High power UV flashlight

Introducing the High Power UV Flashlight!

Our UV flashlight is equipped with highly intense light radiation for use in finding particles in during the production process for semiconductors or displays, or for discovering fingerprints, bodily fluids, or blood stains at crime scenes. In addition, it can be used very effectively as a handy curing device for curing in a variety of industrial fields. It may also be used for special lighting entertainment, ad displays, and on stages.


Have you confirmed the power of UV flashlight?

Instead of printing photos on plain white paper, print them using UV ink to make sure nothing is visible under natural light. This enables the verification of the contents only under ultraviolet light.


Our UV LED detector MP12t allows for this kind of image when viewed under ultraviolet.

However, an even clearer and wider image is visible under an UV flashlight.

The products can be produced with a customized UV LED wavelength depending on the task required.

MP12t detects forged casino chips

Casino chips have the same value as cash inside a casino. Thus, they are frequently a main target of forgers and criminals. Although casino operators have expended a lot of effort to detect forged casino chips, it is currently difficult to detect forged chips with 100% accuracy.

It is no easy task to detect forged casino chips with the naked eye. Therefore, casino chips use fluorescent security features for enhanced security, similar to cash, checks, and ID cards. Our company's MP12t makes it easy to verify the fluorescent security features of casino chips. Many casinos around the world currently use the MP12t.

Below are photos of a variety of chips produced by different manufacturers. Under the UV light of the MP12t, text invisible under natural light appears or certain parts of the chip change color. If the fluorescent security features do not appear under UV light or their position, shape, torm, or ccolor is different, it is possible that the chip may be forged.

When the MP12t is used, it is possible to protect yourself from losses arising from forged chips. The MP12t is a very convenient device that allows you to use a single device to analyze not only casino chips, but also cash exchange vouchers issued within casinos, money bills, checks, and ID cards.

Fluorescent security factors in the Thai baht

The 50-baht and 1000-baht donominations of Thai baht are typically targeted for forgery. In March 2013, in the southern Nakonsi Thammarat region, a woman in her twenties was caught using a scanner to copy bills via a computer before editing them to print. In August 2010, in the northern Ubun Ratchathani region, three university students who produced 4.7 million baht of forget bills were arrested.

Let's look at the main fluorescent security features used in the Thai baht.

The importance of product choice

Ultraviolet wavelengths can be divided into UVA(320~400nm), UVB(280~320nm), UVC(100~280nm). The wavelengths capable of verifying forgeries are UVA wavelengths.

When purchasing a UV LED Detector, it is important to double check the UV LED’s quality. The results can be significantly affected depending on which UV LEDs are used.

One of the following currency bills is a forgery. Can you tell which bill is a forgery? As you can see, the quality of the paper and printing conditions are very similar, making it is impossible to distinguish which bill is forged using the naked eye. How will the two bills change when viewed under ultraviolet light to uncover which one is forged?


1) Low-price UV LED Detector(test product made by us for research purposes)

The currency bill was verified using the low-price UV LED Detector. Fluorescent security features are visible in identical spots on the front of the bill. Except for the fact that the top bill has slightly blurry security features, it is almost impossible to distinguish which bill is a forgery.

2) MP12t

The currency bill was verified using our MP12t product. Although fluorescent security features are visible in identical spots on the front of the bill, they are of a different color. The fluorescent security fibers on the bottom bill are clearly visible whereas the one on the top is not visible at all. The top bill is a forgery.

It is possible to verify the existence of security features using the low-price UV LED Detector. However, they should not be used to determine is a currency bill is real or forged based on the mere fact that security features exist. Using machines that cannot distinguish between the colors of fluorescent security features or detect the existence of color fibers poses as risk and makes them extremely suitable for use when identifying forgeries. Which product would you select?
