The joints or edges between two visible parts are particularly susceptible to the ingress of dirt, dust and external media. By potting these joint edges flush with the surface, the ingress of foreign bodies and substances can be effectively prevented. This not only ensures a clean and durable connection, but also enables a higher IP protection class to be achieved, which significantly increases resistance to environmental influences.
The anti-splinter film provides effective protection for glass front panels by preventing the glass from breaking and retaining dangerous splinters. This film not only increases safety, but can also significantly improve the shatter resistance of glass surfaces. In addition, it helps to reduce UV rays, which protects the interior from discoloration.
Glass fronts on HMIs offer a modern and user-friendly surface that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. They provide a clear view of displays while protecting them from dust and dirt. They are also easy to clean and contribute to the longevity of the device.
Front or decorative foils for HMIs offer a flexible and cost-effective solution for the user interface of devices. They are lightweight and can be produced in different designs and colors to enhance the user experience. In addition, films are resistant to environmental influences, which increases their longevity and functionality.
LOCA Bonding (Liquid Optically Clear Adhesive) is an advanced technology that enables a virtually bubble-free bond between displays and protective glass. By using liquid adhesive, excellent light transmission is achieved, which significantly improves image quality. This method also provides additional protection against shocks and vibrations, increasing the longevity of the devices.
OCA Bonding (Optically Clear Adhesive Bonding) is a technique that enables touch sensors and glass or film surfaces to be seamlessly bonded together, resulting in optimum visibility. This method reduces glare and improves colour intensity by minimizing the distance between the sensor and the cover. OCA bonding also provides effective protection against bumps and scratches, which increases the durability of the devices.
Touch sensors are innovative input devices that enable intuitive and user-friendly interaction with digital displays. They respond to touch and gestures, which considerably simplifies and speeds up the operation of devices. With various technologies such as capacitive and resistive sensors, they offer versatile application possibilities in numerous industries.

This method also provides additional protection against shocks and vibrations, increasing the longevity of the devices.
Air Gap Bonding is a bonding technique that creates an airtight connection between a display and a protective layer without the use of optical tape. This method reduces reflections and improves visibility by minimizing the gap between the two surfaces. It also allows for greater flexibility in the design, resulting in slimmer and lighter devices.
Displays are essential components of modern devices that present information visually and enable user-friendly interaction. They are used in a variety of technologies, such as LCD, OLED and LED, and offer different advantages in terms of image quality and energy efficiency. In addition, displays are available in various sizes and formats to meet the different requirements of applications.
Mechanical buttons are tried-and-tested operating elements that offer a precise and reliable user experience thanks to their tactile feedback. They are widely used in a variety of applications, e.g. in industrial control systems, and impress with their durability and robustness. Thanks to their individual design options, mechanical buttons can be optimally adapted to the specific requirements of the respective device.
The illumination of buttons and logos not only improves visibility in dark environments, but also gives devices an appealing aesthetic. By using LED technology, colors and brightness can be customized to create different user experiences. Illuminated buttons and logos also promote user-friendliness by making interaction more intuitive.
Capacitive buttons use the change in the electrical field to recognize touch, which enables responsive and user-friendly interaction. They offer a modern, elegant design as they are often flush-mounted and have no moving parts. This technology is particularly durable and resistant to wear and tear, which extends the life of the buttons.
Membrane processing for membrane keyboards includes various processes to optimize the functionality and aesthetics of the key surfaces. These include the cutting, printing and laminating of foils, which enable precise adaptation to the respective requirements. These processing techniques not only ensure improved haptics, but also a longer service life and durability of the keys.
Membrane keypads are a versatile and cost-effective solution for operating devices that are characterized by their flat design. They are made of flexible membrane materials that integrate both the keys and the underlying circuitry, which simplifies production. These keyboards offer high resistance to environmental influences, such as moisture and dust, and are therefore ideal for various applications.
Single board computers are central components in many electronic devices and serve as a platform for processing and controlling information. They integrate important functions such as processors, memory and interfaces to ensure efficient data processing. With their compact design, computer boards are ideal for applications in various industries, from automation technology to portable devices.
The assembly of printed circuit boards is an essential process in electronics production in which electronic components are precisely placed on a printed circuit board (PCB). Techniques such as automated SMD assembly enable fast and efficient placement, ensuring high accuracy and quality. These processes are crucial for the functionality and reliability of electronic devices in various applications.
Cables are indispensable components in electronics that ensure a reliable connection between different devices and systems. They are available in various designs and materials to meet different requirements in terms of current strength, data transmission and environmental conditions. High-quality cables make a decisive contribution to signal quality and the longevity of the entire installation.
Enclosures are crucial components in electronics that not only ensure the protection of internal components from external influences, but also influence the visual design of devices. They are available in various materials, such as metal or plastic, and can be individually designed to meet the specific requirements of a product. Enclosures also contribute to heat dissipation and electromagnetic shielding, which increases the performance and reliability of the devices.
Carrier plates are important elements in electronics that serve as a stable basis for the assembly of parts and components. They not only provide structural support, but also help with heat dissipation and electromagnetic shielding. With different materials and surface treatments, carrier plates can be adapted to specific requirements and environments.
