Professionals engaged in high-speed imaging of dynamic processes, such as laser welding and additive manufacturing, have achieved excellent results using the Lumiworks UHP-F light guide coupled LED system. This configuration has been rigorously tested with popular high-speed cameras, enabling welding process engineers to capture clear slow-motion videos with consistent success.

The setup features an ultra-high-power LED source coupled to a liquid light guide and compatible optics, delivering intense, uniform illumination at a safe working distance. Its robust design performs reliably in both industrial environments and controlled laboratory settings.

Many clients have adopted the red LED variant as a cost-effective alternative to traditional pulsed laser systems delivering comparable imaging quality while saving tens of thousands of dollars. For applications where spectral response is critical—due to material properties or camera sensitivities—blue or green LED options are available.
