Optronics International, a supplier of heavy-duty LED vehicle lighting, will be displaying its stop, tail, turn lamps with integrated graphics in booth 2547 at the North American Commercial Vehicle (NACV) Show.
The new lamps juxtapose a smooth GloLight lens appearance against a more traditional LED pattern. Examples of the new four-inch round and six-inch oval stop, tail, turn lamps will be displayed publicly for the first time.
“This is an industry first and a novel use for our GloLight technology,” said Brett Johnson, president and CEO of Optronics International. “Logos and branding have been widely incorporated into conspicuity tape for decades, so the migration to lighting is a logical one.”
The new lamp’s traditional LED-style lens pattern surrounds the logo graphic in the middle of the lamp. The GloLight logo portion of the lamp illuminates when operating in its standard function as a tail lamp, and when the lamp’s turn signal or brake functions are in operation, all portions of the LED lamp brighten.
Optronics employed its 3D-printing capabilities in preparing prototypes for the manufacturers. The company also worked with a number of OEMs during the development of the lamp, including Vanguard National Trailer Corp. and Miller Industries.
Optronics products are available in the U.S. and Canada through the company’s distribution network of more than 20,000 convenient distribution locations.
