmentally resistant
Suitable for use in machine tools

Effective solution for machine tools
LED lighting inside machine tool allows for clear identification of chatter marks
BEFORE
Hard to see chatter marks
Glares from LED lighting inside the machine tool could be mistaken as chatter marks while visually checking the machine operation. This often caused chatter marks to be left untreated, delaying maintenance and worsening the situation.
AFTER
LED lighting improves machining efficiency
IDEC's unique optical technology enables the light to shine evenly on the surface, suppressing multiple shadows and allowing the operator to
see scratches and unevenness on the workpiece. LF3D lighting makes it possible to check whether chatter marks have been generated or not easily, at a glance.
