LED strip illuminated signs are a popular option for decorative lighting and signage due to their flexibility and ease of installation. The cut and customization of these strips can vary depending on the type of project and LED strip specifications. Here are some common types of cutting and customization for LED striped illuminated signs:
1. Regular Cutout
Description: This type of cutout refers to fitting the sign into a rectangle.
Applications: Used for signs where the design must conform to simple geometric shapes.
Advantages: Easy to make and reduces the risk of damage to LEDs and circuitry.
2. Cutting Irregular to Sign Shape
Description: This technique involves cutting the LED strip irregularly to perfectly match the contour of a specific sign, which may have a complex shape.
Applications: Ideal for customized signs that have unique shapes such as logos or designs.
Advantages: Allows precise adaptation to the contour of the sign, ensuring uniform and aesthetically pleasing illumination.
3. Letter-Shaped Irregular Cutout
Description: Similar to irregular cropping to the sign shape, this type of cropping focuses on adjusting the LED stripe to perfectly match the contour of each letter in a text. Usually this type of cropping is only possible on large signs.
Applications: Used for illuminated signs involving text such as company names, slogans or advertisements.
Advantages: Signs cut this way have the least material used giving a transparent appearance.
4. Regular Cutout on Plexiglass Supports
Description: In this technique, the LED strip is cut into a rectangle and mounted on plexiglass holders that have been pre-cut to the desired sizes and shapes.
Applications: Used for signs that require a solid and transparent backing, providing a finished and modern look.
Advantages: The sign can be placed on flat surfaces such as on the ground or on a table.
