A rotating LED screen is an LED display that can rotate in one or more axes to create a 360-degree display. They are more vivid and attractive in visual presentation. You may have seen them in retail stores, concerts, trade shows and many other occasions.

• Display content from multiple angles
• Good viewing experience
• Show every detail

But do you know how it works? How much does the screen cost? Let’s take a closer look.

How a rotating LED screen works

A rotating LED screen is inseparable from the coordinated work of complex mechanical and electronic components inside it. The screen is usually composed of flexible LED panels, which are mounted on a rotating structure. To make them rotate seamlessly, you need the  precision motors help. They can precisely control the speed and direction of rotation, allowing the screen to rotate continuously or at fixed time intervals.

For example, at an exhibition, you can let the screen rotate slowly, so that the audience has enough time to watch the content; at a concert, you can let them rotate quickly to create an exciting atmosphere. So how much does it cost to make such an LED screen?

Factors Affecting the Price of Rotating LED Screens

The rotating LED screens price is affected by a variety of factors, including:

Indoor vs. Outdoor Use

There are significant differences in the design and manufacturing of indoor and outdoor rotating LED display screens. Outdoor  rotating screens require higher waterproof ratings and greater durability to cope with adverse weather conditions such as rain, sunlight, and high temperatures. Therefore, the  outdoor rotating display price is usually higher.

Pixel Pitch

Pixel pitch is one of the key factors that determine the clarity and resolution of the screen. Smaller pixel pitches rotating display can provide finer images and higher clarity. Therefore, P2.5 rotating screens are higher than P4.

Number of Rotating Layers and Visual Effects

The more rotating layers, the richer the visual effects and more complex dynamic displays. However, they require more complex mechanical structures and control systems to ensure synchronization and coordination between the layers. Therefore, more rotating layers screen are more expensive. Under normal circumstances, you can give priority to 3-layer rotating LED screens. They are more affordable than multiple layers such as 10-12 layers.

LED packaging technology

If you are using it indoors, using a GOB rotating screen can improve the waterproof, flatness, accuracy and service life of the LED, but their price is higher than that of SMD.

ED chip brand

LED chip is one of the core components of the screen, and its performance and quality directly affect the display effect and service life of the screen. For example: National Star LED chips usually have better performance and reliability, but the price is also higher.

Other factors:

• LED display refresh rate
• LED brightness
• LED IC
• LED control system
• LED power supply, etc.

Overview of rotating LED screen prices

LED rotating screens are a system project, and they usually need to be customized. There is no uniform price. If it is an indoor rotating LED screen, the unit price per square meter is about US$1,000-2,000.

4-sided rotating LED screen

• Product name: Four-sided rotating LED display screen
• Pixel pitch/mm: 1.9/2.5
• Dimension: Customized
• Application: Indoor/Outdoor
• Cube size: 500*500mm
• The number of layers can be customized.
• To ensure a safe experience for viewers, it is recommended that the groundinstallation height be above 2M

A standard 4-sided rotating LED screen price is roughly between US$20,000 and US$50,000, depending on the following factors:

• Screen size:
• Resolution and brightness:
• Functional features:.

Applications:

• Such as commercial exhibitions
• Concerts or large events, etc.

3-sided rotating LED display

• Pixel pitch/mm: 2/2.5/4/5/6Dimension: Customized
• Application: Indoor/Outdoor
• Top: 960160mm Middle: 960480mm
• Base:960*500cm
• Top and base are fixed and do not rotate.
• *To ensure a safe experience for viewers, it is recommended that the groundinstallation height be above 2M.

Compared to 4-sided screens, 3-sided rotating LED display screens are more affordable, but still have good display effects. Its price range is roughly between $15,000 and $35,000, depending on similar factors as 4-sided screens, but the overall price is lower.

P2.5 indoor rotating LED screen

The average price of a P2.5 indoor 3-layer rotating LED screen is about $1,200~1,500/square meter. If you make a 10 square meter rotating screen, the system is about $15,000~30,000. A 20 square meter screen system is between $24,000~40,000.

Applicable scenarios:

• Shopping malls
• Museums
• Conference rooms and other indoor environments.

P2.5 indoor 12-layer rotating LED display screen

The same P2.5 pixel pitch, but the more layers, the higher the unit price per square meter, about $1,500~2,5000 per square meter. If you make a 10 square meter 12-layer rotating screen, the system is about $18,000~35,000. The 20 square meter screen system is between $28,000~45,000.

Application:

• Large-scale events
• Exhibitions
• Occasions with complex and dynamic visual effects.

Outdoor P5 3-layer rotating LED display

Outdoor P5 3-layer rotating display screen is about $1,000~1,8000 per square meter. If you make a 10 square meter 3-layer outdoor rotating screen, the system is about $12,000~20,000. The 20 square meter screen system is between $22,000~40,000.

Applicable scenarios:

• Commercial plazas,
• Parks,
• Stadiums and other outdoor environments.

Conclusion

Compared with traditional static LED screens, rotating LED screens can provide 360-degree dynamic visual effects. Nowadays, it is favored due to a wide range of application scenarios. However, this screen requires certain production experience and challenges, and you need a professional LED display manufacturer.
