Wide Range of Options; Highly Customizable with Low MOQ and Short Lead Time
“We designed the MD series of industrial-grade touch monitors when we realized that off-the-shelf monitors (OTS) in the marketplace often failed to meet our customers’ requirements,” says Jack Lam, American Portwell’s senior product marketing director. “We discovered OTS monitors in the marketplace were lacking in options and required a high minimum order quantity (MOQ) and generated a long lead time for modification requests. So, we made it our business to provide our customers with the convenience and ease of one-stop shopping,” Lam continues. “What’s more,” he adds, “Portwell is able to offer low MOQ and provide quick delivery of samples for your project. Our entire MD series has ISO 9001 quality management system certification as well as being CE, FCC, RoHS, and PSE certified. Plus, logistics and final assembly in the USA.”
