Cima NanoTech, Foxconn enter into joint venture

TAIWAN, August 25, 2015

Cima NanoTech, a developer and manufacturer of transparent conductive film solutions, has entered into a joint venture with Foxconn, a leading ICT technology provider and vertically integrated device manufacturer, to deliver the industry’s first cost-competitive, projected capacitive (pro-cap) solution for large format touch screens.

Both companies will sell SANTE ProTouch modules through Cima Touch, the company formed under this joint venture, said a statement from the company.

Foxconn’s expertise in the mass production of reliable, high-quality products, coupled with Cima NanoTech’s proprietary SANTE self-assembling nanoparticle technology, delivers a cost-competitive solution for customers looking to shift from infrared (IR) touch technology to pro-cap multi-touch solutions and systems, it said.

The modules provide users with ultra-fast response for an intuitive multi-user, multi-touch experience, making it an ideal solution for interactive digital signage, interactive kiosks, interactive table tops and interactive whiteboards.

The overall design and product appeal of the touch system is also enhanced with edge-to-edge cover lens and narrow bezel.

SANTE ProTouch modules are available in sizes ranging from 40” to 85”.

The non-moiré characteristic of SANTE self-assembling nanoparticle technology makes it compatible with all LCD display models in the market; the highly customisable nature of the modules also provides manufacturers and system integrators with the freedom to design features such as cover lens thickness, glass type and bezel width.

Jon Brodd, CEO of Cima NanoTech, said: “SANTE ProTouch modules will be manufactured at our newly established, state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.”

“Having a full, in-house supply chain for large format projected capacitive touch solutions is an industry first, and ensures that we have full control over the quality and reliability of SANTE ProTouch modules,” he added.

Kevin Chen, director of Foxconn Technology Group, said: “Cima NanoTech has a cutting-edge, disruptive technology which puts them at the forefront of high performance innovations.”

“Our partnership with Cima NanoTech enables us to break new ground and address the rapidly growing large format touch market,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
