In the fast-paced world of transportation, where information needs to be crystal clear and readily accessible, the choice of display technology can make all the difference. That’s where optical bonding comes into play. 

At Fortec US, we understand the unique demands of the transportation sector, and we recognize the importance of optical bonding in creating displays that can withstand high-traffic environments and harsh conditions, ensuring reliability and longevity.

Understanding Optical Bonding

Optical bonding is a cutting-edge technology that involves the application of a special adhesive layer between the display panel and the cover glass. This process eliminates the air gap between the two components, creating a single, solid unit. The result? Displays that are stronger, more durable, and highly resistant to the challenges posed by transportation environments.

The Importance of Optical Bonding in Transportation

Enhanced Durability

• Vandal Resistance: Transportation hubs are bustling with activity, and the risk of accidental impact or vandalism is ever-present. Optical bonding significantly increases the resilience of displays, making them more resistant to cracks and damage from external forces.
• Rugged Reliability: Displays featuring optical bonding are built to last, even in high-traffic areas. They are engineered to endure the constant wear and tear that transportation environments bring, from crowded train stations to busy airports.

Improved Visibility

• Reduced Reflections: In well-lit transportation hubs, reflections can often hinder visibility. Optical bonding reduces the reflections on the display’s surface, ensuring that crucial information remains visible even in direct sunlight or under bright indoor lighting.

Moisture and Dust Resistance

• Sealed Protection: The adhesive layer used in optical bonding acts as an additional barrier against moisture and dust infiltration. This protection is crucial in environments where changing weather conditions and dust are common.

Consistent Performance

• Prevents Fogging and Condensation: In temperature-variable environments, displays without optical bonding can suffer from fogging and condensation. Optical bonding eliminates the air gap, preventing these issues and ensuring consistent performance.

Enhanced Touchscreen Functionality

• Improved Touch Response: For displays with touch functionality, optical bonding enhances the accuracy and responsiveness of touch inputs, making user interactions smoother and more efficient.
