Accelerate The Integration of LED Lighting

Billion market is about to break , and went through a consolidation , but the LED

LED lighting

lighting industry, " income does not increase profits ," the dilemma still exists. Engineering research in emerging industries producing investment strategy meeting held recently , Zhang Institute of Engineering LED industry standard that this year the LED lighting industry will enter a new round of golden period . Zhang standard is expected to accelerate the survival of the fittest upstream and downstream lighting needs expansion, industry mergers and acquisitions will accelerate the LED lighting industry in 2014 three Aspect.

Indoor Lighting Demand Continues to Expand

As prices fall , quality improvement , LED lighting has begun to enter the homes of ordinary people ." Cost-effective LED lighting , has been accepted by the market , resulting in actual demand , do not rely on the government to promote . Incandescent eliminated played a catalytic role ." Zhang standard that reached a critical point last year , this year is more obvious , the market will develop rapidly.

Over the past two years , the price of LED lighting fell by 60 %-80 %, prices will continue to fall this year , but the decline will be narrowed. Currently on the market , low-end LED lights cheaper than energy-saving lamps .

Engineering LED research data show that last year the domestic LED application market reached 208.1 billion yuan , which accounted for 30% of indoor lighting ; to 2015 , accounting for indoor lighting will be further raised to 41%. Indoor lighting thrust China one of the largest LED application market growth.

The mass gradually phase out incandescent countries , and promote the application of LED lighting in the room . Research Institute of Industrial Engineering Xiaofei estimated that the global demand for 500 million this year, there are alternative -10 one hundred million incandescent bulb with an LED U.S. 3-5 count, it is not a small market .

Therefore , China's exports of LED lighting is also growing rapidly . Zhang standard revealed that Chinese exports to over 10 billion LED lighting business for the first time last year ; LED lighting exports last year of $ 100 million over 50 Chinese companies this year is expected to more than 100 .

More Ferocious Wave of Industry Consolidation

Currently there are LED packaging companies 1500 , LED applications, enterprise 13000 . Due to intense competition , prices fell last year, LED industry on a " no increase in interest income " phenomenon . Usher in the golden period of the year, this situation changed?

" This year there will be the case, but will get better ." Zhang marked believes that while industry consolidation to accelerate : the market gets hot , not enough time to increase their supply , it will go to acquire ; some of the negotiation of the project last year , this year will fall .

Before the Spring Festival , Tongfang announcement , the proposed $ 700 million acquisition of 51% stake in Neo-Neon . This merger with BDO Runda similar to NVC . Xiaofei think , BDO Runda see is NVC channels in the country , and shares the same side see is really bright in the overseas channels.

Neo-Neon is headquartered in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, is a big exporter of LED lighting , has accounted for 50 % of the global LED lighting market share. Zhang Xiaofei , said on the same side in the past invested in a large LED chip , and now the acquisition of Neo-Neon is to open up the downstream " to the sea ."

The three optical successfully completed before the Spring Festival this year, a new round of additional financing 3.3 billion yuan , and now intends to expand the LED chip production capacity of approximately doubled. Xiaofei think , one is market demand , on the other hand Sanan also like squeezed small businesses.

Zhang standard expects LED upper, middle and lower reaches , there will be mergers and acquisitions of listed companies , state-owned enterprises will be subject.

The LED chip survival of the fittest was evident. Currently there are more than 50 LED chip companies , due to the large companies continue to expand , small enterprises are facing operating pressure. Last year, the Dalian Road America , Blaupunkt , etc., have quit LED chip industry .

From the many listed companies reported results notice , the sharp advance by many companies , for example, the country star power , Chau Ming Technology and other companies in 2012 net profit up sharply in general , and in 2013 it achieved a significant advance by both approaches or exceeds 100% , exceeding market expectations.

