CNC / machine tools / machining centres

Precise control under coolant, high pressure, and chip impact

Machining centres and machine tools (3-/5-axis, turn-mill, automated cells) operate at high productivity with intensive coolant supply and chip flow. For consistent quality, low-shadow visibility of the tool and workpiece as well as robust, low-maintenance lighting in the confined working area are essential.

Typical requirements:
Coolant/oil mist and regular cleaning, chip impact, vibration and shock, very compact installation space in the working area, low-shadow and glare-free illumination for setup, inspection, and maintenance, constant flicker-free light quality, high protection requirements, and long-lasting continuous operation.

LED2WORK solution:
Homogeneous, low-shadow light for precise setup and reliable process control; robust machine luminaires for coolant/oil environments and chips; installation-friendly variants for the working area, enclosure, and operator area.

Recommended luminaires:

TUBELED_40 II, Basic-Line, Integrated (highly robust for oil/coolant and chips in the machine interior)
TUBELED_70 EVO (robust, high-performance, also ideal for retrofitting)
FIELDLED EVO for recessed or surface mounting
VARILED II (compact, simple, powerful)

Metalworking machines (general)

Reliable visibility with oil, coolant, and chips

Metalworking machines include turning, milling, drilling, sawing, and grinding in a wide range of configurations. For consistent quality and process reliability, clear visibility, robust components, and low-maintenance lighting are essential—even under the influence of coolants, chips, and mechanical stress.

Typical requirements:
Exposure to oil and coolant, metallic chips/particles, vibration and shock, low-shadow and glare-free illumination for setup and inspection, compact installation space in the machine interior, high ingress protection ratings, low maintenance, fast cleaning, and easy retrofitting.

LED2WORK solution:
Homogeneous, low-shadow lighting for safe workpiece and tool inspection; extremely robust machine luminaires for continuous industrial operation; a wide range of variants for different machine concepts and quick integration into existing systems.

Recommended luminaires:

TUBELED_40 II, Basic-Line, Integrated (highly robust for oil/coolant and chips in the machine interior)
TUBELED_70 EVO (robust, high-performance, also ideal for retrofitting)
FIELDLED EVO for recessed or surface mounting
VARILED II (compact, simple, powerful)

Woodworking machinery

Safe visibility despite dust and chips

Woodworking machines range from cutting and edge processing to CNC nesting and sanding. For consistent quality, clear visibility, robust components, and minimal maintenance are essential in dusty environments. 

Typical requirements: 
Dust/chips, vibration, low-shadow illumination, compact installation space, low maintenance, fast cleaning. “D marking”, especially in fire-hazardous operating areas. 

LED2WORK solution:
Homogeneous light for inspection and setup, robust machine luminaires for continuous operation, easy integration. 

Recommended luminaires:

TUBELED_40 II (robust, machine interior)
LEANLED II & LEANLED II Basic-Line (robust for the application, excellent value for money)
TUBELED_25 Standard or RGB-W (simultaneous lighting & signaling)

Plastic injection moulding machines

Clear visibility under heat, oil mist, and fumes

Injection moulding machines often operate 24/7—with frequent tool changes, sampling, and visual inspection directly at the machine and removal point. For consistent quality, reliable visibility, robust components, and minimal maintenance are essential despite thermal loads, hydraulic media, and process aids.

Typical requirements:
Heat/temperature zones (mould/hot runner), oil mist & hydraulic oil environments, fumes/emissions from plastics & additives, release agents/cleaners/degreasers (chemical exposure), low-shadow illumination for visual inspection (part surface/gate/flash), compact installation space, low maintenance, fast cleaning; safety-relevant machine environment according to DIN EN 201 (injection moulding machines).

LED2WORK solution:
Homogeneous, low-shadow lighting for part and tool inspection (sampling/setup), rugged industrial design for continuous operation, variants/interfaces for fast integration; chemical- and cleaning-resistant designs depending on the environment.

Recommended luminaires:

TUBELED_40 II and TUBELED_40 II Basic-Line (robust, machine interior/oil environment)
TUBELED_25 Standard or RGB-W (lighting + status/signaling in one luminaire)
CENALED Spot recessed, TOPLED surface-mounted (reliable, compact, and high-output)

Logistics & conveyor technology

Reliable lighting for automated material flows

In intralogistics and conveyor technology, automated conveyor lines, sorting systems, and transfer points ensure smooth material flow. For safe processes, error-free identification, and efficient maintenance, uniform, glare-free lighting is essential—for both personnel and camera-based systems.

Typical requirements:
Continuous operation with high cycle rates, long system lengths, vibrations from conveyor technology, dust exposure, safe illumination of transfer points, glare-free lighting conditions for personnel and camera systems, flicker-free light quality, low-maintenance solutions.

LED2WORK solution:
High-performance machine luminaires for long conveyor lines, homogeneous illumination of transfer and inspection areas, installation-friendly variants for mounting and integration, robust design for 24/7 operation, long-lasting LED technology to minimize downtime.

Recommended luminaires:

TUBELED_25 RGB-W & IO-Link (smart status signaling directly on conveyor and sorting systems)
SIGNALED II RGB/W (clear, highly visible machine and process statuses at a glance)
DOMELED 50 / 90 Analog (clear visual status indication for machine and process states)
DOMELED 50 / 90 IO-Link (intelligent status feedback with direct connection to the control system)
TUBELED_70 EVO (high-performance for large conveyor systems and transfer points)
