Transitioning from Zytronic to DISPLAX: A Seamless Shift to Future-Proof Touch  

DISPLAX Team  |  May 12, 2025  |  6min

Understanding PCAP Technology: The Standard for Modern Touchscreens

With Zytronic’s recent exit from the market, OEMs and integrators urgently seeking for a reliable projected capacitive (PCAP) touch solution provider to fill the gap. For years, Zytronic’s robust ZXY100 and ZXY500 touch controllers were the backbone of countless mission-critical applications.

Now, DISPLAX ZEETO stands out as the natural successor. It is mechanically identical to Zytronic’s controllers for seamless drop-in replacement and supports even greater glass thickness, delivering unmatched durability and future-proof performance. There is no spec or requirement from the past that DISPLAX is not able to replace.

DISPLAX emerges as the clear choice-combining nearly 15 years of market experience, European manufacturing excellence, and a relentless focus on R&D and customer support. This article explores why DISPLAX is not only the natural replacement for Zytronic but also the industry leader shaping the future of PCAP touch technology.

 A Legacy of Innovation and Reliability

DISPLAX has been at the forefront of PCAP touch technology since its inception. Over the past decade and a half, the company has built a reputation for delivering high-performance touch solutions for demanding environments-from factory floors and medical labs to public kiosks and interactive retail displays.

Key milestones in DISPLAX’s journey include:

  • Pioneering Large-Format PCAP: DISPLAX was among the first to bring ultra-large multitouch films to market, supporting screens up to 135 inches.

  • Expanding to All Sizes: With the launch of SKIN ZEETO, DISPLAX now addresses the full spectrum of touch applications, from compact 7-inch interfaces to expansive video walls.

  • Global Reach: DISPLAX solutions are deployed in over 50 countries, supported by a robust network of partners and distributors.

European Manufacturing, In-House Control

One of DISPLAX’s core strengths is its commitment to vertical integration. All R&D, engineering, and production take place in-house at its European facilities. This approach delivers several critical advantages:

  • Faster Lead Times: While Zytronic customers often faced 8 to 10-week or longer waits, DISPLAX typically delivers faster and if in film, in four weeks or less-even for custom projects.

  • Consistent Quality: Every product undergoes rigorous testing and quality control, meeting stringent European standards for reliability, safety, and environmental compliance.

  • Advanced Glass Customization: Building on this legacy, DISPLAX offers a comprehensive and flexible approach to glass customization for touch sensors.
    • Wider Range of Glass Types: DISPLAX provides extra-clear (low-iron), anti-glare, and mirror finishes, ensuring optimal optical clarity and minimal color distortion-ideal for medical and industrial displays. 
    • Greater Thickness Options: DISPLAX can customize glass thickness up to 20mm, exceeding standard industry offerings and ensuring exceptional durability for high-impact or outdoor environments.
    • Precision Machining & Shaping: DISPLAX delivers custom edge profiling, holes, slots, and even curved or uniquely shaped glass, supporting complex device integration and user-centric designs.
    • Lamination & Surface Treatments: We offer advanced lamination for multi-layered durability, as well as anti-reflective and anti-fingerprint coatings for enhanced performance in demanding settings.
    • Custom Graphics & Branding: DISPLAX can add screen-printed borders, logos, and colored graphics using highly durable ceramic inks-matching the most rugged and aesthetic requirements.
    • Tailored to Application: Whether it’s thick, vandal-resistant glass for public kiosks, ultra-clear glass for medical imaging, or shaped panels for next-gen interfaces, every DISPLAX glass panel is produced to tight quality standards for long-term reliability and optimal touch performance.

Why SKIN ZEETO is the Ideal Zytronic Successor

For businesses that have relied on Zytronic’s ZXY100 and ZXY500 small-format touch controllers, finding a new supplier can seem daunting. DISPLAX addresses this challenge directly with SKIN ZEETO, engineered for a seamless, worry-free transition.

  • Mechanically Identical Controller: SKIN ZEETO is designed with the exact same mechanical footprint and connector layout as Zytronic’s ZXY100 and ZXY500 controllers, ensuring a true drop-in replacement. This eliminates the need for costly redesigns or retooling, allowing you to upgrade without disrupting your manufacturing process.

  • Superior Performance: ZEETO delivers high-precision touch, advanced noise filtering, and robust support for thick glass-handling up to 20mm, which surpasses Zytronic’s capabilities. This makes it ideal for demanding industrial and medical environments where reliability and durability are non-negotiable.

  • Effortless Integration: With native Windows and Linux support, HID compliance, and familiar calibration tools, SKIN ZEETO ensures a smooth migration for existing Zytronic users. The included DISPLAX Connect software further streamlines setup and customization, making integration fast and intuitive.

  • Versatile Applications: Optimized for compact touchscreens from 7” to 32”, ZEETO is perfectly suited for industrial machinery, ATMs, lab and medical devices, vending machines, and self-service kiosks-the very markets where Zytronic built its reputation.

In short, SKIN ZEETO is not just a replacement-it’s a mechanical match and a technical upgrade, giving you confidence and continuity as you move forward.
