Train ticket vending machine

Reliable touchscreens for train ticket vending machines

In recent years, ticket counters at the railway have been continuously dismantled and replaced with kiosks with easy-to-understand touchscreen input fields, so-called POS (Point of Sales). Rail customers have now become accustomed to this simple and fast self-service method when purchasing tickets and have accepted the changeover thanks to the easy-to-understand method of touchscreen input.

##ULTRA GFG or PCAP for train ticket vending machines

As a supplier of railway ticket vending machines, Interelectronix has established itself with two technologies of different modes of operation. We produce optimally matched touchscreens that meet all the requirements of the area of application and are adapted to customer requirements.

Our ULTRA GFG and PCAP touchscreens are available in different sizes and different designs, material variants and finishes are available to choose from.

##Hohe Resilience and Resilience

Like all publicly accessible applications, train ticket vending machines are particularly at risk of damage. Improper operation, dirt and vandalism are factors that should be taken into account, which is why a scratch-resistant, impact-resistant and detergent-resistant surface of the touchscreen is extremely important. For our ULTRA GFG and PCAP touchscreens, we use different types of glass with different degrees of hardness, which guarantee extreme resistance and protect the touchscreen from damage.

When selecting the right technology and the appropriate finishes, the installation location of the machine is also important. Train ticket vending machines in station halls are naturally less exposed to risks than vending machines on the outdoor tracks.

We recommend our projected capacitive touchscreens for indoor applications. This innovative touchscreen technology inspires users with multi-touch and the most precise touch recognition without the use of force. PCAP touch screens are extremely resistant due to the glass surface and have a very long service life.

The weatherproof and robust projected capacitive touchscreens can also be used outdoors, but Interelectronix recommends using our patented ULTRA touchscreen for outdoor train ticket machines. This is not only designed for the most extreme conditions in terms of weather, resistance and waterproofness, but also has a significant advantage over outdoor PCAP due to the pressure-based sensor technology. The ability to operate the touchscreen with thick gloves is an absolute must for user-friendly applications in winter, which the PCAP touchscreen can unfortunately only guarantee to a limited extent.

With competence, many years of experience and customer-oriented development, Interelectronix will find the right solution for you and produce customer-specific, high-quality and cost-effective touchscreens in small and large series.
