LCD clusters have become a staple in modern vehicles, replacing traditional analog gauges with versatile digital displays. They offer a wealth of benefits in terms of functionality, customisation, and aesthetics.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) clusters are digital screens that display crucial vehicle information to the driver. They replace traditional mechanical gauges like speedometers, tachometers, fuel gauges, and odometers with electronic representations.
LCD clusters can display a wider range of information compared to analog gauges, including:
-
- Vehicle speed, engine RPM, fuel level, and coolant temperature
- Navigation instructions
- Trip information (mileage, fuel economy, etc.)
- Warning messages and system alerts
- Infotainment system data
Customisation and Flexibility:
- Configurable Layouts: Drivers can often customise the cluster layout to prioritise the information they want to see.
- Multiple Display Modes: Different display modes can be offered for various driving conditions (e.g., eco mode, sport mode).
- Theming and Personalisation: Some systems allow for personalised themes and colour schemes.
- Improved Aesthetics: LCD clusters offer a modern and high-tech look, enhancing the vehicle’s interior.
Increased Safety:
- Clearer Visibility: Digital displays can be designed for optimal readability in various lighting conditions.
- Prioritised Information: Important warnings and alerts can be prominently displayed to grab the driver’s attention.
- Reduced Driver Distraction: By consolidating information into a single display, LCD clusters can help reduce driver distraction.
- Integration with Advanced Systems: LCD clusters can seamlessly integrate with other vehicle systems, such as Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), navigation systems and infotainment systems.
Nuline is one of largest suppliers of custom developed LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) modules for the automotive industry in India. The LCD modules are developed as per customer specifications for 2 Wheeler and 4 wheeler instrument clusters and for various other displays in the industry.
We meet the most stringent specifications for automotive industry applications like high temperatures, humidity variations and withstanding vibration. Our LCDs have been tested on various operational parameters like wide viewing angle, high contrast, uniform light intensity and colour.
The LCD panels are produced using technology like Twisted Nematic (TN), High Twisted Nematic (HTN), Super Twisted Nematic (STN), Enhanced Background TN (EBTN), Film compensated STN (FSTN), Advanced STN (ASTN), TN with dye fluid and others. Products include free shaping for dashboard, speedometer, mileage counter, climate control system, car audio, clock, etc.
The LCD modules are available in different versions such as Chip On Board (COB), Chip On Glass (COG), Chip On Foil (COF) and Tape Automatic Bonding (TAB) with integrated controllers and drivers.
We also ensure state-of-the-art display formats that include mono and colour TFT (thin-film transistor) modules for high-resolution needs. Other graphics and segment displays are available in standard and customised variants.