At the same time , we also noted that from 2010 to 2013 , the domestic LED indoor lighting products prices fell by more than 20 percent annually . In this context , some less competitive companies into " income does not increase profits" of the situation. From the industrial chain, the upstream chip due to enter higher barriers, competition is relatively no package midstream and downstream applications fierce . In packaging and application areas , due to technical threshold is not high, so capacity can be quickly released, is the main cause product prices gradually downward . Related companies are also listed on the profitability decline in danger to Ruifeng power ( market share it traded points ) , for example, from the third quarter of 2010 to 2013 , the gross profit margin was 30.97% , 27.15% , 22.10% , 20.98% , substantial decline means profitability. The same phenomenon is widespread downstream lighting applications , such Hongli Opto-electronic ( market share it traded points ) , Foshan Lighting ( market share it traded points ) .

LED Lighting Environmental Advocacy Should Go Home First Row

LED light source

OFweek Reuters semiconductor lighting LED light source along with the global tide pour replaced , LED lighting market , " bright" up. For the LED industry, this is a big hi Pu Ben good news.

From January 1, 2014 , the world's major countries competing incandescent sounding " Taps " : the United States began to stop selling 40 -watt and 60-watt incandescent , Korea, Thailand , the Philippines have also taken measures to promote energy-saving lamps . From October 1 , China also will ban the import and sale of 60 watts and above ordinary incandescent lighting . For the LED industry, this is a big hi Pu Ben good news.

With the tide of global LED light source to replace pour , LED lighting market , " bright" up. LED current in terms of propaganda did not do better. As we all know , LED lighting design has the advantage of energy saving , LED and our people in the publicity is to promote more energy-efficient it is not going to promote environmental awareness . But for ordinary families, day lighting limited time , save electricity proportion of the total electricity little more electrical power consumption is no way to save out . So for consumers, and did not see LED energy brought immediate results.

For home lighting , we should like to highlight how the use of environmentally friendly, to do publicity in the humanities and health. The current price of LED light bulbs and the general still has a gap, then the people will consider in the choice of cost, will favor an ordinary light bulb . When the price of LED lighting is really little difference between ordinary light bulb , when people will be more than one aspect to consider in the choice of an energy-saving , environmentally friendly one . Now people have gradually realized the problem in this regard , the popularity of the late LED would like home , is a question of cost , the price continued to fall, which is the major companies to work together to process efforts. Another is the LED lighting engineering aspects of people to stand in the promotion of environmental protection , so as to cater to the home . So, since the amount of home lighting is definitely there, but when they can completely replace traditional light sources , probably within two three years.

Subvert Your Product Concept - Nanoleaf LED Bulb

OFweek semiconductor lighting Reuters believe your eyes , you're not wrong , this guy is at first glance a little ugly , that today we want to share the LED bulb.

This is the room long Spring Festival boring brush Quora ( known abroad almost , almost exactly , it should be known to the cottage object ) to see the information , Barbara was a surprise.

This is all foreign to raise a public website kickstarter.com to raise project financing has now been completed and has been in mass production of .

Before officially entering the introduction, take a look at how the foreign media is evaluated it:

CNET - ". An early glimpse into the future of household LED lighting" ( I seem to see the shadow of the bulb of the future )

Geek.com - "definitely looks like no light bulb that anyone has ever seen before, but maybe that's what it takes to usher in the future of lighting." ( Oh my God, I can not believe my eyes she was a long way but maybe she is the future look like )

CBC News - "An eye-catching invention." ( Just because the crowd look at you )

The Crowdfund Mafia - "!. We're doing backflips for the NanoLight Product of the year" (! Product of the Year for you to do backflips simply can not stop ! ! ! ! )

Generous words of praise , in the end what 's screaming at it , I mean in addition to appearance ( whether you are delighted or scared ) to look at the parameters ? :

- 12W

- 1800lm ( where there should be screaming )

- 3500K/4000K

- CRI 70

- Omnidirectional

In this alternative product 75W LED lighting is also very rare times, replace 100W many people even to think , feel that LED is burned every minute thing, but Nanoleaf can be the perfect alternative to a 100W incandescent bulb and the luminous efficiency of up to 150lm / W, is simply incredible, is the world's most energy-efficient lighting products !

