LWT-185O Touch Screen Open Frame Design Monitors Caltron Industries


The LWT-185O, Tailored to Meet the Needs of Your Application


The engineers at Caltron Industries understand how important it is for a business to have choices when it comes to designing touch screen interface applications.
That’s why they’ve built plenty of options into the LWT-185O series of touchscreen monitors. In today’s competitive economy, Caltron’s array of powerful and state of the art touchscreen monitor applications can fit in most any product interface application.

The LWT-185O, an 18.5” touchscreen, with a base model that already features outstanding visual display quality, also offers an optical bonding option that brings the user experience to another level. With optical bonding, a glass cover is laminated onto the LCD panel, then cured. The process greatly reduces glare and accumulation of moisture and dust, improving the clarity of the display.

Caltron also includes standard features that make the LWT-185O’s high-definition display easy to view under a range of lighting conditions:

• Wide viewing angles of 170 degrees left to right and 160 degrees top to bottom. The latest in Caltron’s line of widescreen commercial widescreen monitors has a 16:9 aspect ratio.

• LED enhanced backlighting, particularly useful in low-light conditions. Additional benefits to this type of enhanced backlighting: Unlike cold cathode fluorescent lamp-sourced backlighting, our LED backlighting employs no harmful mercury gas, and is more energy-efficient. A business can expect power savings of up to 20 percent with the HWT-185O.

• Brightness of up to 300 nits (light intensity units)

Choose from Two Types of Advanced Touch Technology

Design engineers can further customize the LWT-185O with a choice of touch technology, depending on the application:

• Five-wire resistive, which responds to the precision touch of a finger, either bare or gloved, and a stylus-like object. Resistive is typically found in PCs and navigation applications. Benefits of this touch technology are its lower cost and energy efficiency.

• Projected capacitive, also known as P-Cap. This technology enables a user to manipulate an image by using more than one finger at once. P-Cap is often found in smartphones. P-Cap is also scratch-resistant, making it a good choice for screens that are used 24/7.

The LWT-185O’s Additional Value-Added Options

• A privacy filter that renders the display difficult to see for anyone not directly in front of the monitor.

• Zero brightness control, another energy-saver.

• Durable anti-vandal switches.

• Extra HDMI and analog audio inputs.

HWT-121O 12.1” Touch Screen Open Frame Monitors | Caltron Industries 510-440-1800

12-in sunlight readable widescreen industrial monitor

The HWT-121O, for Easy Viewing in Bright Light

With a display that is easily viewed even in bright sunlight, the HWT-121O touchscreen monitor can be used in a wide variety of outdoor applications.

The outdoor display of the HWT-121O is comparable to that of a similar monitor under indoor lighting conditions. Caltron Industries achieves this outstanding display visibility by equipping the HWT-121O with:

An LCD panel with a brightness of up to 1,000 nits, a measure of light intensity. Typical 12.1-inch indoor displays are around 250 nits.

Optical bonding, which is optional with the HWT-121O. The optical bonding process seals a treated glass panel to the display to cut down on reflected light, as well as block out dust and moisture, without increasing energy consumption.

Sensor software that automatically adjusts display brightness according to ambient light.

State-of-the-art brightness enhancement that reduces energy use by as much as 20 percent while eliminating the implementation of harmful mercury vapor, a feature of conventional CCFL backlighting.

The HWT-121O and companion models HWT-121OR and HWT-121OC continue a strong tradition of quality 12.1-inch touchscreen monitors manufactured by Caltron Industries. The 12.1 was among the earliest monitors built by the company.

As Caltron engineers made improvements over the years, our 12.1-inch touchscreen monitors became ubiquitous in banking, aerospace, military, and especially kiosk applications. A 12.1-inch touchscreen monitor introduced by Caltron Industries in 2015 also became popular for indoor use.

The outdoor version of that product, the HWT-121O takes display technology to a higher level.

A Touchscreen Monitor Designed for the Outdoors

Readability under bright conditions is just one reason the HWT-121O is well-suited for outdoor use.

