  • OVER MOULDED LED MODULE WITH INTEGRATED HEATSINK AND OPTIC
    Publication number: 20260132906
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a light emitting diode (LED) headlight unit that includes an integrally molded heat sink, LED module, and optics component. The method of manufacturing includes injection molding the heat sink that incorporates the LED module in a first injection molding step and then forming the optics component on the top surface of the heatsink in a second injection molding step. In an alternative method of manufacturing the LED headlight unit with the integrally molded heat sink, LED module, and optics component, the optics component is molded first, and the heat sink is molded onto the bottom surface of the optics component, thereby integrating the LED module into the heat sink.
