Banks view ATMs as a way to increase their contact with existing customers, enhance opportunities for cross-selling, and meet the convenience needs of time-challenged clients.

As the complexity of services provided by ATMs increases, the need to replace buttons with a touch interface becomes stronger. Companies deploying ATMs realize they need technology that will not require adjustments once deployed. The calibration stability and durability of Elo's IntelliTouch and SecureTouch surface wave touchscreens meet that need superbly. Even scratches that would disable other touch technologies do not affect the performance of the surface wave products.

Elo rear-mount touchmonitors for ATMs are the industry's first sealed touchmonitors designed specifically for ATM applications. With a custom-designed chassis and sealed bezel surface, versatile Elo rear-mount touchmonitors integrate easily into your ATM design. The touchmonitor can be mounted from its front or base, eliminating the need to specify and purchase brackets and supports. Elo also maintains fixed outside dimensions of the rear-mount touchmonitor reducing the chance you will need to redesign your ATM around a monitor component change.

ATM touchmonitors are available with a host of touch technologies. Surface wave is the most widely used touch technology for ATM applications. If the application is CRT based, iTouch touch-on-tube technology provides the best set of features, including superior optical and image quality along with resistance to scratches, breakage and vandalism. For LCD products, IntelliTouch overlay touchscreens are widely used. SecureTouch technology provides an additional measure of resistance to breakage and vandalism because of its tempered glass construction. CarrollTouch infrared technology is the best choice for outdoor ATMs that may be exposed to harsh weather conditions and may require the combination of watertight sealing, optical performance and vandal resistance. Also, CarrollTouch infrared technology can be provided with several custom options including tempered glass, laminated bullet proof glass, privacy filters, and more.

Elo also provides a broad array of custom touchmonitor and touchcomputer manufacturing services. Elo's Custom Solutions are a great resource for your specialized touch requirements.
