Distec extends industrial offering with KOE TFT displays
Robust TFT displays from Kaohsiung Opto-Electronics (KOE), designed for harsh industrial environments are now available from TFT flat screen specialist, Distec.
Commenting on distribution signing, Leonhard Spiegl, product manager Components at Distec, said: “The wide range of high quality TFT displays perfectly complements our portfolio for demanding industrial environments”. He added “The long availability meets our demand for highest customer satisfaction and quality”.
KOE acquired the design, development and production of Hitachi’s small and medium-sized TFT displays in 2012. The distributor initially offers displays in sizes from 7.0 to 12.3 inches (177.8 to 312.42mm).
The robust displays are suitable for use in automation, industry 4.0, digital signage, public transport, agriculture and construction.
The TFT displays of the KOE Rugged+ series are resistant to vibration and shock and have a wide operating temperature range of -40 to +85 degrees C. They also offer high brightness and wide viewing angle with IPS technology for readability in bright ambient light and when viewed from the sides, says Distec.
The distributor has a selection of KOE TFT displays in stock and the entire KOE product range is available on request. Customised system integration is also possible.
