Mississauga, Canada, [January 16, 2012] — Lumen Dynamics, a world leader in light delivery technologies, announces the expansion of its UV bonding solutions into wide area curing applications. Since 1984, Lumen Dynamics has earned a reputation as a market leader in UV spot curing and continues to grow its product portfolio of UV curing solutions that has now extended into wide area curing applications to help address the challenges in industrial manufacturing processes.
Earlier this year, Lumen Dynamics introduced its OmniCure© LC280 UV LED linear curing solution for wide area curing in a number of industrial applications. Designed with a unique combination of high power UV output and low temperature curing, the LC280 enables manufacturers to achieve outstanding throughput performance and increased product yields. The LC280 generates low heat during the curing process accommodating a wider range of substrates and materials to be cured without heat damage normally caused by traditional lamp-based solutions. Innovative air-cooled UV LED technology eliminates the need for external cooling and ozone venting while consuming less power than lamp-based systems to simplify integration into new or existing production line infrastructures. For even greater flexibility, manufacturers are able to adjoin multiple systems together to expand the addressable curing area. Sample applications that can benefit from this technology include industrial applications such as display assembly, electronics components, speaker assembly, lens bonding and film lamination; also medical applications such as syringes, filters and insulin pens.
“We are excited about the expansion of our Industrial product portfolio of UV curing systems for wide area curing applications and look forward to introducing multiple new products in the New Year that will address the needs of various industrial applications,” stated Karim Kanji, President and CEO of Lumen Dynamics. “We have taken the control and repeatability built into all of our UV spot curing systems and are now offering these same advantages in wide area industrial applications.”
Lumen Dynamics UV curing application expertise doesn’t stop there! The company owns state-of-the art material testing capabilities and works with material suppliers to help customers make the smooth transition to UV LED curing processes. With application specialists on staff and process experts out in the field, Lumen Dynamics is able to offer customers worldwide, with key resources to assist them in their UV process development and testing.
Lumen Dynamics is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified which underscores the company’s commitment to providing highest quality products and support to its customers. This is reinforced by Lumen Dynamics’ recent awards for outstanding innovation and service.

Mississauga, ON, Canada [December 13, 2012] – Lumen Dynamics, a world leader in light delivery technologies, achieves the 2012 Microscopy Today Innovation Award for its X-Cite® XLED1 Internal Pulse Generator. Recognized for innovation on the basis of importance and usefulness to the microscopy community, the Internal Pulse Generator provides researchers with precise time control and pulsing of each LED for advanced biological imaging applications.
Offered exclusively in the X-Cite® XLED1, the Internal Pulse Generator provides fast, timed wavelength switching between LEDs beyond the scope of motorized filter wheels into unprecedented microsecond speeds. Researchers can now capture a level of fast cell dynamics in multi-color live cell experiments that was previously limited by existing technologies. The ability to pulse each LED at microsecond speeds is also believed to extend the life of cells by reducing the effects of photobleaching and cellular damage caused by continuous illumination of light.
With the Internal Pulse Generator, the X-Cite® XLED1 can serve not only as a premium light source, but as a central triggering device, synchronizing peripherals such as cameras and stages with LED on/off events. With the selection of an appropriate filter set, researchers can upgrade the functionality and control of their microscope by eliminating the need for additional automation equipment, thereby saving thousands of dollars as well as extra time that would be required for integration into their imaging system.
"We are honored that the Microscopy Society of America has recognized Lumen Dynamics for our innovative technology in the X-Cite® XLED1 designed to help solve the challenges of the research community," stated Kavita Aswani, PhD, Senior Applications Scientist at Lumen Dynamics. "We continue to focus on creating new fluorescence illumination solutions that best cater to the needs of researchers and their applications."
The Microscopy Today Innovation Awards were established to honor innovative microscopy related methods and products. Ten winners are selected each year on the basis of their importance and usefulness to the microscopy community ranging from simple innovations to sophisticated instruments and methods.
