Collimated Tube Backlight

Metaphase Technologies Collimated Tube Lights are ideal for producing high contrast silhouettes.  The Collimated Tube Light boasts increased illumination compared to standard backlights when used with telecentric lensing. Telecentric illumination is ideal for precision measurements where accuracy, repeatability, and throughput are key factors in the application’s success. The key benefits of telecentric illumination are: superior detection of small defects, increased measurement accuracy and repeatability compared to standard backlight illumination, elimination of blurred edges caused by diffused reflections, increased light intensity from collimated light rays, high contrast images from elimination of blurred edges and increased light intensity, reduced camera exposure times from increased light intensity, faster systems and high throughput compared to standard backlight illumination and increased distance between object and illumination source.

The Collimated Tube Backlight is also available in our Short Wave Infrared Hybrid Spotlight:
