Protective screens and displays

Organic glass (PMMA, Plexiglass®, Groglass®) and other forms of protective screen is a transparent, thermoplastic material that is notable for great light transmission, long-life and resistance against UV rays. It is suitable for displays, screens and as a surface overlay.

Technical features

Material

organic glass (PMMA)

Durability
  • resistant against UV rays – doesn’t turn yellow
  • doesn’t change color/become deformed due to weather conditions
  • great chemical and mechanical durability against acids and alkalis
Display windows
  • significant visual advantage – optical cleanness
  • polished
  • matt
  • cut
  • tinted (diverse color filters)
Shape

the protective screen is easy to process, to cut out the required shape and to create various holes and openings.

Colors
  • match with the color of the case, frame, or other design elements
  • colors are mixed according to the PANTONE, CMYK, RAL scale
  • accuracy is attained by using calibrated PANTONE color scales and original recipes, as well as a colorimeter
Attachment
  • permanent pressure-sensitive glue and/or holes, openings for mechanical fastening
  • glues are selected considering the type of the surface and exploitation terms of the final product
  • common usage of 3M glues
Design elements

  • raised details, Braille
  • etc. options

Minimum batch size

prototype batch, starting from a single item

Advantages

  • Protective screens shield the equipment from dust, moisture, chemicals and are low maintenance.
  • Various options: displays with superb durability against abrasion; anti-reflective displays; displays of particular clarity.
  • In order to obtain excellent result, every case should be approached individually. Therefore, we pay thorough attention to the technical parameters of the screens and displays, exploitation conditions of the final product, its lifetime and the surface it will be attached to.
  • SILMOR latest technologies and equipment allows us to operatively carry out almost any visual and technical ideas.

FAQ

10–20 business days on average. It depends on:

  • whether it’s a new or recurrent order;
  • the size of the run;
  • whether you have a proper technical drawing or information on materials, dimensions, color codes and other technical data;
  • whether print file or layout in vector graphics (CDR, EPS vector PDF etc.) is available;
  • whether raw materials are in the warehouse or need to be ordered, and when is the delivery.

The lifetime mostly depends on two things:

  1. product exploitation conditions – whether it is indoors or outside; what is the cleaning routine of the device the display is attached to; exploitation intensity etc.;
  2. defined parameters, durability, lifetime of the used materials in data sheet.

After clarifying the exploitation terms of the product, we recommend the best solution. Generally, these are industrial glues, including selectively applied adhesives, and/or holes and openings for mechanical fastening.

The type of the glue will be recommended considering the chosen surface.

Yes, it can be drafted. In this case we suggest you order a prototype, test it and, if needed, we make adjustments before producing the final product.
