Lightspeed screen exposure units advantages

In the video Shawn explains some unique and distinct advantages over other tech and how Lightspeed UV LED bulbs insure a level of detail and quality of shooting screens.

We were the first in development using LEDs in screen printing exposure units, first to put a multi-spectrum led based unit on the market, and what we found during our stages of work on it, and trying to make this work was, a single colored LED would not properly expose all different emulsions. We had to widen that spectrum by at least 2 LEDs of different nanometers per bulb.

So, once we accomplished that feat, patented it, and 2 other people have tried to put 2 colors (LED) in theirs but with the patents we were able to stop them. Lightspeed has the only LED exposure unit on the market that will properly expose. It’s the only unit on the market that has an LED bulbs that’s made specifically for exposing screens. Everybody else is either using black light lighting lights, or rope lights like you might find in a casino, or string lights.

We also developed patented lenses that focus the lumens into a 60 degree angle, to insure crisp, detail screens. No other manufacturer has this feature in their exposure units. You can see the difference in the results when you shoot screens, no matter what kind of emulsion you are using.

Shooting screens is a crucial step of the screen printing process, as you know, the quality of your screen print is only as good as the quality of your screen. A better exposure unit will produce a better screen, which ultimately leads to a better screen print.

Each unit includes white placement lights that are UV free, to assist with placing screens accurately, without exposure. Our units deliver fast, uniform and high resolution exposures using long lasting LED UV lights. In addition to fast exposure times and fine line details, our units will reduce your set up times, energy costs and overall cost of ownership.Unlike expensive metal-halide bulbs that require regular replacements, run at high temperatures and require startup and cool down time, our LED lights operate at much lower temperatures, can last over 50,000 hours and start and stop immediately with the touch of a button.
