LED early adopter 3D printing technology will become the development direction
3D printing technology is one of the hottest technologies, including consumer products and electronics, automotive, medical, construction, aerospace and other industries can see 3D printing. Moreover, with the development of materials that can be used for printing, the research of 3D printing technology will break through its own limitations. For example, 3D printing will have more embedded components: batteries, electronics, sensors and so on. It is understood that companies use 3D printing technology to manufacture different methods, some in the early stage of the product, and some in the production of the product. Because in the actual manufacturing applications, some of the traditional manufacturing can not be completed, the 3D printing technology will be adopted; in general, many manufacturers nowadays use 3D printing technology more or less. Of course, LED lighting as a new industry involved in 3D printing technology is also a matter of course, and in the early adopters of a few companies, is getting rid of the high ranks, and also began to have some 3D printed LED lighting products, perhaps in the near future will become a popular consumer goods. The first batch of early adopters Today, 3D printing is popular in the world. 3D printing technology, which used to be used in mold making and industrial design, is now used in the manufacture of some products and has achieved very good response. On September 23, Jiangsu Wenrun Optoelectronics held a brand strategy conference in Shanghai. At the press conference, several 3D printed LED lamps exhibited by Wenrun Optoelectronics really attracted attention. Now, 3D printing technology has begun to be applied in the field of lighting. Lan Youjin, general manager of Wenrun Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. said that Steady Optoelectronics cooperates with Blue Frog Technology to use 3D printing technology to help LED lighting research and development, printing and displaying new LED tubes and shapes. Beautiful lampshades, etc., not only accelerate the launch of new products, but also add value to the creative and artistic sense of the products. Xu Hao, director of blue frog technology marketing, said that at present, together with Wenrun Optoelectronics, the use of 3D printing technology for LED research and development mainly involves cooperation in two aspects. First, some of the components in the bulb began to try out the 3D printer, and the 3D printer was used to test the assembly effect of the new product. Second, 3D printing technology can be used to make some lamps similar to industrial design. Designers can design 3D printers for quick verification. In addition to Steady Optoelectronics involved in LED lighting 3D printing, the reporter found that as early as last year, Guangdong Kaixiou Lighting Co., Ltd. has printed the first combined LED track light, the plastic parts of the product are all from 3D printing, and can be free Disassembly and assembly. Wu Yulin, general manager of Kaixiou Lighting, said that Germany has already realized the industrialization of 3D printing, and does not use other machines to directly use 3D printers. At present, the technical aspects of 3D printers in China are not good enough, and they cannot be industrialized. We have purchased three 3D printers for LED lighting product development. Tan Jianru, the electronic technology director of Xitong, said that if LED lighting is going to the family, the choice of modeling is wider. Designed with 3D printing technology, it will bring convenience to the LED lamp manufacturing itself and the design of the circuit board. Moreover, according to the problems encountered in the actual production process of LED enterprises and actual needs, 3D printing technology officially cut into the LED industry. In addition, at this year's Frankfurt exhibition, Philips showed a series of new Hue members, the most notable of which are two 3D printed lighting fixtures. The luminaire is a fusion of lighting, art and technology. With the built-in Hue module, people can use the smart mobile terminal to control it arbitrarily, and let the 3D printing technology fully integrate with the LED intelligent lighting, which will inevitably make people's future LED general illumination. Design and application are full of expectations. Intrinsic advantages 3D printing technology is gradually being cited by LED companies. 3D printing has a natural advantage over traditional mold manufacturing in terms of shortening the development cycle and cost. Compared with traditional manufacturing, 3D printing technology has the advantage of faster forming. Compared with opening mold, the fastest opening cycle requires half a month to one month. For 3D printing, as long as there is design Good 3D printing, if you are fast, for an hour or two, if you are slow, you can give the sample to the customer in a few hours. Xu Hao said. Fei Wei, deputy general manager of Wenrun Optoelectronics, said that using 3D printing technology in industrial design can save cost and time. It can make multiple sets of solutions in the same time and can be verified quickly. In the past, it required a cycle of molding. Longer and more expensive. The other is personalization, because LED lighting products are now mainly light source replacement products, and the application field of LED is far greater than the existing lighting range, and can be designed into a variety of refreshing things. Some fixtures start 3D printing, and the cost of using traditional molding is great. In view of the advantages of LED itself, 3D printing technology can be used to make some very creative lighting products. LED lighting products are ultimately expressed through the luminaires. It is impossible to sell a chip, sell a semi-finished product, and finally sell the finished product. The finished product still depends on the customer's needs. Wu Yulin said that when there was no 3D printing, we often gave the customers a good mold and then showed them to the customers. As a result, the customers were not satisfied, so all the molds and products were scrapped, and almost one or two million yuan of investment would be It’s a waste of water. Since the purchase of 3D printers, it has saved a lot of money when developing and providing small batch production for customers. It is understood that the lamp bead packaging process of LED lamps needs to be packaged with glue. The 3D printing technology can be replaced by light-curing glue, which can directly print the plate, saving most of the time. Xu Hao said that at present, the cost of the lamps printed by the LED companies is negligible compared to the mold opening, and the printing cost is also tens of yuan and hundreds of yuan; if the mold is mass-produced, the single cost will be a few cents. Fei Wei also said that we have successfully intervened in the development of LED devices using 3D printing technology, and tried to make some models of the cooperation between chips and brackets. In addition, the use of 3D printing technology in the lighting structure design and shape design of the luminaire can better reflect its advantages. The 3D printing technology is more involved in the downstream research and development, which in turn promotes the improvement of the company's own packaging level. It is believed that with the advantages of 3D printing technology, the innovative research and development of LED products can bring new innovative ideas to LED enterprises.
