What is an Industrial Touch Screen?

10.09.2023

For the touch screen, we all often see it. For example, our current mobile phone screen is a touch screen, and the bank's number calling machine is also a touch screen. So what is an industrial touch screen?

We can think that the industrial touch screen is only a detailed classification of the touch screen, and the touch screen is divided into industrial touch screen and general touch screen, which are divided into these two types.

Classification of Touch Screens

Universal touch screen

Universal touch screen is what we can often see, the number calling machine of the bank, or the current ATM is equipped with a touch screen, as well as the self-service registration machine of the hospital, etc., which belong to the universal touch screen, and most of their use environments are Ordinary environment.

Industrial touch screen

The biggest difference between industrial touch screens and general touch screens is that they are used in industrial environments, where environmental factors are more complex, such as in factories, high or low temperature, vibration, dust, etc., which will have a great impact on the performance of the touch screen. Therefore, it is used in For touch screens in special environments, products with high performance and good protection should be used. This is our commonly used industrial touch screen.

Introduction of Industrial Touch Screen

Let's first understand the industrial touch screen. The industrial touch screen is used in a special environment and is the carrier of the human-machine interface. Usually we call the industrial touch screen HMI (Human Machine Interface) human-machine interface. It is the information interaction between the system and the user. medium that transforms information into a form acceptable to humans.

Types of Industrial Touch Screens

In fact, the touch screen is mainly divided into two categories, one is the touch screen embedded in the windows system, and the other is the embedded manufacturer integrated touch screen.

The touch screen embedded in the Windows system is actually a computer, but the mouse and keyboard of the computer are cancelled, and the screen is made into a touch form. This touch screen is embedded in the Windows system, and the actual operation is the same as other computers. , you can also install various software, in fact, the mouse and keyboard are concentrated on the screen. If this kind of touch screen wants to do industrial monitoring, monitor the relevant parameters of the equipment, and display the process engineering, it needs to install the configuration software. This configuration software is the same as other software we usually install on the computer. , we can choose to automatically start the configuration software when the system is turned on. The specific functions need to be set in the software and computer.

Manufacturer-integrated touch screen This kind of touch screen is independently developed by the manufacturer and is not embedded in the Windows system. It directly integrates the configuration software with the touch screen. This kind of touch screen is a commonly used device for industrial control. It is generally smaller and more stable to use because the touch screen The system is actually this software, instead of installing another software based on the Windows system, so it is more stable. For programming, you need to use the manufacturer's dedicated programming software to operate, and major manufacturers have their own programming software. .

For the touch screen, it is a human-computer interaction tool that we use. When we choose it, we need to select the corresponding equipment according to the site environment and the requirements of Party A, according to the project situation. The purpose is the same, but according to the specific to choose the appropriate equipment.
