Experts discuss the development trend of LED industry in China next year

A few days ago, the 2017 Chief consultant Market Analysis meeting was held in Shenzhen, and a number of analysts and senior industry players were invited to share and discuss on the spot. The conference will focus on the development trend of LED industry in 2017 and China, and will discuss Micro- LED, uv led, vehicle lighting, LED price game phenomenon and other topics to interpret. Below, Xiaobian takes everyone to pay attention to what dry goods are worth our attention. Storage ultra 2017 LED manufacturers accelerated into niche style application field storage ultra first overall review the LED industry 2016 of development situation he pointed out that 2016 LED market output value up to 14. 8 billion beauty yuan years growth 3. 4. Looking forward to 2017, the competition in the LED market is still fierce. Manufacturers will accelerate their transfer to niche markets such as small-pitch display screens, infrared and ultraviolet LED in order to make profits. The estimated output value will reach 15. 4 billion US dollars, with an annual growth. The growth rate of LED market output value in 2016 is not high, but the overall industry has undergone drastic changes. Chu Yuchao said that under the rise of demand for small-pitch LED displays, the supply of upstream LED chips is tight, making some LED chips and packaged devices the first price increase in the past five years. As for the downstream LED lighting products, there has also been a large price increase. The main reason is to reflect the increase in the cost of raw materials, especially the price increase of bulk metal raw materials such as copper and aluminum in the second half of this year, LED lighting manufacturers have to announce price increases to reflect costs. However, this wave of price hikes has limited benefits for manufacturers, so most LED manufacturers are actively thinking about transformation strategies and accelerating their transformation into niche markets. For the subdivision field, Chu Yuchao believes that the small-pitch LED display screen market has become a battleground for military strategists. As the small-pitch LED display screen has driven the number of LED usage to increase geometrically, attract many Chinese LED packaging factories to expand their production capacity to grab this market pie. In addition, UVC- The application market of LED will gradually expand with the improvement of efficiency, while infrared LED will have great business opportunities in the fields of security, iris recognition and somatosensory detection of VR applications. Another important event in 2017 is that Micro LED products are expected to come out. Micro LED has the opportunity to replace the next generation display technology of OLED panel, attracting many brand manufacturers to invest in research and development resources. Although the current Micro LED distance replaces the existing TFT-LCD (Liquid crystal) And OLED displays are still quite far away, and there are still many new display technologies competing in the market, but some manufacturers have planned to introduce Micro LED display applications with market positioning different from LCD or OLED panels, accelerate mass production with a lower PPI or a relatively small number of pixels. LEDinside expects to see Micro LED related products coming out one after another in 2017. Liu Zhaojun Micro- With the development of LED display technology, LED has gradually attracted more and more attention in recent years due to its superior characteristics such as high brightness, high efficiency, long service life, etc. At present, LED is not only applied to LCD backlight module, intelligent lighting and outdoor large screen, but also Micro LED display is attracting the attention of major display technology companies and research institutes in the world. Liu Zhaojun, assistant professor of the school of joint engineering at Carnegie Mellon University of Sun Yat-sen University, believes that as a spontaneous optical device, micro-LED has its unique advantages, for example, its low working voltage, high efficiency, high brightness, simple optical structure and wide working range are considered as ideal next generation display technologies, its applications will include large/medium size outdoor/indoor large screens, desktop computers/notebook computer displays, mobile products such as mobile phones/digital cameras/portable projector screens, wearable products such as watches/bracelets. Liu Zhaojun said that as one of the early research and development teams of micro-LED technology in the world, his team has developed 7 generations of micro-LED technology in the past ten years, from passive site selection drive micro LED array to active site selection micro LED array, from small area chip to module transfer large-scale technology, from monochrome to color, from ultraviolet micro LED to blue light, green light, red light Micro LED display, in addition, the world has developed a de-backlight micro-LED projector, and a micro-LED display chip with integrated optical communication function has also been available. Sun Jiaxin uv led product technology development trend and overall solutions. In recent years, the gross profit margin of the LED industry has been declining, and general lighting has accelerated into a stable period. Enterprises have begun to expand the emerging blue ocean market, uv led is considered to be the feast of the second half of the LED, and it is chased by the market and enterprises. In order to enable the industry to have a deeper understanding of uv led and solar Optoelectronics, dr. Sun Jiaxin, technical director of tiandian Optoelectronics, shared his experience and opinions on the development trend of uv led product technology and the overall solution. Dr. Sun Jiaxin from UVA with slightly higher maturity- LED market, packaging and chip technology extend one by one to more difficult UVC-LED market, technology and product solutions. As far as uv led packaging technology is concerned, Dr. Sun Jiaxin said that for 265nm and UVC- For LED product packaging, it is recommended to use all-inorganic packaging to avoid using organic materials to improve the service life and reliability to make up for the shortage of chips, while other bands will use white light packaging technology. The development of technology cannot be separated from the promotion of the market, and regarding the market development of uv led, Dr. Sun Jiaxin from UVA-LED and UVC-LED two markets are elaborated one by one. Dr. Sun Jiaxin believes that UVA- LED is mainly used in the three major markets of exposure machine, printer and printing machine. It is estimated that the market size of China will reach 4. 5% by 2018. RMB 4. 7 billion. UVC- LED is mainly medical, sterilization/purification and biological monitoring. The market forecast for most of the air/water purification modules will increase from US $0. 1 billion in 2016 to US $0. 4 billion in 2019, with CAGR exceeding 50. After extending to the field of applied products, Dr. Sun Jiaxin deeply analyzed the representative product solutions in UVA curing, UVC purification and sterilization.
