King process provides a glimpse into the creation of professional-grade LED signage at a Korean shop specializing in custom-built signs. The showcased signs are not typical rectangular lightboxes but fully customized designs tailored to match the shape of a company’s logo. The shop utilizes 3D printing technology to produce signs in various shapes without the need for custom tooling.
The 3D printers employed in the process have large build volumes, particularly in the X and Y dimensions. The first step involves creating the outline of the sign, serving as the base for the build. Translucent silicone is then applied to fill cavities in the sign, acting as a diffuser material. Once cured, these sections are hand-colored as needed. LED strips are installed on a backing plate to illuminate different parts of the sign.
The final product is a clean, brightly glowing sign, resembling neon signs but without the limitations of glass tubes. The video provides insight into the professional techniques used in creating customized LED signage, ensuring precision and quality in the finished product.
