Rugged multi-touch for the harshest environments

 

Industrial applications place particularly high demands on touchscreens. They must function reliably even under extreme conditions such as dirt, moisture, high temperature fluctuations, and intensive mechanical stress. The rugged PCAP touchscreens (projected capacitive touchscreens) are specially designed for demanding industrial environments and offer maximum resistance and long-term reliability.

 

Maximum robustness and uncompromising performance

To optimally protect the sensitive touch sensors from external influences, robust multi-touch touchscreens are made of thermally hardened glass. Thanks to innovative technology, these touchscreens function flawlessly even under extreme conditions or with significant temperature fluctuations without compromising performance or service life.

The touchscreens recognize touches even through glass surfaces up to 20 mm thick or gloves, while at the same time being insensitive to non-conductive substances such as dust, oil, or water. This unique combination of robustness and precision makes them the perfect choice for industrial or outdoor applications.

 

Advantages at a glance:

  • Maximum durability: Rugged multi-touch touchscreens easily withstand water, oil, dust, and deep scratches.
  • High precision: Reliable operation with fingers, gloves, or conductive pens, even through thick glass.
  • Safety and reliability: Compliant with ATEX and HAZLOC standards for potentially explosive environments such as oil rigs and mines.
  • Certified protection classes: Sealed touch units comply with NEMA 4, 12, and IP65 or higher, ideal for dusty or wet environments.
  • Highest material quality: Use of thermally tempered, laminated glass and Corning® Gorilla® glass for excellent protection against vandalism and scratches.
  • Hygienic design: Antimicrobial surfaces and completely flat designs that are easy to clean minimize the risk of infection.
  • Flexible choice of materials: Functionality also available with polycarbonate or plastic surfaces, suitable for strictly regulated areas such as the food industry.
  • Customization options: Extensive customization options, including privacy filters, multi-color screen printing for branding, IR blocking filters for better heat management, and other special designs.

 

With our robust multi-touch solutions, we offer system designers and developers powerful, reliable, and customized solutions that deliver even in the most demanding environments.
