From Resistive to Capacitive: The HMI Upgrade

For years, industrial HMI panels used resistive touch technology, reliable, but limited to single-touch input with a stylus-like interaction. Modern Cermate HMIs now feature Projected Capacitive (PCAP) multi-touch panels, enabling the intuitive gestures operators are already familiar with from smartphones and tablets.

What Multi-Touch Enables

Pinch-to-zoom, operators can zoom into trend charts, P&ID diagrams, and process graphics without navigating menus
Swipe navigation, faster screen transitions and page navigation
Two-finger gestures, safer accidental-touch prevention (two-finger confirmation for critical commands)
Glove operation, PCAP panels can be tuned for use with industrial gloves

Programming Multi-Touch in EasyBuilder Pro

EasyBuilder Pro's latest version supports multi-touch gesture programming, assign pinch, zoom, swipe, and rotate actions to specific screens and objects. No extra licensing or hardware modification required.

Available Screen Sizes

Cermate multi-touch HMIs are available in 7", 10.1", 12.1", and 15" screen sizes. Contact TSL Automation Solutions for model selection and pricing.

Często zadawane pytania

A multi-touch industrial HMI uses PCAP (Projected Capacitive) touch technology supporting simultaneous recognition of multiple touch points and gestures, pinch-to-zoom, swipe, and two-finger rotation. This allows operators to interact with process screens more intuitively, zoom into trend charts, and navigate multi-screen applications with smartphone-like gesture fluency.

Standard PCAP touch requires skin contact and does not work reliably with standard rubber or latex gloves. However, Cermate multi-touch HMIs support enhanced PCAP sensitivity modes that work with thin cotton gloves or specific glove types. For heavy industrial gloves (thick rubber, leather), resistive touch models remain the correct choice. Confirm glove compatibility with the specific Cermate model before specifying.

Multi-touch enables pinch-to-zoom on trend charts and P&ID diagrams, swipe navigation between process screens, and more intuitive operator interaction that reduces training time. It also supports gesture-based password entry for quick operator login. For control rooms and supervisory stations with complex process screens, multi-touch significantly improves operator efficiency.

Cermate multi-touch HMIs support the full 300+ PLC driver library, including Siemens, Mitsubishi, Delta, Omron, Allen-Bradley, Schneider, and all Modbus devices. The multi-touch capability is a display interface feature; PLC connectivity and programming remain identical to standard Cermate HMI models.
