Ball drop test

The ball drop test is used to determine the single-ring resistance and flexibility of the surface of a touch screen under rapid deformation.

Ball drop tests are carried out according to the following standards:

  • ISO 6272-1,
  • DIN/ISO 6272-2,
  • ASTM D2794,
  • ASTM G14,
"Interelectronix specialises in the construction of particularly robust and impact-resistant touchscreens that can withstand very high shock pulses."
Christian Kühn, Managing Director

One example is Impactinator® IK10, which can withstand more than 40 joules of shock pulses with a thickness of only 2.8mm.
