Workhorse Products has launched the Lumitron series of LED screen-exposure units designed to reduce setup time, energy costs, and exposure time. Compared to metal halide bulbs, the LED strips used in the Lumitron units produce lower temperatures and don’t require startup or cool-down times; they deliver the required UV frequency immediately. They also last longer than metal halide bulbs, with a lifespan of more than 50,000 hours, according to the company.
