Medical & Healthcare Touch Screens Built for Clinical Use

PCAP touch sensors for medical devices, diagnostic equipment and hospital kiosks. Designed and manufactured in-house in Europe, they work with surgical gloves and through thick protective glass.

Healthcare touch screens designed for hygiene, precision and reliability

DISPLAX touchscreens are made for the specific needs of medical device manufacturers and healthcare facilities: accurate input with gloves, a continuous glass surface that is easy to disinfect, and long-term reliability for equipment that has to work every day.

Enhanced usability
Touchscreens offer a user-friendly and intuitive interface that allows healthcare professionals to easily navigate through menus, input data, and access critical information.

Real-time data access
Touchscreens enable healthcare professionals to access real-time data, such as patient records, test results, and vital signs, directly from the medical equipment.

Customization for specific needs
Each sensor is custom designed to your display size and format, from 7" to 75", and works with your choice of cover glass, from standard to laminated or curved.

Easy-to-clean medical touchscreen for infection control

Hygiene and Infection Control

PCAP touch sits behind a single, continuous glass surface: no buttons, gaps or crevices where bacteria can build up. With antimicrobial glass options and sealed, easy-to-clean surfaces, clinical staff can disinfect the whole interface in seconds, and the touch keeps working through protective glass up to 20 mm thick.

Integration with IoT and Connectivity

Seamless communication and data exchange with other medical devices, systems, and networks. This enables interoperability and data sharing, which can enhance the overall functionality and performance of medical equipment, leading to improved patient care outcomes.

Touch That Works with Surgical Gloves

DISPLAX touch controllers are tuned to detect touch through latex, nitrile and surgical gloves, so doctors, nurses and lab staff never need to remove them to operate a device. SKIN ZEETO also keeps working with heavier protective gloves.

Through Thick and Protective Glass

SKIN ZEETO works through glass up to 20 mm thick, including laminated and curved glass, so medical equipment can use tough, impact-resistant cover glass without losing touch accuracy (under 1 mm on a 15" screen with 4 mm glass).

FAQs

How is DISPLAX touch technology applied in Medical and Healthcare settings?

It is integrated into medical monitors, diagnostic equipment, patient check-in terminals, and surgical room displays.

Why choose PCAP touchscreens over mechanical buttons in medical devices?

Continuous PCAP glass eliminates crevices, preventing bacterial accumulation and allowing complete chemical disinfection.

Can medical personnel operate DISPLAX touchscreens while wearing surgical gloves?

Yes, DISPLAX controllers are tuned to detect touch through latex, nitrile and surgical gloves. SKIN ZEETO also works with heavier protective gloves and through glass up to 20 mm thick.

Do liquid spills or medical saline affect touch screen functionality?

No, built-in liquid rejection algorithms prevent accidental commands caused by fluid splashes on the glass surface. DISPLAX touch controllers filter out false touches caused by noise and water drops; SKIN ZEETO is designed to keep working under rain. For devices exposed to frequent splashes, our engineers tune the sensor and firmware to the application. Contact us to discuss your requirements.

Is touch precision accurate enough for manipulating medical images (e.g., X-Rays, CT scans)?

Yes, high-resolution touch reporting enables smooth pan, zoom, and precise anatomical measurement gestures on HD displays.

Does DISPLAX meet the reliability demands of healthcare applications?

Yes, DISPLAX designs and manufactures its sensors and controllers in-house in Portugal, Europe, under ISO 9001 quality control. Products are CE, FCC, RoHS and UKCA compliant, and the touch controller has a rated lifetime of 1 million hours.

Are DISPLAX touchscreens certified for medical devices (IEC 60601, ISO 13485)?

DISPLAX supplies touch components (sensors and controllers) that are CE, FCC, RoHS and UKCA compliant and made under ISO 9001. Medical certification such as IEC 60601 applies to the final medical device and is carried out by the device manufacturer. Our team supports integrators with the technical information they need for their certification process.

Can the touchscreen be cleaned with hospital disinfectants?

The touch sensor sits behind the cover glass, so cleaning only touches the glass surface. A continuous glass front, with no buttons or gaps, can be wiped with standard hospital disinfectants suitable for glass.

What sizes are available for medical touchscreens?

SKIN ZEETO covers 7" to 75" (custom designed for each display), MESH covers standard sizes from 22" to 86", and SKIN FIT covers large formats from 32".

Which operating systems are supported?

DISPLAX touch is standard USB HID, so it works with no drivers on Windows, Linux (Ubuntu), Android, macOS, ChromeOS and Raspberry Pi. SPI, I²C and serial interfaces are available on request for embedded devices.

What is the cost of a touch solution for medical and healthcare applications?

Pricing varies based on display size, touch configuration, glass and surface requirements, customisation and project volume. Specific integration and application requirements may also affect the final price. For detailed pricing or a project-specific quote, contact the DISPLAX sales team directly.
