Intematix unveiled a new lighting system that it says will improve the efficiency of LED lighting and reduce manufacturing costs.
Compared to conventional LED designs, where blue chips are coated with a
phosphor compound, the ChromaLit system separates the phosphor from the blue LED energy source.
Intematix says the innovation will allow lighting system manufacturers to keep the
phosphor performance stable over the module’s lifetime and design
color-consistent, uniform luminaires.
Intematx may complete mezzanine round of funding this quarter and attempt an IPO within the next year, according to Greentech media.
ChromaLit is now generally available to LED luminaire and lighting module manufacturers. Intemax says the system can provide up to 30% higher system efficacy, as well as providing design freedom and more efficient manufacturing processes.
ChromaLit products are customizable in geometry, color temperature, CRI and substrate material, offering flexibility and creative opportunities never before seen in luminaires. Uniform, curvilinear and three-dimensional lighting designs are now made possible where challenges existed with conventional LED approaches, Intematix says.
Additionally, luminaire manufacturers now have the option of
interchangeable ChromaLit light sources. This enables manufacturers to
simplify LED binning management and reduce inventory. A blue LED energy
supply unit can be stocked, along with compact and easily swappable
ChromaLit light sources instead of many individual completed luminaires.
ChromaLit also eliminates the necessity of a diffuser allowing for higher system efficacy than conventional LED
lighting systems, both in white illumination and in colored specialty
lighting applications like signs and signals.
Headquartered in Fremont, California, Intematix maintains R&D, manufacturing, business and support operations in the United States, Asia and Europe.
