3M Touch Systems and Eurocoin are celebrating a 15 year milestone in providing innovative touch screens to gaming operators and manufacturers throughout Western and Eastern Europe.

According to Colin Veitch, Director of Eurocoin: "Our exclusive focus on the gaming market and extensive channel experience, combined with 3M's high quality technical, sales and marketing support for the accounts that we develop, is testament to the success that we have enjoyed between us to date".

As a 3M Touch Systems distributor and integrator, Eurocoin provides a fully equipped and recognised support centre for the full range of MicroTouch ClearTek capacitive touch screen products, including touch screen controllers and calibration tools.

Eurocoin also operates separate sales divisions in UK and Europe for gaming operators and manufacturers, enabling the business to support both sides of the market and ensure 100% customer satisfaction.

Commented Koen Stomph, 3M's market Development Manager, Gaming, Europe: "For the last 15 years, Eurocoin and 3M have been leveraging each other's strengths to address evolving customer needs with the very latest, exciting, new touch innovations".

"Together we have established a strong profile for ClearTek in the gaming community and we look forward to developing this with the introduction of large format ClearTek II touch screens".

ClearTek II capacitive touch screen technology is already a popular choice for gaming and entertainment applications for its fast and accurate touch performance, physical durability, excellent light transmission, advanced anti-glare properties and high reliability in harsh environments such as the gaming floor of a casino or amusement arcade.

Its availability in large format, ranging from 24 to 32in display sizes, will enable casino game manufacturers to design the next generation of large format slot machines and casino operators to provide eye-catching and dynamic interactive applications for their guests.

Eurocoin is currently displaying the latest 3M touch screen products at EELEX 2005, and will also feature the technology at ATEI/ICE 2006.

Visitors to both the 3M and Eurocoin stands will also have the opportunity to see, for the first time, an innovative display technology from 3M called XRVS (extended resolution video screen).
