WHATISALIGHTINGBRACKET?
A lighting bracket is an device that is used for holding anelectric bulb, or a tube light, and reflect the light according to
the requirement.
Examples include : Wall lamps tube light holders, table lamps,street lights, front and rear lights in automobiles,, etc.
Can also be used as ornamental objects for fashion anddecoration.

MATERIALSUSEDINTHEMANUFACTURING
Materials used depend upon the purpose, buyer, and theuse to which the bracket is to be put.
In olden periods, china clay and paper were used tomake lighting brackets, and instead of electric bulbs,candles, fire lamps etc. were used
Nowadays, chiefly metals, fiber plastics and glass areused.

MAIN BODY
A cylindrical body, with a long groove along the length ,from where the light from the bulb comes out.
Made using thin metal sheets, which are generally boughtfrom an outside supplier.
The material used is highly heat resistant.
Plate Bending Rollsare used to convert thin metallicsheets into a cylinder of desired diameter.
Outer part is polished to give an aesthetic look.

REFLECTIVECOATING
Reflective coating on the inside of the main body isdone through:
Powder Coating
Painting
Polishing
Out of these, powder coating is mostly used.

POWDER COATING
Advanced technology for industrial application ofpaints on metal.
Gives More attractive finish.
Process
Surface pre-treatment
Coating with dry powder
Heating for 10 minutes at around 2000 C
50-200 micron coating is obtained.
Powder coatings can produce much thicker coatings thanconventional liquid coatings without running or sagging.

ADVANTAGESOFPOWDERCOATINGOVEROTHERCOATINGS.
High Impact Resistance
Eliminates chipping or scratching
Longer life than paint
Flexibility - can bend without cracking Uniform control of finish
Eliminates sags and runs
Mil thickness of 1 to 3
Powder finishes are more durable than wet paint
Environmentally Friendly
Resistant to heat, corrosion, impact, andabrasion

WALLCLAMPER
The design is chosen according to the weight of thecomplete assembly(including the bulb).
Thin metal sheets are used.
Sheets are given the desired shape using platebending machine.
Contains all the important electric components(like.Electric wires, fuse, etc.).
