Abstract: Lightbox advertising has an important effect of beautifying the environment and is an indispensable infrastructure in urban construction. How much is a flat light box billboard? The size, materials and appearance of light box advertisements can affect the price of products. Take aluminum profile as an example. For a light box with a size of 111CM*111CM, the unit price of aluminum is about 1.21 yuan per square meter. The larger the light box, the lower the unit area cost of aluminum. Let's learn about the tutorial of making light box billboards. First, how much is the billboard for light boxes?
The production price of advertising light boxes depends on the materials and types of lights. The prices of different types of advertising light boxes are different. Let's take Kabu light box as an example for your reference.
1, aluminum profile
The color, thickness and length of various aluminum materials are different, and the price is different. The conventional ones are 8cm, silvery white and 1.1mm thick. Secondly, the different sizes of light boxes also affect the different prices of aluminum materials used in different sizes.
For example:
Light box A: 111 cm * 111 cm light box, the aluminum material is 4 meters, assuming that the aluminum material is about 31 yuan/meter, the cost is about 1.21 yuan, the light box area is 1 square meters, and the unit price of aluminum material is about 1.21 yuan.
light box b: 121cm * 241cm light box, the aluminum material is 7.2m, the cost is about 7.2*31=216 yuan, and the light box area is 2.88 square meters.
through comparison, it can be seen that the aluminum cost per square meter of light box A is about 1.21 yuan, and the aluminum cost per square meter of light box B is only about 75 yuan, so the quotation of light box can't be simply calculated and priced by how much it costs per square meter.
note: the larger the light box, the lower the unit area cost of aluminum.
2. Light box backlight
There are great differences in workmanship and brand prices for different backlight prices. The power of 2835 pull-cloth light bars of common manufacturers is 1.2W, and that of 5731 pull-cloth light bars is about 1.5w.. In addition, there are aluminum cloth strips, waterproof cloth strips and diffuse reflection cloth strips, and the prices are different.
in addition to the different price of led light box backlight itself, the different spacing of light bars will also affect the cost of backlight, which is known through the online calculation tool of LED light bar consumption of cloth-drawing light box.
when the spacing is 8CM, you need 11 backlights per square. When the spacing is 11, only 9 pieces are needed per square.
note: the greater the backlight spacing of the light box, the lower the cost.
2. Tutorial for making light box billboards
1. Materials for making outdoor billboards:
The flexible light box fabric, which is the base material of the light box, is mainly made of PVC surface layer of warp and weft yarns, which is suitable for making outdoor light boxes for various purposes. Its indicators are different, and the price is different. When selecting it, we should grasp the specific functions and fully consider the applicability of each indicator.
for example, the PC material used for thermoforming is suitable for outdoor light boxes, and it is an essential material for high-grade light boxes with impact resistance and high temperature resistance. Trough-shaped materials are special aluminum side plates imported from the United States, with 15 colors and 3 specifications. They are suitable for all kinds of fonts and can have built-in light sources. In addition, luminous materials at night, such as fluorescent paste and cold light film, have also been used in the market.
2, outdoor billboard production process:
(1) thermal transfer technology: outdoor billboards are made by adding solid ink to flexible light box cloth for hot pressing, which is as eye-catching and gorgeous as day and night, and can replace adhesive stickers. The protective light film is added to the surface layer, which has the characteristics of anti-ultraviolet and automatic removal of accumulated pollution. Thermal transfer technology is an ideal technical means for outdoor light boxes, especially suitable for dealing with fonts and cartoon patterns, and the shelf life can reach 5-8 years.
(2) Light box fabric tightening system and profile light box technology: it can make the light box firm, flat and overall durable, and can resist the wind of 111KM/ h..
(3) light box cloth seam: high-frequency and high-pressure hot seam, using special welding tape and special seam tape, is an auxiliary technical means to deal with light box pictures.
(4) computer inkjet printing: it is widely used to process outdoor light box pictures with the resolution of 9, 12, 36, 72, DPI, etc., which is suitable for outdoor light boxes with a width of less than 5M, different positions and different distances. Recently, foreign high-definition large-scale inkjet printing equipment entering the China market are: 241DPI, 361DPI, and 5 meters in width.
(5) computer photo: the definition is more than 241DPI, which is suitable for making indoor and outdoor close-range advertisements and warning signs beside ATM machines in banks.
(6) thermoforming process: it is suitable for PVC, PC, organic board and other materials, which can make signs, characters and graphics have multiple colors and be molded at one time. It is one of the forms of modern popular light boxes.
(7) groove type technology: it is a contemporary high-grade font production technology, which is a new generation product that replaces copper type and iron type with professional equipment and fine production.
(8) computer carving light box technology: it can be built-in lighting, external computer carving, and the profile light is uniform, which is a new product of light box.
(9) Various computer engraving techniques: suitable for making various signs and fonts.
3. Key points of operation technology:
(1) Lightbox design: Design the size, color matching, changes in advertising language arrangement and how to place the lightbox according to the design requirements of advertising lightboxes required by customers. Also according to the installation site to develop a fixed bracket.
(2) blanking: according to the size requirements, make 4 pieces of wood with different lengths and widths. Paste it with latex and nail it.
(3) metal material: aluminum alloy material for floor cabinets, with the same dimensions of height, width and length. Connect with plug-ins.
(4) Installation of lamp tubes: fluorescent tubes or led light sources are generally used. When discussing with customers, we must consider the problem of saving materials for organic boards and the length of fluorescent tubes. When installing, install lamp holders and ignition lamps at both ends of the lamp holder, and the ballast will be placed next to it. It is best to stick the ignition lamps with adhesive tape after trial burning. The power cord is connected according to the ballast circuit, and the wooden frame is wired according to the schematic diagram of fluorescent lamp ballast.
(5) Board surface: there are mostly white backgrounds, and there are two kinds of plexiglass plates: milky white and magnetic white. Generally love to use magnetic whiteboard: first, white magnetic board, white face; Second, the leftover materials can be used for processing small print, otherwise the milky white paste can't be used, the red background is red, the blue background is blue, and the benzene board can't be done, and the glue marks can be seen. Cut the board of the light box with a hook knife, and the length, width and size are 2-3 mm smaller than the wooden frame.
(6) Paste the organic advertising words: arrange the words on the surface of the light box according to the design, lightly check, straighten the words, and then paste them with organic glass glue. There are two pasting methods, one is to stick the organic glue on it, and the other is to use a medical needle to suck the organic glue and gently inject the edge. The second one is better than the first one. Check whether there are any typos, missing words or reversed words, and check whether each word is glued firmly and whether there are any missing words.
(7) cleaning: use a small piece of clean cloth, dip it in some water, and then squeeze some toothpaste to wipe it evenly. After wiping it evenly, dip it in some water with a cloth, and wipe it on a large area. The water is not easy, so the cloth can be wet.
(8) installation sequence: design bracket → blanking → welding → fixing → installing light box.
