Technology for Breakthrough Product Design
3M™ Multi-Touch System PCT2455PX
With more than 30 years of capacitive touch sensing and manufacturing
expertise, 3M has developed a purpose-built multi-touch system for
commercial applications that demand high-performance multi-touch
functionality with bezel-free designs that deliver a sleek and sophisticated
tablet-like industrial design for displays ranging from 15 to 24 inches. The
3M™ Multi-Touch System PCT2455PX, supported by the proprietary
3M™ Multi-Touch Controller PX5000, is based on projected capacitive
touch technology (PCAP) and supports up to 20 simultaneous touch
events with an ultra-fast response time of less than 10 milliseconds.
This industry-leading touch performance combined with modern design
elements, makes the PCT2455PX system an ideal solution for OEM's,
ODM's, and integrators looking to design and build breakthrough new
products that exceed their customer’s expectations.
Designed with commercial applications in mind, the PCT2455PX
system’s non-active, chemically-strengthened cover glass offers a
durable surface that protects the underlying conductive elements while
allowing the touchscreen to remain functional with even the most severe
surface scratches. This same cover glass is also given an anti-stiction and
an anti-glare treatment that helps provide an enhanced user experience
by limiting the effects of touch friction and ambient light pollution. In
addition to these functional benefits, the PCT2455PX system’s bezel-
less design helps OEM's bring the sleek, tablet-like industrial design
elements to their own devices by eliminating the need for bulky bezels
required by other touch technologies. These modern design techniques
are an ideal element for commercial display applications that require a
fresh, next-generation look and feel.
Benefit
• Touchscreen and electronics tuned for precise, full multi-touch functionality, even at the edges and
corners of the display
• Integrated standard systems offered from a single source ensures full system support and warranty
• Robust system solution tested to work with many display technologies provides integration and design flexibility
• Reports simultaneous multi-touch events while supporting palm rejection at speeds faster than the
refresh rate of many industrial displays
• High signal-to-noise ratio provides input flexibility including thin gloves and fingertips.
• Ultra-high definition touch for smooth draw capability and ability to distinguish multiple fingers in close proximity
• Custom ASIC design offers a standard protocol for any size between 15 and 24 inches and facilitates
seamless application development
• Enables leading edge industrial design solutions with a uniform narrow black border graphics design
• No surface components or bezel requirement limits debris build up which results in increased reliability
• Easy-to-clean, virtually "no wear" surface provides operation unaffected by surface scratches
• Smooth edge finish for improved durability and handling safety
• Anti-stiction surface allows for “easy drag feel” for smooth touch performance
• Anti-glare for table-top applications or strong ambient lighting environments
Recommended Applications
• Gaming and Amusement • Health Care
• Retail POS • Audio Visual
• Point of Information • Digital Signage
• Self Service • Retail Brand Experience
• Telepresence • Industrial
