Artafex Linear

DMF Lighting’s Artafex Linear series is designed to provide integrators with a simple, yet robust solution that meets the ever-growing demand for linear lighting in residential applications. Unlike the traditional alternative, which often requires complex installation and time-consuming soldering, Artafex Linear offers a streamlined, easy-to-install system with magnetic connectors, removing the need for field cutting and reducing installation time. This modular system allows for the flexibility to make adjustments on-site without compromising performance.

DMF Lighting Artifax Linear

DMF Lighting’s Artafex Linear key features include:

  • Modular Design: Available in 1-foot, 2-inch, and 1-inch increments, allowing for easy customization and installation. The magnetic connectors snap seamlessly into place, ensuring reliable connections and a smooth, continuous lighting effect without gaps.
  • Premium Build: The fixture is designed with a premium soft-touch silicone lens that prevents dust buildup, making it ideal for residential environments. The lens, combined with a dense array of highly efficient LEDs, provides high efficacy with dot-free performance, eliminating the compromises found in other products.
  • Superior Warm Dim Matching: Artafex Linear features a Warm Dim option that matches DMF Lighting’s popular Warm Dim downlight color temperature curve, ensuring consistent lighting across various fixtures in a home. It can also be set at 2000K, 2700K, and 3000K for those preferring a static color temperature.
  • Simplified Ordering Process: The Artafex Linear product line was designed with the integrator in mind, providing an ordering process that is both flexible and user-friendly. Whether an integrator is a beginner in lighting or an experienced professional, the ordering system adapts to their level of knowledge and project requirements. The three ways to order include:
    • Order by Total Footage: Ideal for projects where quick estimates are needed, integrators can simply input the total linear footage required for the project and choose the preferred mounting type — flat or 45-degree. The system automatically generates a complete bill of materials (BOM), including the appropriate number of fixtures, connectors, drivers, and other essential components.
    • Order by Zone: For more complex projects where multiple control zones are required, integrators can specify the length and mounting type for each zone, such as kitchen under-cabinet lighting or living room cove lighting. The system creates a separate BOM for each zone, helping to label and organize components by specific areas within the project, ensuring that the right materials are deployed to the right locations.
    • Order by Individual Components: For integrators who prefer to build their own configurations or need specific parts, this option allows them to manually select the exact components required for their projects. This method is ideal for advanced users who want precise control over their inventory.

Artafex Linear Kit for Faster Installations

One of the standout features of the Artafex Linear product line is the Artafex Linear Kit, which simplifies installation and reduces job site complications. Each kit comes packed in a specially designed tray box and includes:

  • 10 x 12-inch linear fixtures
  • 4 x 2-inch linear sections
  • 1 x 1-inch linear section
  • A selection of joiners, dead ends, power feeds, and jumpers

By including a variety of linear lengths and connection accessories, the kit covers a wide range of installation scenarios, allowing integrators to adapt quickly to changes in the field. The kit’s modular nature ensures faster, easier installations without compromising on performance or aesthetics.

Artafex Linear is designed to serve a variety of lighting applications, including under-cabinet lighting in kitchens, ambient cove lighting in living rooms, and task lighting in home offices. Its sleek profile and modular configuration allows it to seamlessly integrate into architectural features, providing high-quality, even illumination without the complications of traditional linear lighting. Whether used for accent lighting or to create sophisticated scenes throughout the home, Artafex Linear offers exceptional versatility, making it a top choice for integrators working on projects of any scale.

Integrators have long faced challenges with LED tape, from confusing specification processes to unreliable connectors and field soldering that requires extensive training. Artafex Linear eliminates these issues by offering a plug-and-play solution that is as easy to install as it is to maintain. Additionally, DMF Lighting’s open architecture design allows integrators to seamlessly integrate Artafex Linear with the control systems they’re already familiar with, providing flexibility and compatibility with most popular platforms.
