LED sphere screens System Price

The price of LED sphere screen system is not static, but is affected by many factors. In general, its price mainly includes the following aspects:

Screen body

The screen body is the core part of the LED sphere screen and the main part. The price of the screen body is closely related to its area, resolution, dot pitch and other parameters. The larger the area, the higher the resolution, and the smaller the dot pitch, the higher the price of the screen body. In addition, the LED control card and the receiving card are also important components of the screen body. The quantity and quality will also affect the overall price of the screen body.

For example, a 5 meters diameter P3 LED sphere screen has a screen area of about 78.5 square meters. According to market price estimates, the price of the screen part will be between $1000 and $2,200 per square meter. The specific price needs to be adjusted according to the selected materials, production process and other factors.

Project system equipment

In addition to the screen part, the LED sphere screen project also needs to be equipped with a series of system equipment, including computers, video processors, etc. The computer is used as a control terminal, and you can send the image and video information you want to send to the screen;

The Novastar or Colorlight 1080P or 4K video processor is responsible for receiving video, audio and digital signals from various external sources, and processing, scaling, adjusting and optimizing them to ensure high-quality display effects. The different brands performance and quality will also affect the cost and effect of the entire project.

Project structure and cable equipment

The installation of the LED sphere screen requires the construction of corresponding structures and cable equipment, including power distribution cabinets, wiring, heat dissipation equipment, screen structure, etc.

• The power of the power distribution cabinet needs to be determined according to the power consumption of the sphere screen to ensure its stable operation;
• The wiring needs to consider the transmission distance and interference of the signal;
• The heat dissipation equipment is used to solve the heat problem generated by the screen during operation.

The cost and complexity of these equipment and structures will also directly affect the total price of the project.

Other costs

In addition to the above costs, LED sphere screen projects also need to consider packaging, transportation, installation and other costs. Although these costs account for a small proportion of the entire project cost, they also need to be reasonably budgeted and arranged.

Factors affecting the price of LED sphere screens

Pixel pitch and diameter

Pixel pitch and diameter are important factors affecting the price of LED sphere screens. The smaller the point pitch, the more delicate the display effect, but the higher the cost. For example, for the same area, P3 is much more expensive than P6; similarly, the larger the diameter, the larger the screen area, the more materials and equipment required, and the price will naturally rise. Therefore, when choosing an LED sphere screen, you’d better weigh and choose according to actual needs and economic conditions.

Brightness and waterproof performance

If sphere LED display are used outdoors, they also need to have a higher brightness, usually about 6000CD/m2 and waterproof performance needs to reach IP65 or above, so that they can still display normally even in bad weather conditions. These additional requirements will increase the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the screen, thereby pushing up the overall price. In contrast, the LED sphere screen used indoors can be between 800-1000 brightness and IP31 waterproof, which can effectively reduce costs.

Brand and quality

Different brands of LED sphere screens differ in quality, performance and service, so the prices will also vary. Well-known brands, such as Doitvision, usually have higher product quality and a more complete service system, but our prices are relatively moderate.
