LED standard light assembly to promote the popularity of lighting

With the sharp decline in the price of LED lighting products, the era of LED universal lighting will gradually come. According to the latest LED bulb retail price survey, in March 2013, the prices of LED bulbs in various regions of the world showed a steady downward trend, the global average price of LED bulbs replacing 40W fell by 3.9%, and the global average price of LED bulbs replacing 60W dropped by 6.5%. However, in the Chinese market, the price of local brand light bulbs, in particular replacing 40 W, continues to remain low. With the price difference between energy saving fluorescent lamps getting closer and closer, consumers' preference for more energy-saving LED lamps is further enhanced and LED lighting will accelerate the penetration of the market.

However, one side is the accelerated penetration of LED lighting products into the market, while the proliferation of low-quality, low-quality products and frequent outbreaks of quality door incidents have seriously affected consumer acceptance of LEDs and hindered the popularity of LED lighting products.

Low quality, poor compatibility: The crisis behind the accelerated penetration of the LED lighting market

“At present, the market prospects for LED public lighting and commercial lighting are relatively large. The market penetration rate in 2013 may be more than 10%, and civil lighting may be relatively weaker. However, this is enough to support the recovery of the entire market, public lighting, and commercial lighting. Lighting accounts for about 70% of the total market.” At Zhongshan LED Lighting Quality Upgrade Strategy Conference, Zhou Xuejun, Director of Asia Marketing, Philips Lumileds pointed out.

In the first quarter of this year, with the EU banned the sale of incandescent lamps, the demand for LED lighting in the foreign market has shown rapid growth. On the other hand, in China, the public lighting market continues to promote, among which public lighting in Guangdong Province is the most popular. This year is the implementation of the "Guangdong Province to promote the use of LED lighting products implementation plan" implementation year, is expected to install more than 1.1 million new LED street lamps in 2013, setting off a new round of promotion and application boom.

On the other hand, low quality and low price have become a persistent problem that has plagued LED lighting. According to the investigation of GSCResearch, LED core parts have a large gap between workmanship and materials. LED's life span varies greatly. Low-quality, low-cost LED products severely disrupt the market, and LED products are high-end, high-efficiency, energy-saving, and future. The deviation of the image industry of the best alternative light source has greatly affected consumer acceptance of LED. Especially in the export market, low-quality, low-cost LED lamps have become a common impression of overseas markets on Chinese lamps, which has seriously affected the confidence of overseas markets in China's LED lamps. In addition, the poor compatibility of LED lighting products also adds difficulty to the promotion and popularization of LED lighting.

LED standard optical components: Obstacles to sweeping out the popularity of LED lighting products

Why LED lamps are branded with low quality labels? The reason is that the lack of LED industry standards is the key. At present, in the country from the power to the finished product, LED lighting does not have a set of standardized and unified standard system, there is no mandatory testing and certification requirements, each company's own existing equipment and facilities, their respective work bases and technical levels of development are not balanced. , resulting in the emergence of a wide range of LED lighting applications on the market, different performance, poor interchangeability, quality varies greatly.

To this end, Guangdong Province has accelerated the pace of implementation of LED lighting standard optical components, and actively carry out standardization of optical components, and accelerate the promotion and application of LED lighting standard optical components.

So, what exactly is an LED standard optical component? "According to the backward traceability of the LED lighting product manufacturing chain, LED lighting products can be extracted from the upstream devices and modules to the downstream light sources and lighting products. The LED lighting standard optical component project idea is to go upstream from the LED lighting products. To the downstream, including industrial middleware, covering the entire industry chain, to achieve the 'chain standardization' and the formation of product lineage. "Shenzhen LED lighting standard optical components training meeting, the Guangdong Provincial Standard optical components project overall expert group secretariat, Foshan City Dr. Luo Ji from the Institute of Sun Yat-Sen University introduced: “The LED standard optical components are represented by mature components that are optimized for actual production and application, and are appropriately optimized. They can be mass-produced and applied to the most versatile and cost-effective products. ”

Realizing the standardization of optical components is of great significance to the current development of the LED industry. “First, for the application terminal requirements, standardization and standardization of LED lighting industry middleware is expected to break through the pattern of the leading industrial chain of the core technology of the upstream and foreign companies and expand the survival space of the national enterprise. Second, the process of product formation begins. , Improve the standard system, standardize product testing, can effectively solve the serious problem of non-standardization of LED lighting products, achieve universal interchange between similar products. Third, the formation of standard products at all levels, can promote professional division of labor and cooperation, guidance Industry enters a healthy and orderly market competition."

In the era of full-scale adoption of LED lighting, LED standard optical components achieve the compatibility of LED lighting products with their scientificity and standardization, and have played an assembly number for the popularity of LED products. With the increasing development and expansion of the LED lighting standard optical component application alliance, it will play an increasingly important role in the popularity of LED lighting.