The touchscreen monitor is also ruggedly built to withstand near-constant use. A 2mm-thick metal tray provides solid support for the LCD panel.

Optional tough “anti-vandal” glass provides additional protection from rough usage and the elements, including scratches, temperature fluctuations, and humidity.

Two Touch Options for the HWT-121O

Caltron offers two touch options for the HWT-121O, depending on how the monitor will be used:

Projected capacitive. Common in personal devices such as smartphones, P-Cap responds to the conductivity of the human body. Displays can be manipulated using a finger, or several fingers.

Resistive single-touch responds to the touch of a finger and also a gloved finger or stylus. It costs a bit less than other touch technologies.

Optical Bonding Boosts Touchscreen Monitor Visibility | Caltron Industries

Optical Bonding Boosts Visibility of Touchscreen Monitors, Anywhere

Optical bonding is the process by which a thin pane of glass is sealed onto the display screen of a monitor. The glass is coated to be anti-reflective and fastened into place implementing one of the several technologies, including the use of silicon adhesive.

The result is greatly increased display visibility under virtually all types of conditions, including outdoor applications that are exposed to the sun and other weather elements. Before optical bonding, monitor displays were often difficult to view due to reflected sunlight or ambient artificial light, accumulation of dust, or condensation.

Users were compelled to block the light in some manner or frequently wipe the display clean in order to be able to read the screen or conduct transactions.

No longer. With optical bonding, the displays on Caltron Industries’ touchscreen monitors are consistently easy to see. As the use of Human Machine Interface, or HMI, technology becomes more prevalent, customers will increasingly expect the clear, high-contrast computer graphic displays that optical bonding provides.

Optical bonding provides an airtight seal between display and enclosure. With this gap eliminated, condensation and dust no longer obstruct the user’s view of the display.

Caltron Industries’ touchscreen monitors with optical bonding are ideal for use under all types of conditions, outdoors or indoors, regardless of application. In some cases, display readability is boosted by as much as 400 percent.

We offer optical bonding on our entire line of industrial LCD touchscreen monitors. The concept works equally well on all monitor sizes, including our 24-inch touchscreen.

Other Benefits of Optical Bonding

In addition to reducing reflected light and blocking out dust and moisture, optical bonding offers these benefits:

• Durable protection. Touchscreen monitor displays are able to resist scratches, cracks, and spills that can happen during prolonged periods of heavy use.

• Zero increased energy consumption.

• Enhanced shock and vibration resistance, important in particularly volatile applications such as those for the military or aerospace. Strong adhesives used in the bonding process ensure there is virtually no chance the glass will become separated from the display.

• Superior heat dissipation. Because the air gap is eliminated, heat is easily released through the top glass.

• Reduced electromagnetic interference, when the glass is equipped with EMI filters.

Useful in a Variety of Applications

Applications for which optical bonding industrial monitor is useful:

• Locations with high humidity, including arboretums or theme parks.

• Outdoor information kiosks.

• Drive-thru locations, where dust and dirt are common.

• Anywhere direct sunlight is a challenge.

High Definition 21.5” Touchscreen Monitor Line, Improved Visibility | Caltron Ind.


Caltron’s High-Definition LWT-215O Touch Screen Monitor Line Features Improved Visibility

New 21.5-inch Touchscreen Models Offer Resistive Touch Technology and Open-frame Design

A choice of touch technologies and an open-frame design make Caltron Industries’ new 21.5” LWT-215O series the most versatile industrial touchscreen monitor available today.

Caltron has incorporated projected capacitive touch technology, found in today’s smart phones, into the LWT-215OC. P-Cap offers sharp images, a rugged screen that holds up well when used continually or when temperatures fluctuate, and “multi-touch capability,” in which images can be controlled by using more than one finger.

The LWT-215OC also allows for more than one person to use the screen at the same time, ideal for collaborative uses.

A companion model, the LWT-215OR, implements resistive touch technology, which responds to any object, including the finger or stylus. Resistive touch is cheaper, consumes less energy and is preferable when users must wear gloves, such as with medical applications.

