Complete solutions tailored to your specific requirements
custom designs
Standard displays don’t always cut it. That’s why we offer a full suite of enhancements. These upgrades improve readability, durability, and performance, so your display works exactly how and where you need it to.
RELEC’s 40 years of expertise in displays means we are able to offer not just components, but complete solutions tailored to your specific requirements. These might include the addition of a bespoke cover lens, with custom graphics and additional switching capabilities.
We also offer a range of ultra rugged monitors. Aimed at the extremely harsh environment market, RELEC can provide monitors sealed from IP65 through IP67, IP68 and even IP69K. Truly meeting these specifications is a difficult requirement but every single monitor built is subjected to testing to the required rating ensuring that when installing in typically high value applications the user can have confidence that the monitor will perform as required.
Enhancement Films
Enhancement films are applied to improve the optical performance of a display in challenging lighting conditions. Options such as anti-glare (AG), anti-reflective (AR) and circular polarising films reduce surface reflections, increase contrast and enhance readability in high ambient light environments.
These films can be specified to suit indoor, outdoor or high-brightness applications, helping maintain image clarity without increasing backlight power consumption.
Optical Bonding
TFT LCDs are susceptible to glare and reflection from either bright light or direct sunlight. This can be dramatically improved by optical bonding.
In almost all displays there is an air gap between the TFT panel and the cover lens. This causes refraction in each level: cover lens, air gap and TFT panel.
Optical bonding is where an optical compound is inserted in the air gap between the cover glass and the TFT LCD, creating a single level of refraction.
Surface Treatments
Surface treatments provide mechanical and environmental protection while maintaining touch sensitivity and visual quality. Coatings such as anti-fingerprint (AF), anti-bacterial (AB), hard-coat and EMI shielding treatments improve durability, reduce smudging and support compliance in electrically sensitive environments.
When integrated into a bonded display stack, these treatments enhance long-term reliability in industrial, transport and infrastructure applications.
Custom Cover Lens
Available across our entire TFT range, RELEC offers a custom cover lens service. This can be included on any of our products, with or without a touch panel. Suitable when specific mounting methods are required, or custom graphics / logos.
The custom cover lens can include the following:
- Cover lens material of either glass or PMMA
- Custom design, size and shape
- Printing graphics in multiple colours (i.e. custom logo)
- Apertures for other connections (i.e. USB sockets or mechanical switches)
- Thick & strengthened cover for rugged & harsh environments
- An array of capacitive switches
- Optical bonding
Backlights
Specifying the correct backlight for your TFT display is as important as choosing right resolution or signal interface. The range of ambient light levels in your application will determine the brightness of the backlight and Relec can help with a variety of options over and above our standard TFT panels:
- Addition of extra LEDS
- Use of high brightness LEDS
- Long life LEDS for high reliability applications
- Built in PWM LED driver circuits for dimming / brightness control
Relec Electronics can supply very high brightness backlight panels up to 2000 cd/m² for marine and other outdoor applications. Our display experts are available to talk you through specifying the optimum backlight for your TFT display.
mounting frames
Relec Electronics are delighted to announce the availability of metal mounting frames from Digiwise, for its TFT and HDMI displays with or without integrated touch panels.
The mounting frames are available for all sizes and with no MOQs or NRE / tooling setup charges.
The mounting frames provide a quick and easy method to mount a TFT display inside an enclosure. A TFT Mounting frame reduces development resource and gets products to market in the shortest possible time. The mounting frames also help to shorten the assembly time (cost saving) by providing a simple and reliable method for installation.
Made from a durable steel material, the frames provide additional support and resistance to shock and vibration. Digiwise are able to create frames with an in-house Numerical Control Turret press (NCT) process, making them suitable for fast prototypes and shorter production runs.
