Resistive Touch Screen for CNC control use explained.





Resistive Touch Screens are preferred for CNC control console use since they don't false trigger like capacitive touch screens with dust and dirt on them.

Resistive Touch Screens are harder to find as the home/office market for touch screens has gone to multipoint capacitive technology which is less than ideal for a dusty dirty machine shop.

You have to look hard to find a good resistive touch screen, we recently bought this one 1920x1080 unit which is available in 21 and 24" sizes and it works well so i wanted to share this link. We do not make any money off of this link. Just posting as a courtesy to Centroid CNC control users who might be looking for a good touch screen to use on their CNC project.
