Jamcor/SJS Products designs and manufactures custom optical components, including LED light pipes, LCD light pipes, light guides, and optical light conduits for use in electronic systems, user interfaces, and other complex assemblies. These precision-engineered components transmit light from an internal LED source to external display surfaces, improving visibility, performance, and flexibility in the design of the larger system or assembly. While these components can be supplied individually, Jamcor frequently integrates custom LED and LCD light pipes into its in-house multi-process manufacturing. By combining our LED and LCD light pipe manufacturing services with injection molding, machining, and assembly, we can deliver complete solutions that provide optimized performance with efficient production and cost-effective pricing.
LED light pipes are transparent optical components used within electronic assemblies to transfer light from an internally mounted LED light source to a visible location on the exterior of a device. Jamcor/SJS Products manufactures a wide range of optoelectronic light pipe configurations, including straight/rigid light pipes, curved pipes, flexible pipes for complex routing, frosted or textured options, and colored or jacketed configurations. LED light pipes are most frequently used as part of on/off indication systems, system status alerts, diagnostic warnings, and alarm signals. Our engineering team is available to assist with technical optimizations for LED light pipe applications and can ensure they deliver the clear and consistent visual feedback desired.
Light guides are a specialized variant of light pipes that are designed to distribute light more evenly across a wider surface or area. Rather than simply transmitting light from point A to point B, Jamcor light guides are precision-engineered to control the spread, diffusion, and presentation of light. Light guides are recommended for applications where uniform illumination is required, multiple LEDs are combined into a singular output, or instances where surface-level lighting enhances system usability or aesthetic appearances. Jamcor has manufactured complex light guides for backlit displays, control panels, user interfaces, and other consumer electronics, or even medical devices. With Jamcor’s capabilities for advanced texturing and geometry designs, we can achieve specific brightness levels, diffusion patterns, and visual effects demanded by modern electronic assemblies.
Optical light conduits are required in complex electronic assemblies where a more intricate light transmission path is required and demands precise routing through constrained or multi-component assemblies. Optical light conduits are ideal for any application where light must travel longer distances, internal complications require a non-linear routing path, or space constraints demand compact solutions. Our engineering team has worked with customers to develop optical light conduits for telecommunications, data center, industrial systems, and high-density electronic assembly applications. By tightly controlling the light direction and minimizing signal loss, these optical light conduit solutions ensure reliable performance in challenging design conditions.
Light pipes transmit light directly from one point to another, light guides distribute light across a larger surface area, and optical conduits route light through more complex or obstructed pathways within the larger assembly.
Our light pipes and conduits are manufactured from optical-grade plastics such as polycarbonate, which is selected for its tremendous clarity, durability, and efficient light transmission properties.
Throughout our history, we’ve developed optoelectronic light guide solutions for customers in the telecommunications, data center, medical device, consumer electronics, and industrial system sectors.
Our customization options include the variations in shape (fixed/flexible/curved), length, diameter, and specific geometry. Additional customization features include frosting, texturing, light diffusion control, color tinting, and precision light direction to ensure proper brightness levels and visibility within the final product.
