PCAP touchscreens are equipped with a network of electrodes (metal mesh, silver nanowire, ITO) that build up (project) an electromagnetic field that also reaches through protective glass. If this field changes at one point due to touch with a finger or a stylus, the touch position is calculated and forwarded to the controller. Drag & drop, zooming, rotating or scrolling using gesture control are also possible.

The glass surface makes PCAP touchscreens particularly scratch-resistant and can be cleaned with all cleaning agents – an important advantage in hygienically sensitive areas.

With special protective glass, the touchscreens are vandal-proof and can be used in public areas. The number of touch points can vary, however, depending on the thickness of the protective glass used. PCAP touchscreens are perfect for modern true flat designs, such as smartphones or tablet PCs, and thus ensure an attractive device design. We are also happy to offer you the touchscreens optically bonded as a unit with a protective glass and/or a TFT display.

We carry PCAP touchscreens from our own series and from DMC in sizes from 1.77″ to 86″ (4.5cm to 218.44cm).
