27 inch infrared touch frame
27 inch frames mostly end up in interactive tables and showroom plinths, mounted flat with the glass laid on top. Above 27 inch we add a centre stiffener so the extrusion does not bow once the frame is horizontal.
FOB Shenzhen, frame only, 1–50 pcs. Add $28 for 3 mm tempered glass. Volume tiers quoted on request.
The 27 inch, photographed before packing
Every unit is powered up and touched at nine points before it goes into the tube. At 624 mm wide the finished frame weighs about 3.4 kg, which is why it travels in a tube with foam ends rather than a flat carton.
- 624 × 366 mm outer, 598 × 336 mm active area
- 2–40 touch points, USB HID, no driver for Windows, Android or Linux
- 374 pcs in stock, leaves in 3–7 days
Spare LED tubes. Tubes and filter strips are stocked for every size listed, so a dead emitter is a part swap rather than a new frame.
Ships knocked down. Four extrusions and four corners in one tube. Flat-packed freight runs about a third cheaper than a crated assembled frame.
What the 27 inch frame fits
The active area is 598 × 336 mm — a standard 27 inch 16:9 panel. The frame adds 13 mm on three sides and 19 mm at the bottom, which is where the controller PCB and USB cable sit.
- Outer frame: 624 × 366 mm, 9.5 mm deep
- Housing cut-out: leave 628 × 370 mm plus 3 mm clearance for the cable
- Glass clearance: up to 5 mm thick; 8 mm with the wide-gap version
- Mounting: front-flush with M3 inserts, or side brackets
Typical builds at this size: interactive table, showroom plinth, retail demo unit.
27 inch frame — options and unit price
Indicative FOB Shenzhen prices at 10-point configuration. Higher touch counts add controller cost, not sensor cost, so the jump is smaller than most buyers expect.

What happens after the carton is open
A frame is not finished hardware until it is calibrated against the display it sits on. Three things ship with this size to get you there, and none of them are extras.
No driver, on any system
USB HID digitizer. Windows 10/11, Android, Linux and ChromeOS enumerate it without installing anything. macOS reports single point only — worth knowing before you commit.
Calibration tool and profile
Windows and Linux builds, 4/9/25-point runs, written to the controller so it survives a power cycle. Stuck? A ten-minute remote session with our engineer calibrates it with you.
Installation sheet for this size
Clearance, 0.5 N·m torque, ground under 4 Ω, 3 m passive USB limit — plus the symptom table that covers most first-install problems.

IR frame, infrared touch screen, overlay — the same part
Older drawings call this an IR overlay or simply a touch overlay: a frame that drops over an existing display without touching it. That is exactly the behaviour here — no bonding, no new firmware, no change to the LCD you already qualified. It is also the reason an infrared frame is the cheapest way to add touch to a product that is already in production.
Worth saying plainly: this frame does not need the display to be a touchscreen model, and it does not care what brand the TV is. It sits outside the glass and reads a finger through it. That is why a 2015 monitor and a 2024 signage panel take the same part.
If your enquiry uses a name not listed here, send it anyway — a photo of the old part or the housing opening settles it faster than any glossary. Full terminology list →