Lower LED costs while taking care quality and efficiency , thus promoting the development of a new generation of MOCVD equipment. Simply put , the production efficiency LED die with old machines , and therefore can not just go to a cyclical industry capacity standpoint LED industry , in order to keep pace with productivity international companies , domestic manufacturers have to expansion this year , while expansion manufacturers in the current industry environment, the expansion is expected to benefit from the positive effects brought about .

Sapphire ingot prices mainly from the LED needs rather than on the mobile phone applications : recent research sapphire supply chain ( long grain and cutting manufacturers ) , briefly summarized as follows : 1 ) to 2-inch products, for example , about $ 4 in the fourth quarter of last year expected in March this year will increase to $ 5.5 , primarily from the LED needs.4-inch products offer about 30 dollars. 2 ) Crystal Supply:

GTAT now construct the scale is four times the world's largest manufacturer of crystal supply , it is almost equivalent to the current eighty percent of the world's supply of sapphire . 3 ) sapphire hardness only to diamond , it is also a difference in cutting efficiency compared with glass. Conclusion: this year or next year to see the sapphire cover on iPhone, GTAT on crystal growth and yield breakthrough technology is the most basic key .

Valuation and recommendation remain volatile market after the Lunar New Year , with five since January 27 opening date , the Shanghai Composite Index fell 0.5 percent , the electronic sector rose by 1.5% , including a touch screen and LED gains were 1.6 % and 1.3% , callback security sector fell 2.4 %. Revenue dazzling LED manufacturers in January , backlight and lighting up the goods have the phenomenon in the first quarter continued to shine , showing promising before the end . Determine the security industry growth performance and high margin of safety (vs. deadline to February 7, 2014 electronics sector as a whole excluding negative earnings 46.8XTTM_ whole law ) , it is recommended that investors can bargain overweight.

The downside risk in the first quarter : 1 ) prepare shipments of apples and apple terminal industry chain does not match the actual shipments ; 2) LED decline in value too quickly. Upside risks: iPhone went on sale after the move , the demand is higher than expected.

LED Light Print "Confession Machine"

confession machine

This stuff is not a product, the principle is very simple, do yourself a set of LED array plus child photosensitive paper roll can be achieved, it is important point is that the artist wants to express an idea, a kind of "repentance" Reflections .


This "work of art" by an Israeli artist hand, as I said above, he used a set of LED array and UV-sensitive paper to do a "Burn After Reading" and "Confessions"! LED array printer across a particular combination of luminous light-sensitive paper in accordance with, a group will leave a text, after the word, the text is faded out of sight. Technical Score: 2 points; effect Score: 4 points; creative Score: 5 points!

Why is the "Confessions " ? I'll give you explain some of the feelings we have most of the daily dialogue and exchanges are on the network, through chat or social platform , we express the mood and message and comment because of the progressive and slowly disappear in time the network. Foreign Snapchat ( Burn After Reading is a social application ) is not very fire Well , why fire ? The reason is precisely because we remain in the network for Shanghai amount of personal information and dialogue , people began to prefer " no reservations " ! So for " repentance " , this form of better and better material . Like you go to church against "Confession house" tell the hidden secrets of your heart , like you want to say it, but you certainly do not want it to be recorded.

Designers engage in such a " work of art " out, on the one hand the purpose is to visually reflect the continuous passage of information per second, every minute on the network . On the other hand is to use this " lapse " way to express their hearts to repent for many things , both maps have a sacred reality of religious significance.

With a sense of technology "electronic art" Although far from the mainstream, but at least the normal product, are the product of creative inspiration and design manufactured, from another angle, it can also be turned into a product, to see Those of us onlookers how to understand the concept expressed in it, and to consider whether the original intent of the concept pay.
