Why Choose a 21.5" Open Frame Touch Monitor?
A 21.5-inch display provides a practical balance between screen visibility and installation space. The Full HD 16:9 format offers enough display area for detailed user interfaces, dashboards and interactive content while remaining suitable for embedded equipment.
Combined with PCAP touch technology and an open frame construction, the display can be integrated into a wide range of commercial and industrial systems.
Large Interactive Display
More screen space for dashboards, menus, controls and user interfaces.
Space-Efficient Integration
The open frame format allows the touchscreen to become part of your equipment rather than a separate desktop monitor.
Built for OEM Applications
Suitable for system integrators, equipment manufacturers and custom touchscreen projects.
Is a 21.5" Touch Monitor Right for Your Application?
A 21.5-inch touch monitor is a good choice when your application needs more interactive screen space than a 15.6″ or 17″ display while maintaining a relatively compact footprint. It is particularly suitable for kiosks, self-service terminals, industrial control interfaces and retail systems where users need to view detailed content and interact directly with the screen.
