From photometric study to commissioning

Three things happen between your drawing and a lit facade. Each one is done in house.

  1. 001//

    Photometric study and mock-up

    The design file decides the optics. We import the layout, pick the beam for the throw distance and send the IES or LDT back for DIALux or AGi32 before anything is cut.

    • IES / LDT per family
    • DIALux · AGi32
    • 1:1 mock-up panel
    • 3-step MacAdam binning
    Darkroom measurement bench: a linear fixture clamped in a goniometer arm, an integrating sphere half open beside it, instrument screen unreadable
    4 m goniometer arm, darkroom run on every family

  2. 002//

    Configured to the facade drawing

    Nothing here is cut to a catalogue length. Pitch follows the viewing distance, segments follow the mullion grid, brackets are drawn to the fixing detail — including the dies for a bent corner.

    • P25 / P37.5 / P50 pitch to distance
    • field-cuttable 300 / 600 / 1000 mm
    • brackets drawn to the fixing detail
    • profile dies in house
    Installation detail behind a curtain wall: an anodised aluminium fixture clipped to the mullion bracket, waterproof connector and cable tied into the profile channel
    ±1.5 mm bracket tolerance held to the mullion grid

  3. 003//

    Commissioning and phased delivery

    The chain has to hold up on site. One controller drives 12 000 pixels per port across Art-Net, sACN or RDM; we ship in phases that match the site programme and keep spares for the run.

    • 12 000 px per port · 8 ports
    • Art-Net 4 · sACN E1.31 · DMX512-A / RDM
    • 3 840 Hz refresh · 16-bit grey
    • phased delivery, spares held

From extrusion to 200-hour ageing

Assembly and ageing hall: three aisles of powered ageing racks with pixel fixtures lit, two workers in dark grey workwear recording readingsEvery fixture is extruded, potted and aged here before it ships.

Profile extrusion and SMT driver assembly, potting and sealing, a darkroom photometric run, then 200 hours on the ageing racks — the same building the spares come from.

When do we get the IES and LDT files?

With the quotation, for the families in the scheme. Per-configuration files follow the mock-up panel, because the beam changes once the bracket angle is fixed.

Art-Net or sACN — and how many pixels per port?

Both, plus DMX512-A and RDM on the same controller. 12 000 pixels per port across eight ports, 16 universes per unit, frame-synced with under one frame of drift.

What IP and IK class, and how does the wiring stay dry?

IP66 for the linear family, IP67 for tubes, IP68 for point light with IK09 to IK10. Every joint is a gasketed M12 or a potted inline connector; the harness is specified with the bracket drawing.

How tight is batch-to-batch colour?

Three-step MacAdam bins held across the order, and the LM-79 report for the reference CCT ships with the file pack. Mixed bins are quoted separately, never substituted.

Can you build to a bent or irregular facade?

Yes — pitch, segment length, bracket and profile die are all set from the facade drawing. Send a DWG or a dimensioned elevation and we quote the tooling with the fixtures.

What is the lead time, and can it be phased?

25 to 35 days for project quantities, split into drops that match the site programme. Pilot batches run 20 to 25 days; samples with a photometric report run 10 to 14 days.

Warranty and spares?

Five years on fixtures, three on controllers and drivers. Spares for the pixel run are held for the project and shipped from the same production batch.
