What Is a Standard LCD with Custom Cover Lens?

A standard LCD with custom cover lens pairs proven off-the-shelf TFT modules (e.g., 3.5″-10.1″) with custom-cut cover glass using CDTech’s patented 2nd Cutting technology from 2017. This “middle ground” slashes NRE by 80%, enables branded shapes/2.5D edges, OCA bonding for sunlight readability, and low MOQ—ideal for industrial/automotive OEMs with full certifications and 391+ SKUs.

Check: When Should You Choose Custom vs. Standard LCD Displays?

Why Choose Standard Modules with Custom Glass?

Standard modules with custom glass balance cost and reliability by using CDTech’s 391+ proven TFT SKUs (-30°C~+85°C, RGB/LVDS/MIPI interfaces) while adding branded glass shapes without full-custom NRE risks. It solves high costs and long lead times, delivering unique looks like logos or 2.5D edges in weeks. CDTech’s $30M+ 2023 sales to 1,000+ customers and quad certifications ensure quality.

How Does CDTech’s Patented 2nd Cutting Enable Custom Shapes?

CDTech’s 2017-patented 2nd Cutting technology repurposes standard TFT modules for unique cover lens sizes and shapes, reducing integration time by 80% versus traditional methods. It enables custom shaped cover lens LCD with 2.5D edges on reliable bases, supported by full in-house production in a 10,000㎡ factory with 3,500㎡ Class 1000 clean rooms.

What Are the Key Benefits of OCA Bonding in Custom Glass Modules?

OCA bonding in custom glass modules eliminates air gaps for superior sunlight readability, reduced glare, and enhanced durability in harsh environments. It pairs seamlessly with TFT LCD custom cover lens on standard modules, improving touch response and optics on products like S035HQ55EN-FC37 (3.5″ IPS, 850 nits, OCA bonded).