These wide touchscreen monitors are particularly suited for additional applications that include:
ATMs
Gaming machines
Vending machines
Digital signage
Kiosks
Aviation simulation
Medical equipment

Caltron’s familiar open-frame concept, which simplifies installation into existing systems, makes possible the LWT-215O series’ wide range of uses.

The 21.5 inch touchscreen of the LWT-215O is slightly smaller than Caltron’s discontinued 22-inch touchscreen, but has improved visibility for users. Jim Wang, president of Caltron Industries, says, “The boost in resolution from 1680x1050 to 1920x1080 results in the LWT-215O being a real HD panel. Viewing angles are wider, too.”

Wang also said that all LWT-215O models offer LED backlighting, environmentally superior to conventional cold cathode fluorescent lamp illumination. CCFL consumes more energy and employs mercury, found to be harmful to humans.

Another energy-saving feature is the elimination of noisy fans. In the LWT-215O, heat is ventilated through slots in the metal chassis.

Caltron’s products can be ordered by contacting Caltron directly at 510-440-1800.

How To Select Resistive, PCAP or SAW Touch Technologies


Industrial touchscreen technology has advanced to provide many different options.


5-Wire Resistive Touch Screen Technology


5-Wire Resistive Touch Screen Technology represents a revolution in the industry of touch screens. Technology can sometimes be vulnerable to environmental conditions such as liquid spills, humidity, wash down. Users get an increase in reliability and durability, protecting against these hazards, plus longer product life for their touchscreen. 5-Wire Resistive touch screen panels technology leads the pack in contamination-resistant components with drift-free operation capable of more than 35 million finger touches.

Resistive LCD industrial touchscreen technology consists of a glass (or similar material) panel coated with electrically conductive and resistive layers. Each layer is separated by invisible separator dots. Activated LCD touchscreens displays have an electrical current traveling through the screen, casting a net across the monitor face. Any applied pressure from touching pushes the layers together, generating an electrical current change which registers a command.

Reliable touch screen technology resists environmental changes, meaning that no recalibration is necessary for precise functionality. The most practical of touch screen technologies are resistive-type touch screens; their durability has earned them the reputation as the “workhorse of touch screen technologies.” The overwhelming popularity of this type of touch screen technology demonstrates its reliability and durability under a variety of extreme conditions.

Surface Acoustic Wave Touch Screen Technology


SAW Touch Screen Technology uses ultrasonic wave technology over the touch panel. Acoustic waves travel across the panel with a series of transducers and reflectors, creating an invisible grid across the screen. The waves are broken when a finger pushes on the touchscreen. Industrial touchscreen technology detects the particular location, sending the position data to the controller for processing. If the sensor detects a link, an action is launched -- like clicking a mouse. SAW Touch Screen Technology panels are the most advanced touch screen technologies available but are susceptible to environmental damage.

Made entirely of glass, there are no layers to wear down, giving SAW the highest durability and clarity available. SAW touchscreen technology is ideal for medical applications, touch displays, kiosks, computer-based training, or other high-traffic indoor environments. Also, this touch screen technology requires the use of a glass layer, making it potentially unavailable for all LCD panels.

Projected Capacitive Touch Screen Technology


A Projected Capacitive Touch has the ability to enable multi-touch that Resistive and SAW touch technologies are unable to achieve. Since this glass has multi-touch capabilities, the touch function works a bit differently. The touch glass is embedded with transparent electrode films with an IC chip that creates a three-dimensional electrostatic field. When a finger touches the screen, the electrical currents change. The computer can then detect the touch points to determine the location touched. Projected Capacitive touch screens are clearer than surface capacitive touch glasses. This type of glass is more scratch resistant than that of Surface Capacitive touch glass and has the multi-touch capability.

Traditional consumer grade PCAP has some downsides, including sensitivity to EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) or RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). Activation can only be done with a bare finger or with thin gloves on. Those shortcomings have been improved on our industrial PCAP touch technology.

Go here to find all touchscreen technology display monitors Caltron provides.
