In LED lighting<\/strong>, temperature control is essential to ensure luminous efficiency, durability, and safety<\/strong> of the system. An example of excellence comes from Artemide<\/strong>, in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz Style<\/strong>, for the creation of the Ameluna<\/strong> lamp: an icon of contemporary design that combines aesthetics, technology, and sustainability<\/strong>. The Ameluna<\/strong> lamp (a fusion of Artemide, Mercedes, and Luna<\/em>) represents a new frontier in smart lighting<\/strong>. This ring, a fundamental part of the optical and mechanical system, is made from a thermally conductive and flame-retardant compound<\/strong> developed by LATI Industria Termoplastici S.p.A.<\/strong>, specifically formulated to ensure high performance in designer LED applications<\/strong>.<\/p>\n To meet the strict technical specifications of the project, Artemide adopted LATICONTHER 62 CEG\/500-V0HF1<\/strong>, a PA6-based compound<\/strong> with isotropic ceramic fillers<\/strong> for high thermal conductivity.<\/p>\n Thanks to these characteristics, the material ensures long-term reliability<\/strong> and high mechanical strength<\/strong>, enabling production in a single monolithic piece<\/strong> \u2014 a significant challenge considering the component’s size and complexity.<\/p>\n The Ameluna project required intensive co-design<\/strong> activity between Artemide and LATI technicians, who supported the development phase through: <\/p>\n These activities enabled validation of the component’s geometric stability<\/strong>, ensuring efficient heat dissipation<\/strong> and perfect aesthetic-functional compatibility<\/strong> with the transparent dome.<\/p>\n
\nLED thermal management requires materials with high thermal conductivity<\/strong>, capable of dissipating heat uniformly while maintaining dimensional stability and aesthetic value<\/strong> of the product.<\/p>\n
\nFor this project, Artemide chose a LATI thermally conductive compound<\/strong>, capable of simultaneously meeting structural, thermal, and environmental<\/strong> requirements.<\/p>\nAmeluna: Design, Light, and Integrated Technology<\/h2>\n
\nThe transparent PMMA dome, with asymmetrical and futuristic lines, reflects and diffuses light generated by a series of high-efficiency LEDs<\/strong> integrated into a suspended circular ring<\/strong> that serves as both structural support and heat sink.<\/p>\nThe Material: LATICONTHER 62 CEG\/500-V0hf1<\/h2>\n
