What are the advantages/differences of ceramic printing against organic printing?

Ceramic printed glass burns in the ink into the glass surface. This glass is suitable for extreme environmental conditions like outdoor.

Competences


What is the difference between a resistive and capacitive touchscreen?

A resistive touchscreen is based on a mechanical switching principle, two transparent conductive materials are pressed on each other for electrical contact and position. A capacitive touchscreen is based change of a capacitance value created by the operator's finger. The location of capacitance change will determine the touch position.

Projected capacitive touchscreens (PCAP)

Resistive Touchscreens


What is the maximum size of printed overlays and/or printed glass?
