Homogeneous Line Illumination for Automated Inspection in Production Processes
Development and mass production of LED and fiber optic line light systems for use in industrial glas and semiconducter inspection.
Color Measurement
Homogeneous light over the entire illuminated area and a high degree of color fidelity of the light cube are essential for color measurement in adjustment of RGB color balance in smartphone production, production of high-grade textile fibers, and automotive painting.
Curing of Paints
Environmentally harmful mercury vapor lamps are still widely used for curing paints. LED UV lamps from Volpi cure paints reliably at a much lower energy consumption while avoiding the damaging effects of thermal radiation into the paint.

Light Modules and Light Sources
Selecting the right light source for the given application is crucial. We have been developing and producing light modules and light sources with different illuminators such as halogen, xenon and LED light sources for over 15 years now, and most recently laser light sources. Besides supplying top light quality and intensity, our products are extremely reliable and maintenance-friendly. Developed and manufactured to ISO 13485, they are used in endoscopy, ophthalmology, phototherapy, microscopy, and image processing. Examples of typical characteristics are given below.
- Illuminance > 100,000 lux
- Fiber coupling for diameters from 100 microns to 30 mm
- Light variation < 1%
- Color rendering index (CRI) > 90
- Long-term stability > 50,000 operating hours
- Variable color setting
Light Transmission with Fiber Optics
Fiber opticsOptical fibers have been used for decades for reliable and flexible transmission of light. Their diversity, flexibility, cost-effectiveness for small batch sizes, and durability are only a few of their advantages. We have the right fiber optic solution for every demanding application:
- Fiber optic cables
- Fiber optic bundles
- Fiber optic ring lights and light lines
- Fiber optic measuring heads and sensors
- Imaging fiber optic bundles
Illumination Modules
We are pioneers in imaging processing and can make sure your test object is perfectly illuminated. Applications that have been realized with our light modules and light sources include the following:
- Inspection of glass defects of sizes less than 3 microns
- UV illumination for microscopes and gel imagers
- RGB illumination for gel imagers
- UV curing
- IR defect detection in wafers
- Paper currency inspection
- Photodynamic therapy
- Mail sorting
- Quality inspection of syringes
Our Standard Products
Our company is one of the leading manufacturers of high-power light sources, high-quality fiber optic components, and state-of-the-art LED lights, all of which can be ordered directly from our distributors.
Our products are mainly employed in the fields of machine vision, microscopy, and forensic science. The product catalog is divided up into the following product groups:
Standard Light Sources
A fiber optic illumination system always consists of two basic components: a light source and a fiber optic light guide. We develop and sell traditional halogen cold light sources as well as state-of-the-art high-power LED light sources.
Standard Fiber Optic Lighting Components
The classic application in lighting is coupling of IR-free cold light to a fiber optic light guide. This allows the necessary light to be guided precisely to the respective illumination field.
Standard LED Lighting Components
Because of their low power consumption, state-of-the-art LED lighting systems pay off quickly. Energy savings of approximately 90% can be achieved with them in comparison with conventional halogen lights. Added to that are their low maintenance requirements, which contribute further to reducing running costs.
