OEM / ODM Custom-Cut Bar LCD Solutions | Any Size, Any Ratio
From 8" strips to 80"+ ultra-wide bars: we cut, seal, drive and integrate the display your project actually needs.
Stop designing your product around standard 16:9 panels. Send us your target dimensions, and we will engineer the display to fit.
Why Bar-Type Displays, and Why Custom-Cut?
Demand for stretched and bar-type LCDs is growing fast in places where a standard TV-shaped screen does not fit:
Retail: shelf-edge strips, aisle-end headers, promotional bars
Transportation: bus, metro, train and elevator information displays
Hospitality and F&B: menu boards, drive-thru strips, status bars
Industrial and control: ticker bars, machine status displays, control-room information strips
Smart devices and kiosks: vending machine headers, EV charger screens, smart-home panels
Automotive and marine: dashboards and instrument clusters
Stock bar panels come in a limited set of sizes. When your enclosure, shelf or dashboard has a fixed opening, a near-fit wastes space or forces costly mechanical redesign. Custom cutting gives you the exact width, height and aspect ratio in one step, using mass-produced, proven mother panels. That means lower cost and shorter lead times than a fully new panel development.
What We Offer

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you cut to any size?We can cut to virtually any bar dimension that fits within the usable area of a suitable mother panel, provided the cut line avoids the driver routing and TFT array area. Our engineers will confirm feasibility for your exact size before you commit to any cost.
Will a cut panel be as reliable as a standard one?With proper edge grinding and UV sealing, cut panels pass industrial-grade environmental tests. We validate every project against a documented test plan before mass production.
How do you prevent light leakage at the cut edge?Backlight, frame and light-shielding are redesigned for the new outline, and edge zones are checked for leakage, color shift and Mura.
Can you supply the complete display unit, not just the panel?Yes. We offer panel-only, panel-plus-board kits, and complete ODM units with housing and firmware.
Do you support small trial orders?Yes. We support 20-piece prototype runs so you can validate before committing to volume.
Are my drawings protected?We sign NDAs on request and never share customer designs.

Custom Cutting Engineering: Your Questions, Answered
Cut-bar panels raise legitimate engineering concerns. This is how we handle them.
1. Process Feasibility and Cutting Method
| Topic | Our Approach |
|---|---|
| Cutting method | Mechanical scribe-and-break with diamond wheel for straight cuts and standard tolerances; ultra-fast laser cutting where tighter edge quality or complex contours are required. We recommend the method after reviewing your drawing. |
| Size tolerance | Standard ±0.2 mm; tighter tolerance on request after feasibility review. |
| Gate/Source routing and TFT array | Each cut line is verified against the panel's Gate/Source fan-out and active-area layout, keeping a safe margin from the TFT array and driver traces. Cut position is fixed before any glass is processed. |
| Information needed from you | Target outline drawing (DXF/DWG/PDF), required active area and resolution, mounting and bezel constraints, and interface preference. Panel layout data is handled on our side. |
| Edge quality | Post-cut edges are ground and inspected under microscope. Chip and micro-crack limits follow the approved inspection standard; typical acceptance is chipping ≤ 0.3 mm and no cracks extending toward the active area. |
2. Reliability and Edge Sealing
| Topic | Our Approach |
|---|---|
| Re-sealing process | The exposed cell edge is sealed with UV-cured sealant applied by automated dispensing, then cured and inspected. This protects against liquid crystal leakage and moisture ingress. |
| Reliability testing | Cut modules are validated against industrial-grade test plans (below). Reports available for each project. |
| Optical performance | Edge zones are checked for light leakage, color shift and Mura. Bezel and light-shielding tape design are matched to the cut edge to keep the visible area uniform. |
Typical validation plan for cut modules
| Test | Condition (typical) | Duration / Cycles |
|---|---|---|
| High-temperature storage | 70 °C | 240 h |
| Low-temperature storage | −20 °C | 240 h |
| High-temperature, high-humidity | 60 °C / 90% RH | 240 h |
| Thermal shock | −20 °C ↔ 70 °C, 30 min dwell | 100 cycles |
| Vibration | 10–500 Hz, packaged | Per ISTA-2A |
| Drop (packaged) | 1 m onto hard surface | Per ISTA-2A |
Pass criterion: no leakage, no functional failure, no visible degradation of edge sealing or display uniformity. Contact us for baseline data from similar cut-panel projects.
3. Cost, Yield and Lead Time
| Topic | Details |
|---|---|
| NRE / engineering fee | Quoted per project based on drawing complexity, tooling and validation scope. Fee is refundable against volume orders. |
| Sample lead time (20 pcs) | Approx. 3–4 weeks after drawing approval and NRE payment. |
| Mass production lead time | Approx. 6–8 weeks after sample sign-off. |
| Expected mass-production yield | Target ≥ 95% at the cutting-and-sealing stage for straight-cut bar formats, confirmed by pilot run data. |
| MOQ | Standard HT386HBM: 10 pcs. Custom-cut versions: 100 pcs (lower volumes available for evaluation). |
