17″ Resistive Touch PC (N3350)

The Resistive Touch PC line from Faytech distinguishes out from the competition thanks to its fanless operation, sturdy aluminum casing, and reliable VESA 100 fixation bolts.

The touch PC is powered by the Apollo Lake mainboard from Faytech.
The Intel® Celeron® N3350 DualCore CPU, clocked at up to 2.40 GHz, powers it. This version has a 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD, and an HD Graphics chipset from Intel that supports Full HD, DirectX 11.1 and OpenGL 4.0.

These Faytech PCs are ideal for a range of uses, including POS systems, industrial control panels, kiosk systems, office/residence automation, digital signs, and places like shopping centers, schools, hotels, and many more.

Potential Use Case Scenarios

Faytech Resistive Touch PCs are an ideal solution for tough work environments and complex scenarios, such as in Point of Sales (POS), operations rooms, industrialization, manufacturing facilities, digital signage displays, and much more.

As for Resistive Touch Monitors, the Faytech Resistive Touch PC series is a great solution to optimize workspaces in industrial setups such as factories and manufacturing centers. Our Resistive Touch PCs stand out among the competition with their sturdy aluminum housing and anti-glare front panel with 3H hardness. Thanks to these features, our Resistive Touch PCs can endure tough environments for a prolonged time. The Resistive PCs manufactured by Faytech come in six different sizes (8”, 10”, 12.1”, 15”, 17” and 19”), all of them quite small, which allows these devices to fit into tiny areas in a smooth way.

A potential use scenario could be for manufacturing centers using automatization systems and software. In such a configuration, multiple Resistive Touch PCs could be chained together to control a production line and provide monitoring options for the machinery and process involved. Such an application is very common in production plants that have automated their operations. Again, the small size of our Resistive Touch PCs, along with the fact that they are manufactured using aluminum housings with no moving parts, makes them even better for use in such industrial settings, where security is critical.

Faytech Industrial Resistive Touch PCs are designed for a wide variety of use case scenarios.

In the military space, the main advantage of those devices is that they can be used in a broad range of temperatures, from -10°C to +60°C. Military organizations will also greatly benefit from the fanless silent operation of these PCs.

In avionics, such Touch PCs are appreciated thanks to the Resistive technology used, which allows for precise interactions with the PC system and the touchscreen. Indeed, Resistive Touch Screen responds to pressure applied on the screen, while Capacitive Touch Monitors react to the capacitance of the human body. Resistive touch displays are made of a minimum of two flexible layers (usually made with polycarbonate) laid on top of a glass underlayer. A resistive substance covers these top sheets and they are then separated by mini dots between the sheets. When a resistive touch display is pressed, these layers are pushed towards each other and produce resistance on both a vertical and a horizontal axis. The resistance change induced is registered by the resistive sensors located at every corner of the touch screen as a touch signal. While it is true that Capacitive Touch Monitors have come a long way in preventing accidental taps, Resistive Touch Monitors remain more secure in that regard, in that they are less likely to trigger an accidental input on the screen.

In the mining industry, Resistive Touch PCs are commonly found thanks to their resilient and durable processing. All our Resistive touch PC are powered by the Apollo Lake mainboard from Faytech.
The Intel® Celeron® N3350 DualCore CPU, clocked at up to 2.40 GHz, powers them. This version has a 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD, and an HD Graphics chipset from Intel that supports Full HD, DirectX 11.1 and OpenGL 4.0. All in all, these characteristics make for extremely sturdy and long-lasting devices.

The same goes for engineering applications, in which it is essential to possess an industrial-grade device that can withstand extreme environmental conditions during its whole lifetime.

Our Resistive Touch PCs can also be used in some nautical applications, as water-resistant customizations are available. In these use case scenarios, the advantage of a Resistive Touch PC is that it relies on Resistive Touch technology, where the touch inputs come from pressure on the front panel. It would be difficult to use a Capacitive Touch PC in such applications, given that water could hinder the screen’s ability to register touches.

Faytech Resistive Touch PCs are used in the medical field too, where it is common to use a stylus or gloved hands to interact with the touch screen. On a Capacitive Touch PC, it would be harder to use the screen with a pen or gloves, given that these screens mainly react to capacitance from the human body.

Food processing enterprises would greatly benefit from the liquid-resistant feature of our Resistive Touch PCs. Indeed, thanks to the Resistive technology used on these PCs, a drop of water, liquid, or grease will not trigger an accidental input.

Faytech Resistive Touch Screen PCs can also be used in the scientific, manufacturing, and logistics industries among others, where the precision allowed by the touch screen technology will prove very helpful.

It is also extremely frequent to find such Resistive Touch PCs on ATMs given that these devices are easy to integrate into other systems. More noticeable even is the introduction of Resistive Touch PCs into check-in kiosks in airports, allowing passengers to check-in by themselves, saving a considerable amount of time for themselves and the working staff. Not only these Resistive Touch PCs can be used in airports, but it is also possible to install them in other transport areas, such as train or subway stations, or even bus stops.

As said earlier, Resistive Touch PCs can be used with pens or gloves, or nearly any object. This is necessary for certain industries where it could be dangerous to operate a device without wearing gloves, or also in sealed settings. This makes Resistive Touch PCs most advantageous in automatization and industrial settings, which would benefit the most from the Resistive technology features.

Worth noting, capacitive touch screens usually suffer more from interaction with surface contaminants, cleaning chemicals, and extreme heat, while Resistive Touch PCs can withstand such outputs more easily. This also explains why it is frequent to use Resistive devices on the industrial floor.
