Selection
UV fibre illumination and fluorescence screening
First test whether the material fluoresces under the selected UV band. Then separate excitation light from fluorescence with suitable filtering.

Selection
LXV-4LINV passively cooled line lighting
Leave adequate cooling space around passive line lights. Check ambient temperature and sustained output rather than cold-start brightness alone.

Selection
Light size and inspection field of view
Use the effective emitting area rather than housing size. Allow for part-position variation and fixture obstruction.

Separate colour capture and mixed fibre illumination
Fix capture order and verify synchronisation for separate colours. For mixed light, record channel ratios for repeatable illumination.

Selection
Diffuse lighting for square workpieces
Square-part corners may sit at different distances from the light. Check corners after rotation and height changes, not only the centre.

Selection
Component matching in SWIR fibre systems
Camera, lens, fibre and filters must support the target SWIR band. Any component can limit the available signal.

Selection
Zoned illumination and directional separation
Check part movement and trigger order during zoned captures. Images from different directions must remain spatially aligned.

Selection
Combining lighting for semiconductor inspection
Separate markings, outlines, bond wires and surface defects into distinct tasks before deciding which lighting arrangements can share a station.

Selection
Special geometries and combined illumination
Sketch the camera, part and fixture light paths before choosing special geometries. Check interference between combined light sources.

Selection
LXV-LBR diffuse bar illumination
Diffuse bars soften reflections but may reduce fine-scratch contrast. Evaluate the background and the defect together.

Selection
Beverage cap openings and sealing areas
Cap openings, liners and inner walls require different viewing depths. Check shadowing from the rim and fixture.

Selection
LXV-LDLB bar lights with integrated control
Verify power, trigger logic and brightness storage for integrated-control bars. Test their state after a power cycle.

Questions
What questions help frame the discussion?
Can an article replace sample testing?
No. Articles provide selection context; final lighting choices work well when compared with the actual workpiece, camera, lens, and production conditions.
