Touchscreens based on various technologies

Interelectronix offers the possibility to develop customer-specific touchscreens based on different technologies, materials and superstructures.

The ability to individually determine the structure of a touchscreen opens up the possibility of developing both resistive and capacitive touchscreens that are optimally adapted to the respective requirements.

PCAP with different surface structures

As standard, we use microglass surfaces for our PCAP touchscreens that have proven themselves optimally in terms of reliability, durability and multi-touch functionality.

Optionally, however, we also offer the possibility of a polyester surface.

In general, however, we recommend glass surfaces, as they are characterized by the best optical properties and extreme resistance to abrasion or scratches.

"Our PCAP touchscreens made of laminated glass or extra chemically hardened glass are a tried and tested alternative to polyester surfaces. By using shatterproof glass surfaces, we guarantee optimum robustness and safety even in applications that are at risk of breakage." Christian Kühn, Glass Film Glass Technology Expert
Only in the case of applications that are very prone to breakage, such as handhelds, do we recommend the use of a structure using polyester films.

GFG or even more stable?

The top layer of our GFG glass film glass touch screens is a very thin glass. Despite its thickness of only 0.1 mm, this glass is very impact-resistant, scratch-resistant and waterproof. In this way, we combine the advantages of resistive, pressure-based technology with the advantages of glass.

Interelectronix offers the glass film glass construction as a 4-wire or 5-wire resistive touch screen.

Touchscreens for special requirements

For applications in a harsh working environment, a special, chemically tempered glass can be used, which makes the touchscreen considerably more stable and even more impact-resistant.

If a touchscreen is subject to special requirements for impact resistance, a structure with an increased glass thickness is recommended. Chemically tempered glass is also used in this setup, but it is considerably thicker and therefore even more stable.

Such "thicker" solutions are even more robust and predestined for applications in public use, such as ticket vending machines.

Another area of application for thicker glass surfaces are mobile applications such as handhelds or tablet PCs, which must also be particularly resistant due to a higher risk of falling. Despite the higher glass thickness, the weight does not increase significantly.
