RAFI introduces TWIN TOUCH touchscreen control solutions
TWIN TOUCH is a touchscreen that detects capacitive touch inputs and also the pressure exerted on the panel. This feature prevents false inputs through external forces; it allows the implementation of additional input levels.

November 14, 2018 - RAFI presented its TWIN TOUCH touchscreen technology, touchscreen control solutions from the FLEXSCAPE program, and the expanded line of RAMO pushbuttons. In addition, RAFI showcased emergency stop pushbuttons for use in handheld remote control units that clearly signal their active or inactive state. As stipulated by DIN EN ISO 13850, inactive buttons do not have the appearance of safety devices.

TWIN TOUCH is a touchscreen that detects capacitive touch inputs and also the pressure exerted on the panel. This feature prevents false inputs through external forces; it allows the implementation of additional input levels. Pressure thresholds for input recognition can be set via software. The FLEXSCAPE input devices for integration in touchscreens also open up possibilities: the FLEXSCAPE ONE pushbutton is activated by touch, but is only switched when a certain pressure threshold is exceeded. Tactile feedback to confirm switching enables safe no-look operation.

FLEXSCAPE WHEEL is a finger guide that comes as a sticker, which can be attached to the glass surface.
