Any suggestions for suppliers in Europe or even Sweden? Or brands and I can look for suppliers. Haven't bought in a while and now my mind's completely blank. No PC, just screen. Panel mount.
Thanks for any suggestions.

One factor is: which PLC do you intend to connect to?

I have only used one panelmount touchscreen PC, it was an Advantech. The quality was good, and it has lasted a few years now.

Their website shows they will be at a trade show in Finland next month.

I've also heard good things both on here and from clients about Hope Industrial. One major client that used to use Hope Industrial exclusively, just switched to Advantech, so they must be doing something right as well.

+1 for Advantech. You can also try B&R.

Beijer Electronics is in Sweden. They may have what you are looking for.

Siemens Industrial Flat Panel IFP.
They have capacitive touch and gorilla glass.
Better than resistive touch.
Also rather expensive.

Hope is a quality panel. We had them in a tough environment and they did well. I believe they use the elo drivers for their touch screen as well, in case you run into issues.
