Our Quality Standards
Our groundbreaking Signage Quality Standard informs all we create by helping signage professionals and customers understand how to choose the perfect LED displays from us. Genoptic Smart Displays is proud to use only the latest in LED technologies to provide our clients with the highest quality components available to the market today. Today’s LED Sign industry has greatly suffered high failure rates from price driven inferior products entering into the market place. These products typically come from unreliable sources and combined with buyers being uneducated on what to look for when purchasing LED displays.
Materials
With many variables effecting the performance and life longevity of any LED sign, it is extremely important to be aware of the proper materials used to provide you with the best product. Although many factories are sacrificing quality for price and in return use inadequate materials and or heat sink designs. For example Genoptic Smart Displays, uses high grade aluminum in our all our cabinets instead of steel which rusts and warps over time which costs more but ensures a longer lasting durable product. We have also designed our proprietary heat sink technology matched with only the best materials for the required application.
Drivers
The life of an LED driver is mainly determined by the lifetime of the electrolytic capacitors employed. Therefore, to achieve long life of the LED drivers, it is critical to select long-life, quality electrolytic capacitors. Also, since the life of electrolytic capacitors drops by half for every 10°C increase in operating temperature, thermal management of these components is extremely important. Two key factors for reducing the temperature of the capacitors are high efficiency design (dissipating less heat in the driver) and thermal design (effective conduction and/or convection of the heat into the ambient surroundings).
LED Potting –
Copper VS Steel Terminal Pins
This is very important as it determine how long your sign will last. The terminal pins are the two pieces that come off the LED diode itself and are soldered to the PCB board(see illustration on right). If steel/iron terminal pins are commonly used in lower priced offerings which will corrode over time causing the LED to fail. It can also cause LED’s to appear dimmer than others making the images appear uneven or patchy. While using steel/iron terminal pins cuts the costs up to 30% when building an LED sign we only use copper terminal pins. Due to the high conductivity of copper our signs never have any corrosion or conductivity issues.
Manual Soldering Vs Wave/Automatic Soldering
Manual Soldering Vs Wave/Automatic Soldering- Another important consideration in the manufacturing process is how the components are soldered together. Typically there are two ways to solder, wave and manual. Manual soldering is a unique process with many variables and people being one of them. To make consistent joints every time all the time, the people have to be trained continuously and the equipment and materials have to be monitored as well. Although this method is common used as it may be less costly than purchasing high end automated equipment but it has proven to have higher product failure rates due to human error and or inconsistencies, especially in large volume. The second part of this is volume. A manual solder joint takes about one to three seconds to make depending upon having a consistent temperature and the flux type used which must also be regularly cleaned and maintained.
Diode Selection
Diode selection is a key component in any LED luminaries application. This will determine life longevity, lumen output and color temperature consistency of your final product. It is vital for any successful company to have expertise in diode selecting. This selection method is called binning. The practice of binning is designed to maximize effective utilization in the production of LEDs. This process is most important for luminaries manufacturers to specify and control since it has serious implications on performance, cost and lead-time. It is also important as a point of general awareness for end-use customers so they understand how the manufacturing supply chain is ensuring high quality and consistency – specifically with regard to critical performance attributes such as light output and color.
Diode Selection02
As stated previously, there are several ways LEDs are binned. The most critical bin criteria that impact product performance are light output and color temperature. Binning for light output is a very straightforward linear function. LEDs are individually measured and sorted by lumen output into prescribed ranges. LED suppliers create their own standard set of lumen bins and provide clear information on the expected lumen performance of each of their bin ranges. So, luminaire manufacturers can easily select the bin (or set of bins) that best meets the lumen performance requirements of the fixture. Binning for color temperature is a more complex process.
NIT Output & Efficiency
LED light efficiency in signage is measured in terms of NIT level. NIT is the candela per square meter (cd/m2). A measure of light emitted per unit area, this unit is frequently used to specify the brightness of a display device. 1 nit= 1 cd/m2. The brightness of an LED sign is measured in NITS. With our proprietary heat sink technology we are able to offer a high brightness LED display without overdriving the LED’s.
Our Networking Solutions
Genoptic Smart Displays offers a wide variety of networking communication solutions, including desktop to desktop, Cat5 Ethernet or wireless WiFi to remote cell phone modem connections enabling access to upload media content for one or more LED displays via internet.

Cabinet Design & Weather Proofing
Genoptic Smart Displays takes pride in our craftsmanship and our advanced weather proofing designs including our proprietary WeatherPro® and Temperzone® technologies with IP65 and IP67 approved components. Originally engineered to withstand the harsh weather patterns of Calgary AB, Canada’s freezing cold winters with high moisture Chinooks to hot and dry summers our products have proven to withstand the harshest environments throughout the globe.
Testing Standards
Genoptic Smart Displays demands proper testing practices to ensure the highest quality components and lowest failure rates of our LED screens. We go through a rigorous 100+ point quality control inspections throughout the initial design to finished product which include pretesting for low and high heat dissipation/absorption levels, water pressure and moisture testing, vibration and durability testing, electrical monitoring/metering testing and software diagnostic configuration testing. Lower cost LED brands typically do not offer these testing reports and cannot validate their claims. Genoptic Smart Displays abides by these tests as a standard to verify our product offerings and to meet and exceed expectations.
Environmental
Genoptic Smart Displays is committed to helping our planet reduce emissions and energy consumption while also implementing low impact environmental safety standards throughout our factories with such LEAD accredited certifications as ISO9000-9001 compliance.
Certifications
Sometimes a deal is not as good as it can appear, bypassing proper certification can lead to catastrophic failure rates, fire & safety hazards and a tarnished reputations. All electrical products sold in North America are required to have one of cETLus, cULus or CSA, UL safety equivalent certification. There are currently many low tier LED sign products being sold that are not certified to the minimum Canadian/ U.S. standards. Governments are continually trying to improve the certification process and environment, seeking to ensure product quality and public safety through regulatory standards.
