Explore our tier-one OEM components engineering robust electrical stability, wireless telemetry, and high-intensity solid-state illumination.
Translating complex optical designs into resilient engineering realities for global aftermarkets and OEM assemblies.
Established in 2012, Ningbo DERT Lighting Co., Ltd. has developed into a premium-tier, vertically integrated developer and manufacturer specializing in advanced automotive lighting systems, LED headlights, and specialized vehicle illumination architectures. Nestled in the dynamic industrial hub of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, China, our operations span a state-of-the-art 18,000 square meter facility. With a dedicated team of over 320 skilled professionals across electronic engineering, physical optical design, thermal dynamics, quality assurance, and international trade, we consistently deliver high-performance solutions engineered to survive the most demanding automotive and industrial applications worldwide.
Our operational philosophy is built on absolute precision and regulatory compliance. Modern vehicles demand more than basic luminance; they require integrated electro-optical safety systems that minimize heat signatures, resist electromagnetic interference, and maximize light efficiency. By maintaining comprehensive engineering control, we help our partners optimize vehicle design, streamline supply chain sourcing, and navigate strict international standards.
Addressing total cost of ownership (TCO), supply chain reliability, and material traceability for global procurement managers.
By engineering high-efficiency drivers and robust thermal management systems, our products drastically reduce field failures. This decreases maintenance intervals and downtime for commercial fleets and industrial equipment, translating to lower Total Cost of Ownership.
Located near the deep-water Ningbo-Zhoushan port, DERT Lighting provides optimized logistics and freight management. We secure raw material pipelines for copper, aluminum alloys, and high-performance semiconductors to prevent disruption of your manufacturing timeline.
We streamline international regulatory approvals by designing products that meet ECE (E-Mark), DOT (US), CE, RoHS, and FCC specifications, reducing import risks and accelerating speed-to-market for regional distributors.
Adapting to the shifts in commercial shipping, industrial heavy-duty machinery, and off-road safety systems.
The global transportation landscape is undergoing massive transformations driven by electrification and automation. For commercial transit fleets, heavy-duty mining trucks, and agricultural equipment, lighting systems are no longer passive add-ons. They are active safety sensors and signal beacons. Highly engineered optical lenses, like the F30 78W Adaptive Projector Lens Kit, allow vehicles to automatically focus light on potential road hazards while preventing glare for oncoming traffic.
In industrial and fleet applications, auxiliary lights face harsh operating environments. Heavy machinery in mining, construction, and logging projects experiences constant vibration, extreme temperatures, and moisture. Our specialized heavy-duty work lights—engineered with wide voltage ranges (9-80V DC) and advanced anti-vibration mounting systems—ensure continuous illumination. Additionally, commercial vehicles require high-fidelity recording systems. Integrating Wide Angle Dome AHD cameras with high-sensitivity microphones into transport fleets enhances fleet safety, visibility, and legal liability management.
An engineering deep-dive into how we maintain high power outputs without compromising diode lifespan.
High-power LED headlight systems (ranging from 140W to 160W) generate substantial heat at the junction point. Standard convective cooling is often insufficient, leading to color shift and fast output degradation. To address this, our engineers developed a dual and quad-copper tube cooling structure. These heat pipes utilize phase change processes to transfer thermal energy away from the LED core to the aluminum heat sink, keeping diode temperatures within safe limits.
Modern consumers expect customized aesthetics. Our smart RGBW systems utilize Bluetooth and Wi-Fi App integration to allow users to configure custom daytime running light (DRL) animations and color spectra. This configuration uses digital controllers and transient voltage suppressors (TVS) to prevent high-voltage spikes from damaging sensitive chips.
Off-grid and agricultural applications rely heavily on solar integration. Our clean energy systems combine high-efficiency solar panels, intelligent charging controllers, and low-draw LED bulbs to deliver reliable lighting without relying on regional grids.
From conceptual CAD modeling to precision final assembly—we turn custom requirements into market-ready products.
Every lighting design undergoes rigorous environmental and structural testing to ensure durability:
• Ingress Protection validation (IP66, IP67, IP68, and IP69K testing).
• High-amplitude vibration testing simulating millions of road cycles.
• Thermal shock tests, cycling between extreme high and low temperatures.
• Photometric profiling inside our integrating spheres.
We work closely with client engineering departments to create customized components:
• Initial Zemax optical simulation and heat sink design.
• Direct tooling development and sample fabrication.
• Automated production and surface-mount (SMT) component placement.
• Customized packaging, product labeling, and localized compliance documentation.
