Touch Screen Manufacturing

Manufacturing of Digital Resistive and Analog Resistive Touch Screens

Digital Resistive Touch Screens

These are an easy interface with a controller as a conventional matrix keyboard and popular when finger-sized touch zones are required.<

Analog Resistive Touch Screens

These are designed for “pen recognition” applications or other situations where a higher resolution is required. Technomark supplies both 4-wire and 5-wire Analog Touch Screens.

In addition to superior durability and reliability, Technomark Touch Screens feature:

  • Input flexibility: finger, stylus, pen, credit card
  • FPC tail technology that surpasses competitors
  • Lower-resistant film, more flexible than PET or ITO
  • Excellent optical performance, even with anti-glare hard coating film
  • Haze <6%, the best optical performance in the industry
  • Capabilities to handle .035mm space dots, the smallest in the industry
  • Anti-Newton ring, anti-glare, anti-reflection, special chemical hard coating
  • Various choices of surface treatments

Touch Screens, Touch Panels and Touch Screen Panels

These switches are display overlays which have the ability to display and receive information on the same screen. The effect of such overlays allows a display to be used as an input device, removing the keyboard and/or the mouse as the primary input device for interacting with the display’s content. Such displays can be attached to computers or, as terminals, to networks. Touch screens also have assisted in recent changes in the PDA and Cell-Phone Industries, making these devices more usable.

With the growing acceptance of many kinds of products with an integral touch screen interface the marginal cost of touch screen technology is routinely absorbed into the products that incorporate it and is effectively eliminated. As typically occurs with any technology, touch screen hardware and software has sufficiently matured and been perfected over more than three decades to the point where its reliability is unassailable. As such, touch screen displays are found today in airplanes, automobiles, gaming consoles, machine control systems, appliances and handheld display devices of every kind.

Touch screens have become commonplace since the invention of the electronic touch interface in 1971. They have become familiar in retail settings, on point of sale systems, on appliances, on ATMs and on PDAs where a stylus is sometimes used to manipulate the GUI and to enter data. The popularity of smart phones, PDAs, portable game consoles and many types of information appliances is driving the demand for, and the acceptance of, touch screens.

Touch Screen Popularity

Touch screens are popular in heavy industry and in other situations, such as museum displays or room automation, where keyboards and mice do not allow a satisfactory, intuitive, rapid, or accurate interaction by the user with the display’s content.

Touch Screen History

Historically, the touch screen sensor and its accompanying controller-based firmware have been made available by a wide array of after-market system integrators and not by display, chip or motherboard manufacturers. With time, however, display manufacturers and System On Chip (SOC) manufacturers worldwide have acknowledged the trend toward acceptance of touch screens as a highly desirable user interface component and have begun to integrate touch screen functionality into the fundamental design of their products.
