What is LED signage – types, advantages and disadvantages of LED signs

What is the LED signage?

LED signages are a relatively large concept. In specific usage scenarios, we need to decide what kind of LED signs to use according to the actual needs of the scene. Normally, LED signages are mainly made of metal materials or acrylic materials. The light beam is emitted under the action of the LED light source, so that the overall luminous sign looks more attractive.

Types of LED signages available on the market

So what are the characteristics of different types of LED signs? Fog lighting will tell you the characters of the 14 common LED signs in the market:

1. LED resin signs (liquid signs)

The sign body is poured with unsaturated resin, while resin, galvanized sheet, stainless steel, etc. can be used for the shell, and LED lights are installed inside. It has good airtightness, and the color can be adjusted according to specified needs. Can be used to make some special luminous effects, such as: white in black, red in black, gold, silver and so on.

Advantages of LED resin signs: good light transmittance, more complicated production, solid performance and better waterproof performance, and small signs can also be made.

2. Flat luminous LED signs

The front and side are at right angles, and the front is illuminated. Use light-transmitting 3mm acrylic to make the front of the sign, and use the engraving process to shape the text. The front corners of the word are flat and right-angled. The edges are surrounded by iron paint. The bottom is made of iron paint. The general thickness is 7mm. LED lamp is installed in the upper position. The color of LED chips can be changed according to customer requirements or different colors can be selected to match the color of the sign body.

3. Acrylic blister 3d LED signs

The acrylic surrounds are illuminated on three sides. Use light-transmitting 3mm acrylic to make the front of the sign, and use the engraving process to shape the text. The front corners of the word are flat and right-angled, and the light-transmitting 3mm thick acrylic material is used for the surrounding edges. LED lamp is installed in the upper position, the color of the LED chips can be changed according to customer requirements or different colors can be selected according to the color of the sign body.

4. Acrylic blister front luminous LED signs

The sides are painted with lacquer, and the front is luminous. Use light-transmitting 3mm acrylic to make the front of the signs, and use the engraving process to shape the text. The front corners of the word are flat and right-angled. The surrounding edges are made of iron sheet paint. The base is made of iron sheet paint. The general thickness is 7mm. LED lamp is installed in the upper position, color of the LED chips can be changed according to customer requirements or different colors can be selected to match the color of the signage body.

5. Combination LED signs

Use transparent 3mm acrylic for the front of the signs (flat engraving or blister), use iron sheet or acrylic material for the periphery, iron sheet or snowboard as the bottom, generally 7mm in thickness, LED lamp is installed in the upper position, the color of the LED chips varies according to customer requirements, or choose different colors to match the color of the sign body.

6. LED acrylic flat luminous signs

The surface is made of acrylic sheet, the side can be made of acrylic, galvanized sheet, stainless steel, titanium, etc., and the bottom shell is made of PVC, galvanized sheet, stainless steel. With the built-in LED chips, its price is different according to its material and material brand. In addition, the installation environment also affects its price.

Advantages: good light transmittance, simple production process, and short lead time.

7. LED acrylic blister LED signs

The sign body is made of acrylic and is formed by blister molding. The sides can be made of acrylic, galvanized sheet, stainless steel, titanium, etc., and the bottom shell is made of PVC, galvanized sheet, stainless steel. Built-in LED lights, the thickness of the material, the brand of the material, the amount of blister, and the installation environment all affect its price.

Advantages: good light transmittance, more complicated production, durable, long lead time, suitable for large-scale projects.

8. Full body luminous LED signs

Three-sided flat acrylic luminous LED signs: The front and sides are flat, and all three sides are illuminated. Use light-transmitting 3mm acrylic to make the front of the signs, and use the engraving process to shape the text. The front corners of the word are flat and right-angled, and the light-transmitting 3mm thick acrylic material is used for the periphery. LED chips in the upper position, the color of the LED chips can be changed according to customer requirements or different colors can be selected according to the color of the sign body.

9. LED exposed luminous LED signs

The sign body is made of acrylic, aluminum-plastic plate, galvanized plate, stainless steel, titanium, etc. The lamp hole is cut by laser or plasma. The light source is available in F5, F8, F9, F12 and other specifications. The material, spacing density, stroke size, and difficulty of installation affect the overall effect of the signs.

Advantages: good water resistance, high brightness, long viewing distance, energy saving and safety, easy to maintain and repair, and long life.

10. LED colorful signs

The sign body is made of acrylic plate or blister, the side is made of acrylic, galvanized sheet, stainless steel, titanium, etc., and the bottom shell is made of PVC, galvanized sheet, stainless steel. The built-in LED colorful lights can change seven colors from one color to another.

11. LED acrylic flat luminous signs

The sign body is made of acrylic, and the side can be made of acrylic, PVC, galvanized sheet, stainless steel, titanium, etc., the bottom shell is made of PVC, galvanized sheet, stainless steel, and LED lights are installed inside. The price is different depending on the material.

12. LED full-color luminous signs

Full-color luminous signs can be divided into acrylic internal luminous LED signs and LED exposed full-color luminous signs. The full-color is spot-controlled, and can realize flow, chase, jump, gradual, scan, diffuse, pull the screen, open, etc. effect.

13. LED signs with special craftsmanship

Black to white LED signs, blue to white luminous LED signs, resin casting and acrylic panels in the craft, such as: Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Bank of China, China Mobile, etc.

14. Back lit LED signs

Most of them stainless steel back lit LED signages, stainless steel as the frame, built-in LED chips, and back lit. There are flat and three-dimensional panels, and the three-dimensional back lit LED sign production process is complicated, so the price is higher.
