Industrial Monitor Solutions
Custom Industrial Monitor Solutions for Equipment Integration
UNI DISPLAY provides custom industrial monitor solutions for equipment manufacturers, automation system developers, engineering companies, and OEM/ODM customers. We integrate the TFT display, touch panel, cover lens, bonding, controller board, communication interfaces, cables, firmware and mechanical components into one complete industrial display solution developed around your machine.
An industrial monitor is designed as part of your equipment architecture — not treated as a standalone screen. From component selection and engineering development to prototyping, validation and production, the monitor is built around the requirements of your machine, control system and application.

- Optical bonding
- Controller board & interface

Built Around Your Equipment
An Industrial Monitor Should Fit the Equipment — Not the Other Way Around
Industrial equipment often requires more than a standard commercial monitor. The display may need to fit a specific housing, interface with an existing controller, support touch operation, meet defined mounting requirements, and operate as an integrated part of the final machine.
Your machine may already define the requirements
Selecting a monitor based only on screen size can create unnecessary integration work. UNI DISPLAY develops custom industrial monitors by evaluating the display, touch interface, electronics and mechanical requirements together — integrating the monitor into the final equipment architecture while minimizing redesign on your side.
- Fixed installation space
- Control cabinet or housing
- Defined panel opening
- Existing mainboard or controller
- Display and touch interfaces
- Cable-routing limitations
- Existing mechanical drawings
- Environmental requirements
Configurations for Different Equipment
Industrial Monitor Configurations for Different Equipment Types
Industrial equipment needs different monitor configurations depending on how the display is installed, operated and connected to the machine. UNI DISPLAY develops the industrial monitor based on the equipment architecture, user interface requirements, installation environment and control system.
Industrial Touch Screen Monitor
For machines and control systems requiring direct operator interaction, we develop an industrial touchscreen monitor integrating the TFT display, touch panel, cover lens, controller electronics and required interfaces. Touch configuration is selected from capacitive (PCAP) or resistive technology based on the operating method, equipment design and system requirements.
Custom Enclosed Industrial Monitor
For applications requiring a complete standalone display unit, we develop a custom enclosed industrial monitor based on the required appearance, installation method and equipment interface. Customization can include display configuration, touch or non-touch operation, custom housing, mounting structure, controller electronics, interface configuration, cable and connector arrangement, and surface treatment.
Open Frame Industrial Monitor
For equipment where the display must be installed directly into a machine, cabinet or control panel, an open frame configuration can be provided. The monitor is adapted to your available installation space, panel design and mounting requirements. For deeper mechanical integration, a dedicated custom open frame monitor solution can be developed from your equipment drawings.
Embedded Industrial Display
For equipment where the display operates as an internal subsystem rather than a complete monitor, an embedded display configuration can be provided. The TFT display, touch interface, controller electronics and connection system are developed based on your host platform and equipment architecture.
Industrial Display and Touch Screen Integrated Configuration
The design and selection of industrial display terminals must match the operator’s actual use and the equipment’s on-site installation — from screen size and resolution to brightness, orientation, viewing direction and viewing distance. Most industrial machine control and HMI scenarios require real-time, intuitive touch interaction.
UNI DISPLAY provides one-stop integrated solutions covering TFT display configuration and touch system adaptation. For outdoor or high-ambient-light environments we deploy high-brightness, sunlight-readable displays; for touch we support projected capacitive (PCAP) multi-touch with gloved operation and resistive touch for stylus input in dusty, humid or harsh conditions.

Engineering & Technology
Cover Lens, Surface Treatment and Optical Bonding
The front surface of an industrial monitor may need to meet the mechanical, appearance and operating requirements defined by the final equipment. UNI DISPLAY customizes the cover lens by outline dimensions, front-panel structure, touch area, equipment appearance, installation method and surface requirements.
Optical & Frame Bonding
Frame and optical bonding combine the TFT display, touch panel and cover lens into one coordinated front display assembly. Optical bonding removes the air gap to reduce reflections and improve contrast, sunlight readability and condensation resistance.
Controller Board & Electronics
Controller board integration, driver and scaler boards, interface electronics, plus PCB layout, Gerber files and PCBA development and production matched to your host system.
Communication & Protocol Adaptation
Display interfaces LVDS, eDP, MIPI, VGA, HDMI and DisplayPort can be adapted to your host system, with communication and protocol adaptation where required.
Software, Firmware & Operating Logic
Firmware configuration, communication protocol adaptation, operating-logic development and system debugging so hardware and software are developed together for deeper integration.
Controller Board and Interface Development
An industrial monitor must communicate reliably with the equipment’s host controller or system. UNI DISPLAY supports controller board and interface development based on the project architecture, adapting common display interfaces — LVDS, eDP, MIPI, VGA, HDMI and DisplayPort — to match the host system.
- Scaler board integration
- Driver board integration
- Communication interface adaptation
- Hardware system design
- Schematic design
- PCB layout
- Gerber file generation
- PCBA development and production
- Cable and connector adaptation
Firmware and System Communication
Some industrial display projects require more than a hardware connection — the monitor may need to communicate with a specific control system or follow defined operating logic. Based on project requirements, UNI DISPLAY can support communication interface adaptation, communication protocol adaptation, software development, firmware configuration, operating-logic development and system debugging, so hardware and software are developed together.
Built for the Machine Environment
Industrial Reliability and Environmental Requirements
Industrial equipment may operate under conditions that differ from standard consumer electronics — wider operating-temperature ranges, higher vibration and shock, and continuous 24/7 operation. The display system may run near control electronics, motors, power systems or communication equipment while meeting project-specific mechanical and environmental requirements.
Based on the project requirements and customer acceptance criteria, UNI DISPLAY can incorporate validation covering the areas below. Required test conditions and acceptance criteria should be confirmed from the final equipment, intended application and target market.
- Impact resistance
- Dust and water protection evaluation
- EMI testing
- EMC testing
- ESD testing
- Mechanical structure verification
- Display-function validation
- Touch-function validation
- Interface and communication testing
