The advantages of vandal proof capacitive touch screen (IK10) in the public transportation sector primarily lie in their ultra-high impact resistance rating, vandal resistance, and ability to withstand harsh environments, making them ideal for meeting the high-intensity and high-security requirements of public transportation. The following are the specific reasons:
1. IK10 ultra-high impact resistance rating (vandal proof, anti-break)
IK10 is the highest protection rating (EN/IEC 62262 standard), capable of withstanding an impact of 20 joules (equivalent to a 5kg object dropped from a height of 40cm), while conventional touchscreens typically only achieve IK04-IK05 (with weaker impact resistance).
Vandal-proof and resistant to malicious damage: Public transportation equipment (such as subways and bus stations) is prone to human-caused damage (such as kicking or hammering). IK10 screens effectively prevent shattering or malfunction.
Vandal proof glass structure: Even under strong impact, the glass will not shatter, ensuring passenger safety and meeting public transportation safety standards.
2. Exceptional durability, reducing maintenance costs
Public transportation equipment is used extremely frequently (e.g., ticket machines and information terminals undergo thousands of operations daily). The IK10 touch screen uses tempered glass, capable of withstanding severe impacts, vibrations, and even malicious damage (e.g., striking or scratching), with a lifespan far exceeding that of ordinary screens.
Reduced maintenance frequency: Conventional touch screens are prone to damage under frequent impacts, while the IK10 touch screen can operate stably over the long term, reducing operational costs.
