Zigong lanterns pay attention to lifelike images, bright colors, and fine shapes. They often take characters, animals, dinosaurs, flowers and birds, myths, and stories as themes, and are full of a strong folk culture atmosphere.
The production process of Zigong-colored lanterns is complicated, and it needs to go through multiple links such as material selection, design, cutting, pasting, painting, and assembly. Producers usually need to have rich creative ability and exquisite handicraft skills. Among them, the most critical link is painting, which determines the color effect and artistic value of lighting. Painters need to use rich pigments, brushstrokes, and techniques to decorate the surface of the lighting to life.
Zigong lanterns can be designed and produced according to customer requirements. Including the shape, size, color, pattern, etc. of colored lights. Suitable for various promotions and decorations, theme parks, amusement parks, dinosaur parks, commercial activities, Christmas, festival exhibitions, city squares, landscape decorations, etc. You can consult us and provide your customized needs. We will design according to your requirements and produce lantern works that meet your expectations.
What are the normal materials for Zigong lanterns?
1. Light group chassis material.
The chassis of the lamp group is an important structure to support the entire lamp group. According to the size of the lamp group, the materials used for the chassis are different. Small lamp sets use rectangular tubes, medium-sized lamp sets use angle steel, and the angle steel is generally 30-angle steel, while extra-large lamp sets may use U-shaped channel steel. The chassis of the lamp group is the foundation of the lamp group, so it is necessary to ensure the quality of the material of the lamp group chassis.
2. Light group frame material.
The skeleton of the lamp group is the shape of the lamp group, which has a crucial influence on the lamp group. There are two options for the frame material of the lamp group according to the size of the lamp group. The most commonly used is No. 8 iron wire, followed by steel bars with a diameter of 6 mm. Sometimes because the skeleton is too large, the center of the skeleton must be reinforced. At this time, some 30-angle steel or round steel must be added to the center of the skeleton as support.
3. Lamp light source material.
How can a colored lantern be called a colored lantern without a light source? The selection of the light source of the lamp group is carried out according to the design and material of the lamp group. The light source materials of the light group include LED bulbs, LED light strips, LED light strings, and LED spotlights. Different light source materials can create different effects.
4. The surface material of the lamp group.
The surface material of the lamp group is selected according to the material of the lamp group. There are traditional paper, mineral water bottles, waste medicine bottles, and other special materials. Commonly used traditional paper, generally use satin cloth and Bamei satin, the two materials are smooth to the touch, have very good light transmission, and the gloss can have the effect of real silk.
Zigong lanterns production process
1. Four pictures and one book.
The four drawings generally refer to plane renderings, construction drawings, electrical schematic diagrams, and mechanical transmission schematic diagrams. A book refers to a creative instruction booklet. The specific steps are that, according to the creative theme of the creative planner, the art designer designs the plane effect diagram of the lantern with hand-drawn drawings or computer-aided methods. The art and craft engineer draws the construction drawing of the lantern production structure according to the plane effect drawing of the lantern. The electrical engineer or technician draws the schematic diagram of the electrical installation of the lantern according to the construction drawing. A mechanical engineer or technician draws a traditional schematic diagram of a machine from the produced shop drawings. Lantern Changyi planners describe in writing the theme, content, lighting, and mechanical effects of the lantern products.
2. Art production stakeout.
The printed paper sample is distributed to each type of personnel, and it is checked again during the production process. The enlarged sample is generally made by the art craftsman according to the design of the structural construction drawing, and the aggregated lantern elements are scaled up on the ground in a single piece so that the modeling craftsman can make it according to the large sample.
3. Inspect the shape of the sample.
The modeling craftsman uses self-made tools to check out the parts that can be used for modeling by using the iron wire according to the large sample. Spot welding is when the modeling technologist, under the guidance of the art technologist, uses the spot welding process to weld the detected wire parts into three-dimensional colored lamp parts. If there are some dynamic colorful lights, there are also steps for making and installing mechanical transmissions.
4. Electrical installation.
Electrical engineers or technicians install LED bulbs, light strips, or light tubes according to design requirements, make control panels, and connect mechanical components such as motors.
5. Color separation paper.
According to the artist's instructions on the colors of the three-dimensional lantern parts, the pasting craftsman selects silk cloth of various colors and decorates the surface through cutting, bonding, welting, and other processes.
6. Art processing.
Art craftsmen use spraying, hand-painting, and other methods to complete the artistic treatment consistent with the renderings on the pasted three-dimensional lantern parts.
7. On-site installation.
Under the guidance of an artist and craftsman, assemble and install the instructions of the construction structure drawing for each colored lantern component that has been made, and finally form a colored lantern group that is consistent with the rendering.
