Which material is suitable for user interfaces -
Glass, wood or metal?
The user interface forms the interface between man and machine and is therefore of central importance.
Choosing the right material for your user interface is crucial - it is not only the visual highlight, but also influences the functionality, durability and user-friendliness of the entire HMI system.
EVYTRA's focus is always on finding the right balance between robustness and functionality in order to optimally adapt your user interface to your needs. We prefer to create user interfaces Best in Glass, due to the outstanding material properties.
Contact us now and get started with a solution that is perfectly tailored to your needs!
Glass as a user interface - elegance, durability and functionality
Glass is our preferred choice for HMI applications, as it not only impresses with its elegant appearance, but also with its durability and ease of cleaning. It enables the seamless integration of precise touch technologies and offers a first-class user experience.
Another advantage of glass is its sustainability: it is fully recyclable and therefore contributes to environmentally friendly solutions. By using glass, we not only create aesthetically pleasing, but also robust and functional HMI surfaces that maintain their quality and performance over the years.
Thanks to these properties, glass is the ideal choice if you are looking for a durable, elegant and sustainable solution for your HMI application.
Wood as a user interface - natural aesthetics
Wood brings a natural, warm look to any HMI design and creates a pleasant atmosphere. It is particularly in demand in applications where extreme temperatures prevail, such as in a sauna, where the HMI surface must remain touchable even at extreme temperatures. In such scenarios, wood combines aesthetic advantages with practical properties. However, wood is less robust than other materials and is not compatible with all touch technologies.
For highly customized solutions, we are happy to combine glass touch with wooden touch elements to meet both functional and design requirements. In this way, we offer you the best of both worlds - natural warmth and state-of-the-art touch technology.
Metal as a user interface - robustness and safety for demanding applications
Metal, especially aluminum or stainless steel, is the perfect choice for HMI applications that require extreme durability. It is ideal for use in safety-critical areas where control panels must be indestructible.
Although metal is extremely durable and offers excellent protection against external influences, it can have certain limitations in terms of design freedom and does not optimally support all touch technologies. However, for applications where durability and resilience are key, metal remains an excellent choice.
