Medical

Cover glass, touchscreen, and display solutions for improving the environmental compliance for patient monitoring, mobile display, and medical diagnostic applications.

Medical patient monitoring and imaging systems including displays, touchscreens, and electronics is a key Dontech market. We design and manufacture products for portable, operating room, patient hospital room, and diagnostic/testing environments.

Current applications include patient monitoring systems, ventilators, defibrillators, anesthesia, and imaging diagnostics equipment, with and without touch panels, for clinical patient monitoring, diagnostics, surgical, and emergency medical environments. We also provide ruggedized, higher performance versions of these products for military medical applications. Common enhancements include EMI/RFI shielding for displays and MRI rooms, washdown compliance/protective windows, and high ambient light readability for displays.

Solutions

Optical Filters

EMI/RFI shielding compliance and antiglare/antireflective for patient diagnostics and monitoring displays in patient and operating rooms to be integrated by our customers.

Enhanced Touchscreens

Custom touchscreens with high performance modifications including ruggedization, low reflection cover glass, and integrated EMI/RFI shielding for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) compliance.

Display Solutions

Brightness and contrast enhancement along with fully integrated optical filters and enhanced touchscreens for optical EMI/RFI shielding; optical bonding and washdown compliance.

How We Address Your Needs

Image quality and EMC compatibility are critical to both clinical and diagnostic integrity of patient care. Dontech’s solutions maintain or improve the optical characteristics and address a wide range of electrical, chemical, and mechanical performance standards. Dontech’s medical products are used to enhance the performance of electronic displays and touchscreens so that the display assembly can survive in high interference, high impact, bright light, and harsh washdown environments.

Dontech’s extensive in-house clean room manufacturing and metrology/testing capabilities enable us to control the performance driving variables tightly and uniquely, resulting in high reliability and reproducibility in our products. We often support no change products for well over 20 years, which avoids expensive, time-consuming re-qualifications for our customers. This also gives us the unique ability to support many legacy products such as CRTs and analog displays for their entire useful lifetimes.

 

Medical Precision Optics Solutions

Precision optics and assembly applications are a key Dontech medical market.  Dontech designs and manufactures precision optics for applications including imaging and sensing optical components and partial assemblies for the medical market.  See precision optics product page for more details.

Case Studies

Medical Display Application

Dontech worked with a medical customer to identify an option which met the EMC requirements, but also during the design, learned about an additional extensive wash-down compliance and wash-out issue.
