New senior engineer at Unilux

Arthur Mario has joined the engineering department at Unilux as a senior engineer. He will report to Matt Runo, director of engineering and concentrate initially on redesigning the next generation of Unilux LED stroboscopic inspection lights.

‘Our next generation of LED strobes will incorporate brighter lights and improved reflector design to deliver more light at the same price as our existing lights,’ Runo said. ‘Arthur Mario's experience in concentrating light is ideally suited to maximizing our systems' light output, and he will be able to help us adapt a set of components throughout our LED line to lower our production costs and our customers' operating costs for the lights.’

Mario joins Unilux after 17 years at Autoclear USA, where he was principal inventor of a lossless tomographic X-ray imaging technology for baggage inspection. During that time, he chaired the committee on F12.60 for the American Society of Testing and Materials, which developed standards for equipment for controlled access security screening.

‘Unilux impressed me as a growing company with a great deal of vitality,’ Mario said. ‘We are pushing our technology into new design territory, and I am pleased to be part of this innovative team.’

The softer light of Unilux LED stroboscopic inspection lights allow inspectors at printing, converting and metals processing plants to view highly reflective surfaces with less glare and fatigue. Rectangular LED arrays provide more uniform light without hotspots across a web or strip, and lights can be connected as modules to extend across any width. LED strobe lights can continue to provide enough light for effective inspection even if diodes burn out during a production run.
