"While the demand for rugged touch screen products for industrial applications continues to grow, truly rugged touch screens that can not only survive, but excel, in extremely harsh and hazardous environments remain hard to find," said Jim Ciardella, president of Dolch. "As a rugged solution provider to some of the largest manufacturing companies in the world, Dolch understands the challenges they face. We've developed a new line of industrial touch screen displays and workstations designed for the worst environments. These touch screens are designed for high-pressure caustic wash downs. Scratches, gouges, even deep cuts won't effect the functionality of these touch screens and I challenge anyone to find a touch screen interface that is tougher and more reliable than our RuggedTouch." The RuggedTouch is available with 12", 15" and 18" LCD displays. Bezel The front cover of a desktop or tower computer case.
