Background and Challenge
With the growing adoption of EVs (electric vehicles), the installation of rapid chargers at highway service areas (SA), parking areas (PA), and public facilities is rapidly increasing. However, conventional display panels have faced issues such as degraded display quality due to weather and environmental changes, which have hindered user convenience.
Operational Instability Due to Environmental Changes
Reduced LCD response speed and display quality during extreme temperatures in summer and winter.
Deteriorated operability during rainy weather
Touch panel malfunctions when raindrops adhere to the screen.
Concerns about long-term supply
While infrastructure equipment is expected to operate for over 10 years, there is a risk of key components being discontinued (production ended).
Reasons for Selection
Wide operating temperature range
TFT supports -20℃ to 70℃, and VFD supports -40℃ to 85℃, specifications capable of withstanding Japan's severe seasonal temperature fluctuations.
Touch panel preventing malfunctions when wet
Designed for outdoor use in rainy conditions, featuring proprietary touch sensitivity adjustment technology enabling accurate operation even with water droplets on the panel surface or while wearing gloves.
Long-term stable supply system
Specialized for industrial equipment, ensuring reliable, ongoing procurement of identical specification products for future maintenance.
