Dedicated to manufacturing industrial grade touchscreen and cover glass products, Liyitec is headquartered in the Guishan Industrial District, northern Taiwan, with two factories to satisfy customer's one-stop shopping requirements - from font-end process such as glass cutting, polishing, surface treatment, to back-end process such as touch screen module manufacturing and lamination.With its major customers in Japan, Europe, the US and Taiwan, Liyitec's products cater to various areas - industrial , automotive, aviation, marine navigation, medical, educational, outdoor digital signage and gaming applications - to meet the demand of highly customized needs for different kinds of customer. The development of industrial products is different from that of consumer ones. In order to ensure the reliability and quality, the design, manufacturing and validation of industrial products are much more stringent and complicated, taking much longer than those for consumer products. All these efforts ensure that once the product is designed-in, it will be more difficult to be replaced by competitions. Although industrial products are usually characterized by clients placing orders of lower quantities compared to those for consumer devices, the orders are longer-term and more stable. Being able to provide long-term support and reliable products are important responsibilities and missions of a manufacturer who dedicates to industrial products. These are main reasons why Liyitec has been able to sustain its business for 30 years, accumulating so many long-term partnerships with customers.The products of Liyitec are touch screen modules and cover glasses. They can be divided into flat type, curve type and profile-cut type. Products are sized from 5-inch for handheld device to 65-inch for outdoor digital signage or white board. Liyitec has its own production team equipped with cutting and CNC machine to satisfy automotive customer's profile-cutting demand. It is worth mentioning that, for the automotive industry, outdoor digital signage and gaming industry, in order to create high added value, more and more diverse products, including curved products, are starting to appear in the market. Liyitec is the market leader of curved type products capable of making single and multiple curvatures.To satisfy the safety demand in automotive, aviation, marine or outdoor applications, safer products are needed in the market. The anti-explosion products ensure that, when the product is hit with tremendous force and breaks, the glass will not shattered into pieces and will still stick together as a whole to prevent hurting users, like the safety glass of car windshields. Liyitec is a pioneer in the industry to introduce anti-shatter PVB in its anti-explosion and anti-UV touch screen to protect users. Also, Liyitec offers AG (anti-glare), AR (anti-reflection) and AF (anti-fingerprint) surface treatments to spare clients from multiple outsourcing for different processes - a service that satisfy customer's one-stop shopping demand.Liyitec will exhibit its products at Computex 2018 (TWTC Hall 1, Touch Applications & Display Products C0620) including medium -to large-size flat, curve, profile-cut, anti-explosion touch screen as well as cover glass to satisfy all kinds of customization needs.Liyitec's 65-inch anti-explosion and anti-shatter touch screenJ-type curved touch screen

Flash memory is a non-volatile storage medium. This means that data remains on the solid state drive (SSD) without power. There are however certain factors that can lead to data loss and data degradation.Data retention: Temperature and P/E cyclesHigh temperatures and frequent program/erase (P/E) cycles can both severely impact data retention. Every cell inside flash traps a negative charge that represents a binary value (e.g. 01, 10 etc.). These cells are generally very good at holding on to this charge, but every now and then some of the charge will leak out. Error correction code is normally very good at picking this up and fixing the problem.High temperatures will, however, speed up the rate of leakage. Testing shows that the data retention of standard MLC flash decreases 168-fold when moving from 40 degrees C to 85 degrees C. This means data that would normally last 2 years, will experience issues in only five days. The problem is further exacerbated as the number of P/E cycles increases, meaning that SSDs in heavy-writing environments are particularly at risk.iRetentionInnodisk's new iRetention technology tackles this problem through smart firmware and hardware innovations. An onboard sensor will constantly monitor temperatures, which along with the P/E cycle number is used to calculate how often to refresh the data. This is all handled by the SSD itself and will self-adjust to changes in the environment.iRetention is perfect for devices that see extreme temperatures and thermal variation. This makes it suitable for application such as in-vehicle, automation, food processing, and aerospace and defense. Innodisk will showcase iRetention during Computex, June 5 to 9, at Nangang Exhibition Center, booth#J0618Innodisk's most reliable mainstream MLC solutioniRetention will periodically refresh data as data retention drops in challenging environmentsInnodisk at Computex 2018

With the penetration of touchscreen and the diversity of users and situations, besides product functions and quality requirement, the safety of products made of glass components on monitor gradually draws attentions from users as more and more monitor applications are being introduced into family, school, and hospital etc.Take the prime user, the children, for education market as an example, according to an analysis of children's injuries reported by the National Taiwan University Hospital, it was found that injuries to the upper limbs are most common with hand injuries. And the causes of such injuries are equipment crushing, knife and glass cutting. It can be seen that children are active but careless and easily get hurt. As monitors are wildly used in electronic products today, it is imperative to improve the safety on the products made of glass components.Liyitec's anti-explosive and anti-shatter products boost the safety of touchscreen and cover glass. These products are first accepted by European customer and already in mass production since 2017. For the monitor surface with Liyitec anti-explosive and anti-shatter touchscreen or cover glass, even it is hit by tremendous force and breaks, it does not shatter into sharp pieces and scatter around. The broken glass will stick on the touchscreen or cover glass like car windshield does. With these Liyitec products, users' accidental damage, especially in regard with broken glass, can be minimized. As more and more electronic products adopt monitors and users tend to look very closely to the monitor, when accident happens, the shattered glass always causes irreversible damages in eyes and face. It becomes a potential hazard to the users. Liyitec leads ahead of touchscreen industry to use anti-explosive adhesive to produce touchscreen and cover glass. These products have anti-explosive, anti-shatter and anti-UV properties which not only enhance the safety of electronic products, but also can safeguard the system integrator or manufacturers from potential legal disputes.Liyitec's new technology can be made into shaped or curved touchscreen and cover glass. They can be integrated into all kinds of industrial design and applications. The manufacturing capability currently supports size as large as 120". This new specification has been implemented into different fields including education, automotive, aviation, marine and outdoor. With the emphasis on product safety, Liyitec's anti-explosive and anti-shatter products have created a new point of differentiation for system integrators and manufacturers. It is expected that the product equipped with new specification can elevate not only the profit margin but also a new wave or demand for such product.Liyitec will exhibit its products in Computex (TWTC Hall 1, C0620) including medium to big size flat, curve, shaped, anti-explosive and anti-shatter touchscreen and cover glass. We sincerely welcome your visit in our booth to share our innovation and achievement with us.Liyitec's anti-explosive technology can be implemented with curved or shaped products for ultimate customer safety
