Protection that blends in with the surroundings

The required protection class depends on the location of use and the operating conditions. Key factors include dust, water, cleaning procedures, and the system’s integration into a machine or plant.

When cleaning is part of the process

Washdown areas place special demands on enclosures, connectors, and materials. Sealed stainless steel enclosures allow touch systems to be used even during intensive cleaning processes.

Typical Applications

Food and Beverage Industry

Production, processing, and bottling often require regular cleaning. Protected touchscreen systems enable operation, visualization, and data collection directly in the production area.

Pharmaceutical Industry

In production areas with strict hygiene requirements, enclosed touch systems facilitate equipment operation, process visualization, and the collection of production data.

Machinery and Plant Engineering

Dust, coolant, or moisture can place increased demands on control devices. IP-rated touchscreen PCs and monitors can be integrated directly into machines and systems.

Designed for industrial use

When it comes to protected touch systems, there is more to consider than just the protection rating. Usability, readability, mechanical stability, and integration into a machine or system determine how reliably the system functions in everyday use.

Industrial Operation

PCAP touch technology enables precise operation and, depending on the configuration, can be optimized for use with industrial gloves. Optical bonding further improves the display's readability and stability.

Good readability in bright ambient light

Displays with brightness levels of up to 1,000 cd/m² and optical bonding ensure good readability in bright production areas and in applications with varying lighting conditions.

Standard or Custom

Display size, computing platform, interfaces, firmware, and housing can be customized depending on the project. This allows touch systems to be tailored to the machine, the application, and the planned lifecycle.
