History DISPLAYS/TOUCHSCREENS
(TOUCH PANELS) MFI
has a lengthy history in display applications, from custom open
frame CRT monitors for POS and medical applications, to the first touch monitors designed
into postal mail sorting systems and public information stations
in the early '90s. Our experience with flat panel devices goes back to the
development of power converters for alphanumeric and
graphic plasma displays and inverters for electroluminescent lamps. MFI was
among the first representative companies to offer commercially available thin-film
electroluminescent displays (TFELs), as well as the contrast enhancing
polarizing filters to go with them.
We
can help you in your display design efforts by providing display products
from small custom monochrome LCDs for thermometers and instrumentation, to
70″ diagonal remote public information displays incorporating
self-monitoring features so you always know whether or not the display
is operational — without first sending expensive service teams into the field.
Based on your engineering requirements, MFI will help you identify the
type of display, monitor and touch technology needed to optimize your
product. OMPUTERS,
FIBER OPTIC INTERFACE FOR VIDEO APPLICATIONS Computer
engineering is not the core competency of many MFI principals offer single board computers, custom
rack mount systems, Panel PCs, and more, for occasions just like these,
freeing you up to do your job. Our goal is to develop long term
working relationships -- partnerships that provide long-lasting
mutual benefit for both customer and principal. POWER
SOURCES
Our
principals offer custom and semi-custom transformers and power supplies for
a many different conditions and requirements, including temperature, humidity,
shock, vibration, audible and electrical noise, efficiency and mechanical
configuration. In
addition to chokes and inductors, we now offer a range of
other surge suppression components for proprietary power supply and board
level designs. Products include relays, MOVs, TMOVs, rectifiers, MOSFETs,
photo couplers, and photo MOS relays. PC BOARDS, COMPONENTS Looking for PC Boards? MFI offers high quality, high density, fine line/spacing printed circuit boards built in Switzerland. Prototypes & short- and medium-volume production. Component lines include LEDs, Capacitors, Supercapacitors, circuit protection devices (MOVs, TMOVs, gas discharge tubes, etc.), wireless antennae and more. SHEET
METAL Not
every house has the equipment or expertise to stamp and finish metal parts. If
you have sheet metal fabrication requirements, we can help. From metal bending
to machined parts large enough to use in rail systems, to powder coating,
extrusions, silk screening and more, our partners are equipped to handle medium
to large projects in U.S.-based manufacturing facilities. |

Our
principals were among the first manufacturers to offer graphical
Color Super-Twisted Nematic (CSTN) LCDs, prior to the introduction
of Thin Film Transistor (active matrix TFT) displays. Today, MFI offers
Thin Film Transistor (TFT) active matrix displays and monitors, as well as TFTs
and Monitors incorporating either factory supplied or custom touch screens
for medical, industrial, military, POS, POP, signature capture ... even
video applications using fiber optics to transmit secure data
for surveillance and security, as well as to provide low noise
interconnects in electronic equipment, such as copy machines, wide body
scanners and printer-plotters. 
Virtually every
electronic system requires some kind of power source, whether battery or
line-operated. MFI principals offer myriad power sources, including toroidal
and conventional laminated power and isolation transformers; linear and
switching power supplies; battery chargers; chokes and inductors for industrial,
medical, audio, automotive and other OEM requirements. Whether you're
looking for DIN Rail, Rack Mount, Desktop, Wall Mount, ATX or Redundant
power supplies, we can help.
