Anatol LED Exposure unit
« on: July 29, 2014, 05:58:36 PM »
Anatol just introduced there new L.E.D exposure unit the Auroa, just saw a few pic's on there website, not a bad looking machine.  I'll have to see if any vids will pop up as they start to ship them out customers, I would love to have one of those units, but I just can't see me tossing the unit I have now, but if it goes out I'm all over it.  Price I think they start around 35 to 37 hundred for one that will expose one full auto screen.

The arrangement of the LED's in that pic on the link is interesting.  It looks to be for two small screens and not one large one, but I could be wrong.

That's almost what I told my sales guy last time he made his routine sales call to me.

Wish there would be actually more info about the actual LEDs used in that unit. How many for example would be a good starting point.Looking at this I feel rather drawn to the Vastex units or the Starlight from M&R.

If you blow the picture up, you can see the bulb arrangement better. It looks like there's a full field of small UV LED's and another grouping of a different lamps for non-exposure purposes.

Yeah, these old eyes kinda' saw maybe 32 rows of 50 LED's, about 1600 covering the entire area.

The spacing is interesting, wonder what the reasoning or theory is behind where they are? Nice you can store times in it for recall if you need to....

So this would go for all LED units, if we got one for our auto screens which are 25x36's is there a downside to exposing the manual 18x20's or whatever they are that we have on the same large unit?

With hundreds of LED's edge to edge, why would it matter?

I'm assuming that the many, many small bluish lights are the UV exposure bad-boys, and the few short rows of whiter, pinker lights have another purpose.
Maybe easier to see in this enlarged pic

Ahhhhhhhh you have pointed out my ignorance Frog, thanks:P I looked at it and assumed the pink lights were the exposure lights, not "auxiliary" or backlights...

There was a video of it on Anatol's Facebook page. Led spacing mimics the starlight. Control feature has a vacuum pressure sensor setting that it uses instead of  a vacuum countdown timer which is in my opinion a better method over the starlight. 1k cheaper than a starlight is also tempting.

I assure you this unit does not compare to the Starlight and our exclusive LED's. Make sure you get a money back guarantee if you buy it as well as a lifetime replacement on all the LED's even if one fails! Price isn't everything as a lot of people have found out.
