ISO Class 8 Cleanroom for SMT & MI Lines

Our precision-engineered SMT and MI production lines operate within a meticulously controlled ISO Class 8 cleanroom environment, maintaining particle counts below 3,520 particles per cubic meter. This contamination-free zone is essential for LED assembly, where even microscopic particles can compromise optical performance and long-term reliability.  

Advanced Environmental Control 
  • HEPA filtration systems with 99.97% efficiency at 0.3 microns 
  • Laminar airflow patterns creating stable air movement and positive pressure 
  • Temperature maintained within ±1°C and humidity at 45–55% RH 
  • Electrostatic discharge controls prevent static damage, while solder paste is kept within ideal temperature and viscosity ranges for reliable application 
Precision Placement Technology 

Our high-speed pick-and-place machines use vision-guided alignment with micron-level accuracy, ensuring exact placement of even the smallest electronic components. Real-time inspection systems verify solder quality immediately after reflow, using a nitrogen-controlled environment to ensure optimal LED bonding and color performance. 

Automated optical inspection (AOI) systems capture high-resolution images during multiple stages to identify defects early. This reduces error rates to under 50 parts per million while maintaining throughput of up to 45,000 components per hour.

Streamlined Assembly Area with ESD Control 

Beyond standard ESD safety measures, our assembly operations use a connected manufacturing system to coordinate every step of production. Workstations feature anti-static flooring, ionization units, and strict grounding protocols, limiting any electrostatic discharge to safe levels.

Smart Assembly Systems
  • Ergonomically designed workstations with color-balanced lighting
  • Detailed instructions showing live assembly steps
  • Barcode scans and RFID chips for component-level tracking
  • Automated material handling to reduce manual touchpoints
Process Excellence

Statistical quality control systems continuously monitor key parameters, such as torque values or placement force, and automatically flag deviations. This keeps our first-pass yield rate above 98% and minimizes scrap.

Each product’s full history is digitally recorded, enabling quick root cause analysis and faster resolutions when needed.

High-End R&D and Testing Lab 

Our in-house laboratory supports both product innovation and in-depth validation testing, ensuring consistent performance over time and in varied environments. 

Spectral Analysis & Color Validation

We use high-resolution spectrometers to assess color accuracy, light quality (CRI), and full-spectrum distribution, enabling tight color control and application-specific lighting development.

Environmental Testing Capabilities

To simulate global usage conditions, from cold storage to tropical environments, our lab conducts:

  • Temperature cycling between -40°C and +85°C
  • Humidity testing from 10% to 95% RH
  • Thermal shock testing with rapid heating and cooling cycles
  • UV exposure testing to simulate years of sunlight in a shorter time frame
Photometric Testing Excellence

Using integrating spheres and goniophotometers, we precisely measure brightness, beam angles, and light distribution for architectural and commercial fixtures.

Thermal imaging tools help optimize heat dissipation, while lumen maintenance testing, aligned with LM-80 standards, verifies long-term LED performance over up to 10,000 hours.

Automated Coating and Finishing 

Our powder coating facility uses automated spray systems and controlled ovens to deliver consistently smooth, durable finishes that meet both functional and aesthetic needs.  

Precision Application Process  
  • Robotic sprayers apply coatings evenly within ±5 microns
  • Multi-stage surface preparation ensures long-lasting adhesion
  • Parts are aligned and moved automatically for consistent positioning
  • Infrared monitoring controls curing temperature throughout  
Sustainable Operations

Overspray is captured and reused, thanks to advanced recovery systems that keep material usage above 95%. Color consistency is maintained through precise powder handling and environmental control.

Multi-zone ovens adapt temperature in real time to optimize durability, color stability, and impact resistance.

Quality Validation
  • Non-destructive coating thickness checks
  • Adhesion testing following ASTM standards
  • Corrosion resistance tested via extended salt spray exposure

Injection Molding Facility with Advanced Robotics 

Our molding operations combine precision equipment with automated handling to produce high-quality components, especially for optical and structural LED parts.  

Advanced Molding Technology

All-electric molding machines offer repeatable performance, with precise control over speed, pressure, and cooling. Robotic arms with flexible movement manage complex part handling while preserving the structural integrity of delicate designs.

Process Control Excellence
  • Temperature-controlled molds ensure dimensional accuracy
  • Smart runner systems (temperature-controlled flow channels) prevent overheating and material waste
  • Real-time monitoring of pressure, melt flow, and cycle times
  • Auto-adjusting systems maintain consistent production quality  
Quality Assurance Integration  

Laser-based dimension checks verify each part before packing. Acceptable and defective parts are automatically sorted, while tracking systems maintain complete records from raw material to finished product.

Quality Assurance Lab with Validation Equipment 

Our validation lab ensures every product can withstand real-world wear and tear, including environmental, mechanical, and electrical stresses, before reaching the customer.  

Environmental Protection Testing

IP testing chambers replicate dust storms and heavy rain, ensuring that lighting enclosures meet or exceed protection ratings.

Mechanical Durability Testing

To simulate harsh handling and transport conditions, we run:

  • Vibration tests across a wide frequency range
  • Salt spray exposure for corrosion testing up to 1,000 hours
  • Drop testing from up to 3 meters
  • High-speed impact testing for structural resilience
Electrical Safety & Performance

We perform full-spectrum electrical tests including insulation resistance, grounding checks, and high-voltage isolation, using automated setups aligned with global safety standards (UL, IEC).  

Long-Term Reliability Validation

Products are exposed to prolonged high-heat and humidity conditions to simulate years of usage. We track how brightness, color, and electrical behavior evolve, providing robust performance data to back our warranty claims.

UV, temperature, and chemical exposure tests further ensure products stay reliable across real-world environments and use cases.
