Product Innovation

Application of enhanced cold and hot air convection structure

The built-in exhaust fan enhances the convection of hot and cold air, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of the heat dissipation.

Application of glass housing and heat dissipation

Glass replaces the metal housing, breaks through traditional materials and processing technology, better weather resistance.
Quick and easy assembly.
Excellent cost reduction opportunities.

Application of integrated wire for anti-siphon with breather

Combination design of a waterproof connector, breather and electrical wire.
Simple assembly, three parts are simplified into one part.
Lower material and production costs.

Graphene composite

Utilize a Graphene composite material which has high thermal conductivity properties and is chemically stable. This invention allows us to lower material and assembling cost.

The application of distribution technology with wider application and higher usage efficacy

Based on the basic calculation of road brightness, relax the edge diffusion control while ensuring the anti-glare performance, and effectively reducing the road surface "zebra effect" A new optical innovation which reduces glare and improves light control and easily adapts to different distribution types while increasing optical efficiency.

Street light optical design principle

Application of anti-glare, asymmetric reflector light distribution technology

LEDs is semi-hidden, the light of the smaller light intensity part of the direct emission, while the light of the larger light intensity part of the reflection of the surface under the reflector will become indirect lighting, both to improve the utilization of the light pass and effectively suppress the direct glare.
The light outlet is designed to increase the area of the light outlet, effectively eliminating the visual discomfort caused by the strong directivity of LEDs.
Textured glass lampshade, smooth texture surface, more corrosion resistance, easier cleaning, and higher light transmittance than ordinary frosted glass. Anti-glare effect of textured glass is particularly obvious.

Application of screw-less riveting flanging sealing technology

No pre-drilling or tapping required, saving processing costs.
The module does not require any other fastening parts, saving material costs.
The light source cavity is sealed by aluminum riveted and crimped edges with IP67 protection.
Mechanized automatic assembly without any manual operation, greatly improves assembly efficiency while eliminating human error.
