PCAP screens are ideal for HMI panels in factories due to their robustness and reliability. They are resistant to dust, dirt, and vibrations, which is crucial for the continuity of production processes and machine control in demanding environments.
Hygiene and sustainability are essential in the medical sector. Capacitive screens with a seamless glass surface are easy to clean and disinfect. They are used in diagnostic equipment, patient monitors, and control panels.
Interactive kiosks, self-service terminals, and POS systems require a long service life for intensive public use. PCAP technology offers the necessary wear resistance and an intuitive multi-touch experience for customers.
Touchscreens in ticket machines and information panels must be resistant to vandalism and changing weather conditions. The robust construction of industrial PCAP screens makes them ideal for these demanding public applications.
Reliability is often expressed in terms of Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF). Industrial PCAP screens have an MTBF of 30,000 to 50,000 hours, indicating a very long operational life, even with continuous 24/7 use.
Lifespan is affected by temperature, humidity, dust, and sunlight. High-quality screens are designed to function in extreme conditions and often have IP certification that provides protection against moisture and dirt ingress.
The quality of the glass, the ITO sensor layer, and the controller IC is crucial for durability. The use of high-quality materials and a robust construction prevents rapid wear and tear and guarantees longer and more stable operation.
Although PCAP screens have no moving parts, the intensity of use affects their lifespan. They are highly wear-resistant, but the brightness of the backlight may gradually decrease after thousands of hours of intensive use.
At Dytos, we understand that each industry has specific requirements for touch solutions. That's why we offer a wide range of products and services designed to meet these diverse needs.
