Magnetic Tracks and Connectors
The functionality of a magnetic system starts with a perfect foundation. Magnetic tracks and connectors (48V) form the "bloodstream" of your interior. The biggest mistake in the search for cheap solutions is choosing plastic tracks that deform over time or fail to stably hold heavy luminaires. VIDEX offers industrially manufactured extruded aluminum tracks designed for three mounting types: surface-mounted, suspended, and - most popular - fully recessed (Drywall), creating a seamless "line of light" in the ceiling.
Infrastructure reliability and TCO benefits:
- Flawless copper conductors: For a 48V system, it is critical that there is no voltage drop at the connection points. Our L-shaped, T-shaped, and linear connectors guarantee stable current flow along the entire length of the track.
- Mechanical strength: The thick aluminum body ensures that the track will not bend even if you hang several massive LED spotlights or pendant lamps on it.
- Safe power supply: By choosing the appropriate power supply units, you eliminate overheating risks and guarantee the system's sustainability for decades.
In conclusion, do not compromise on your home's architecture. Professional magnetic tracks from VIDEX will guarantee that your luminaires hold firmly and the system is 100% safe. Choose the profiles needed for your project below!
Q: How is power supply handled in magnetic tracks when creating long and closed lines?
Q: What are the differences between surface-mounted, suspended, and recessed magnetic tracks?
Q: What material profiles are used in the load-bearing structure of magnetic tracks?
Q: Can the magnetic track profile be physically sawed to fit the dimensions of the object?
Q: How to calculate the required 48V power supply (AC/DC) capacity for the created system?
A: VIDEX Current is supplied through an end or middle 48V power terminal that inserts directly into the profile. When connecting multiple track segments, linear I-type and L-type corner connectors are used, continuing the uninterrupted 48V contact flow between segments without pulling external cables.
Q: What are the differences between surface-mounted, suspended, and recessed magnetic tracks?
A: Surface-mounted tracks are screwed directly to the concrete ceiling, suspended ones are fixed on cables above office desks, and recessed ones are built into drywall under the putty. Recessed profiles create an absolutely flat ceiling architecture, leaving only a precise 20 mm black niche visible for the luminaires.
Q: What material profiles are used in the load-bearing structure of magnetic tracks?
A: The track housing is extruded from anodized aluminum, guaranteeing the system's geometric rigidity and dissipating the diodes' operating heat. Inside the profile, there is a ferromagnetic steel strip for fixation, as well as 48V copper conductors for voltage transmission along the entire length of the track.
Q: Can the magnetic track profile be physically sawed to fit the dimensions of the object?
A: Yes, extruded aluminum profiles can be accurately cut to the required length using a hacksaw. Since this is a 48V system, an exposed cut does not pose a fatal hazard; however, for insulation and aesthetic purposes, the end of the profile must strictly be closed with an appropriate plastic end cap.
Q: How to calculate the required 48V power supply (AC/DC) capacity for the created system?
A: The engineering standard requires summing up the wattage (W) of all planned magnetic luminaires and strictly adding a 20% safety margin. If there is a 100W total load on the track, a transformer with at least 120W output power must be used for stable and non-overheating system operation.
