Touch screens ideal for harsh working environments

Densitron Display Solutions

DTS416 touch panels

Densitron has launched the DTS416 range of five-wire glass film glass analogue resistive touch panels for weather-, industrial- or instrument-grade touch display applications.

The combination of traditional resistive touch with the addition of a glass cover lens is said to offer a cost-competitive, hardened sensor for use with a gloved hand, in a wet or harsh working environment, or when a passive stylus is required.

The touch screens are said to work with thick gloves and when extremely wet, even with salt water.

Transparency is 80 per cent (typical); haze: 4.5 per cent; operating force < 100g; impact: 2.50 Dia.

Steel Ball/67g; height: 100cm; durability: 10M times (knock test); scratch-resistant hardness: 7Mohs; drift: repeated calibration typically necessary.

The touch panels work with a passive stylus in sizes from 5.7in to 12.1in standard; custom sizes are available on request.

The addition of a thin micro-sheet of glass bonded to the face of the film to the glass touch screen allows the Densitron DTS416 family of touch screens to offer 7Mohs scratch hardness, reducing scratches and abrasion.

This approach produces a cost-competitive glass-surfaced touch screen suitable to an array of applications.
