In the industrial world, one tap can trigger critical operations. Choosing the right touchscreen—capacitive or resistive—can determine whether your equipment performs smoothly or fails under pressure. From dusty factories to gloved hands, FlyLucky’s industrial-grade LCD modules support both touch technologies to fit your exact environment.
| Feature | Capacitive Touch | Resistive Touch |
|---|---|---|
| ✋ Glove/Wet Operation | Limited unless tuned | Excellent with gloves, wet, or dirty hands |
| 🔧 Durability | Strong glass surface, scratch resistant | Softer surface, prone to wear |
| ⚙️ Operating Principle | Electric field-based | Pressure-sensitive layers |
| 💡 Display Clarity | Higher clarity, no air gap | Slightly lower clarity due to overlay |
| 🔌 Power Consumption | Lower in modern designs | Slightly higher due to pressure detection |
| 💰 Cost | Slightly higher | Economical for low-cost industrial terminals |
Capacitive Touch uses electrical signals from your finger to detect position. It’s sensitive, fast, and ideal for multi-touch and gesture UI. However, it may struggle with gloves or moisture unless specially tuned.
Resistive Touch relies on pressure. Two conductive layers register a touch when pressed together. It works with gloves, pens, or anything—even with water or oil on the screen.
FlyLucky supports G+G, G+F, and Resistive Film configurations to fit any touch demand—dry, wet, glove, or stylus.
Our touch LCD modules operate stably from –30°C to +85°C, ideal for outdoor, factory, and automotive applications.
Optical bonding reduces reflection, improves durability, and enhances touch accuracy, especially in bright or vibrating environments.
From SPI to I2C to USB touch controllers—we integrate seamlessly with industrial PCs, HMIs, and embedded boards.
