Throughout the down their biggest common advantage is nothing more than light, thin, easy to install. This is a future development trend, and it is clear that the “iron box” is no longer adapt to this trend, the future is better to be replaced by new materials is destined. But it really be cleared out of the market needs a long and continuous process, so for the time being it also has the advantages of low cost, short production cycle (which is exactly where the new materials need to break through), will not be completely discarded by the market for the time being.

9. How to test the LED screen body
Coating adhesion: there should not be any shedding phenomenon.

Screen screen: whether the colour consistency, or the phenomenon of off-colour, or even the phenomenon of not bright.

Screen printing appearance: screen printing content should be clear, complete, uniform colour, no burrs, defects, trailing, pollution; all the specific content of the screen printing, location, pattern and font size, described in detail by the corresponding drawings, manufacturers strictly according to the drawings design requirements of screen printing.

Colour and sample compatible (normal vision in natural light or fluorescent light observation without obvious colour difference), no colour difference with the same batch of products (Note: colour difference including colour and gloss); coating surface smooth, flat, even, the surface shall not have the following defects: not dry back to sticky, particles, leakage of the bottom, pockmarks, hair flower, wrinkles, mechanical damage.

First of all there are many methods of cabinet testing, generally will use the tools are: vernier calipers, tape measure, level. cabinet testing requirements: inspectors must be strictly in accordance with the designers drawings of cabinet incoming materials one by one inspection, check whether there is less, leakage of processed parts, cabinet testing should pay attention to the following issues:

LED cabinet external dimensions deviation is not greater than 0.5mm, the difference between the two diagonals is not greater than 1mm.
Check whether the burr is removed, whether the sharp angle is chamfered blunt, not allowed to have scraping and stabbing phenomenon.
Each nut and nut post must be processed by back teeth to ensure that the screws can be locked in smoothly.

Inspection LED cabinet overall assembly requirements according to the drawings of the actual processing, each accessory (such as locks, hinges) must be used in the existing standard parts, assembly must ensure its mechanical strength and sealing performance.

Cabinet each weld must be firmly welded, no false welding, leakage welding and other phenomena, the weld must be ground flat, the weld needs to be done at the scraping grey treatment, the processing technology must be strict standards. Welded seams must be polished sealing waterproof, smooth and flat without sharp corners.

10. Price of LED display cabinet?

The price of iron cabinet is cheaper, but the customized cabinet for shaped LED display is more expensive, because the process is more complicated than the regular iron cabinet, which leads to higher labour cost. General outdoor waterproof iron cabinet price is 100USD / square, if it is aluminium outdoor waterproof cabinet price is about 130USD / square. The price of general indoor iron cabinet is 60USD/square.

The price of axial aluminium cabinet is usually 200USD/square, axial aluminium cabinet is usually more for stage rental and indoor small pitch application. Here I only introduce the price of this mainstream LED display cabinet. If you want to know more, you can contact LEGIDATECH.

11. LED display cabinet Production lead time?

We will design the right size of LED cabinet according to the area of the LED display.We will design the cabinet drawings and then give them to the cabinet supplier for customised production.The production lead time for cabinet manufacturers is usually 15 days.

12.LED display cabinet packaging.

Outdoor solid LED cabinet and indoor solid cabinet, we generally use wooden box packaging. The advantage of using wooden box packaging is to prevent cabinet deformation.
Stage rental LED cabinet we usually use the air box with wheels, which is conducive to the LED display handling and installation. Bit customers to save a lot of labour costs, save LED display cabinet splicing time.

13.LED display cabinet case show

Let me introduce a few recent cases of LEGIDATECH.

The first one is the outdoor advertising screen installed in Liberia on September 15th. Two 3*2m de screens. This is a 500*1000mm rental movable screen cabinet, which is easier to install than traditional outdoor advertising screens, and is also very bright and waterproof. This case uses an outdoor P4.81Magic series screen, which is LEHGIDATECH’s best never-go-black screen. It will not affect the operation of the entire screen due to damage to a certain power supply.

We use die-cast aluminum material for the cabinet. As mentioned above, die-cast aluminum cabinet is the best cabinet material currently on the market.

 

The second case is a small pitch EDI series P1.876 installed by our team in a conference room in South Africa. We set up an office in South Africa, and our local partners only helped us with the structure and door-to-door installation.

This is a high-end product. Although the cabinet is small, the spacing is very small and the display effect is very clear. Because it is a product suitable for permanent installation, the test is seamless splicing and its durability, so its cabinet is also made of higher-quality die-cast aluminum.

 

The size of the advertising screen for Nigerian hospitals is 2.88*21.92m, and the screen used is B series, 960mm*960mm, which is high-brightness and waterproof.

The box is made of thinner aluminum-magnesium alloy, which is 20 kilograms lighter than an ordinary iron box, making it easier to install and maintain. Moreover, it dissipates heat well, is more corrosion-resistant and more environmentally friendly.

Conclusion:
As outdoor solid mounted LED display is becoming more and more widely favoured by customers, their product needs have also changed, and they are more inclined to choose products that can satisfy their more diversified and personalized needs when choosing products. Like the LED display cabinet alternative materials research and development, although there have been so many new materials, but the industry is still a lot of people continue to explore other higher reliability, higher cost-effective new cabinet materials.
