As a professional supplier of digital display systems, we can equip display systems with numerous additional features on request, such as touch extensions, audio components, cameras and various sensors. With the help of proximity sensors, a comparatively energy-saving operation of the entire system can be realised. Since the display is only activated when the integrated sensors register proximity by means of infrared or laser technology, significantly less energy is required than with convention-al display systems. Depending on the customer's requirements and the desired location, either short-range sensors (for short distances of less than 1m) or long-range sensors (for distances of up to 7m) can be used. The use of proximity sensors is advantageous both from an ecological point of view and with regard to energy efficiency assessment. In addition, they are also convincing from an economic point of view, since thanks to the overall low energy consumption, costs are saved and the service life of the system is increased.

Especially in the area of smart retail or for information and signage applications, proximity sensors, as well as our other expansion options, offer real added value.

In January, we extended our easyTOUCH product range by two new products: The easyTOUCH display eTD156W3202-INA-A featuring a 2mm tempered cover glass, a bonded SITO PCAP easyTOUCH and a Microchip USB controller board for easy connection to a HOST system. New is the Innolux Full-HD panel G156HCE-L01 with LVDS interface and 450nits brightness, which is airbonded to the touch component.

We also have a new product in our sensor section: In addition to the glas-based SITO sensor, we now also offer the foil sensor eTS101W1C7-S in the standard 10.1" size. The sensor is equipped with the ILI2511 and can be bonded to any custom/standard glass.

The integration of PCAP (projected capacitive) touch sensors into an overall system can often be challenging, since the housing design and the electronics are already defined in advance and the available installation space is often limited. In particular, the integration of the FPC flex-tail of a PCAP sensor is often a limiting factor. The so-called tail bonding, which we have implemented with the introduction of the SITO Touch, can provide a remedy here. The electrical connection between FPC and sensor is now made individually. For each SITO sensor, both standard passive and active flex-tails (COF) are available in different lengths and shapes. Mechanical collisions can thus be easily avoided without having to reattach the touch sensor. With two, partly fully automated, tailbonding machines, we offer a unique vertical range of manufacture and guarantee maximum flexibility for our customers.

As a leading partner of industrial display, touch, embedded and system technologies, we offer a wide range of in-house production and manufacturing methods. Our high vertical range of manufacture ensures that our product quality is continuously guaranteed. Especially in times of market-related material shortages, our independence from suppliers gives us operational and strategic advantages.

Already during the selection of a suitable touch panel we offer the possibility to combine different FPC tails with a SITO touch sensor (tail bonding). We can optically bond the touch sensors directly onto printed cover glasses by using various adhesive technologies. Thanks to the fully automated and camera-based pick-and-place process, bonded touch/cover glasses can be inserted into bezel with high precision. Production-related gaps can - if necessary - be filled by gap filling.

When using plastic frames, we have introduced a plasma activation process that cleans the surface to ensure better adhesion. Alternatively, frames can also be bonded by using the hot-melt process, which offers a cost advantage, especially for high-volume projects. The final assembly and testing of products manufactured by us is then carried out on our flexibly configurable production lines. All work steps are set up according to customer and product specifications, thus offering maximum control over the entire manufacturing process. From simple touch displays to complex complete systems including installation of customer-specific software - our customers receive everything from a single source.
