Heat Pump Heater Digital LED Display Control Panel

Membrane Control Switch is an electrical switch for turning a circuit on and off. It differs from a mechanical switch, which is usually made of copper and plastic parts: a membrane switch is a circuit printed on PET or ITO. The ink used for screen printing is usually copper / silver / graphite filled and therefore conductive.

MEMBRANE SWITCH CUSTOMIZATIONS

SWITCH BUTTONS

We offer custom key sizes and shapes, and keypad layouts. Tactile and non-tactile designs are both available.  Tactile keypads have thresholds ranging from a force of 200 to 700 grams.  For a subtler design, Non-tactile keypads provide a lower profile without the “click” of a tactile button.

LEDS

We carry beautiful LED’s in five colors: red, green, yellow, blue, and white.  For panels that need dual purpose LED’s, we also carry Bi-colors in red-green, red-yellow, and green-yellow.  Most of these LED’s are available in 1206, 0805, and 0603 package sizes.

SHIELDING

Ambient electromagnetic and radio waves can negatively affect sensitive circuitry.  However, our metal fabricating capabilities can equip your circuitry with an EMI/RFI shielding.  The dimensions of your EMI/RFI shielding will protect completely and fit exactly.

TAIL CONNECTORS

We install tail connectors of practically all varieties.  That includes latching, polarized, and locking connectors.  It also includes single and double row connectors with any number of pins.  These connectors have a .1” pitch, but .05” is also available.  ZIF (zero insertion force) connectors are a lower cost alternative.  The pitch of these connectors come in 0.1”, 0.05”, and 1mm

GRAPHIC OVERLAY OPINIONS

MATERIALS & FINISHES

Standard finishes for polyester and polycarbonate include anti-glare (low gloss), gloss, brushed and velvet, with velvet being the most popular to hide fingerprints.  Choose from a variety of gauges and finishes both in polyester and polycarbonate. Some polycarbonate finishes include velvet gloss 8A35, velvet matte 8B35, and fine matte HP12W in addition to many others. Some polyester finishes include gloss, 55% gloss, and fine texture. With selective texturing, designated areas of an overlay can be with gloss or diffused. Selective texturing is most common with windows.

DIGITAL PRINTING

Digital printing is becoming more popular for creating graphics, and for good reasons.  Our digital printers have a large format to accommodate oversized graphics.  A resolution up to 1,200 DPI provides fine details and superior gradients.  Graphics can be printed directly from your electronic file.  Minimal tooling and set up means it is perfect for prototypes and short runs.

SCREEN PRINTING

Screen printing is the most popular method of printing.  We computer-match our UV curable inks to guarantee an exact color reproduction.  These inks are used with high tension polyester screens to print features as small as .005” across. This is a scale suitable for halftones.  Our screening process is also suitable for the ever important circuitry, and parts that require selective texturing, which creates the illusion of separate window lenses with a flush, sealed construction.

COLOR MATCHING

The Pantone, RAL, and L*a*b* color matching systems are familiar tools here.  The graphic designers color match with the latest vector based software.  The screen printing department color matches with the exact science of UV curable ink mixing formulas.  The painting department color matches with computer databased paint formulas that utilize a mix of 16 base colors.  No matter the media, we make sure the beauty of your panel looks the way it should.

ADHESIVES

Choose from a variety of adhesives to affix your overlay to its panel. We use only the highest quality adhesives from the 3M brand to ensure permanence. Depending on your panel’s final application, you can choose the industry standard 3M 467 or 468, or if your panel requires adhesive with low surface energy you can choose 3M 300LSE. 

INTERIOR CUTOUTS

Every material we print on follows seamlessly through our diverse array of automated cutting machines.  By delegating the perfect machine for each part, we can minimize set up and lead time, which in turn reduces cost.  Regardless of which machine or material is used, your parts will always be precisely cut.

WINDOWS

We offer windows on the graphic layer with different finishes.  Selective texturing creates the illusion of separate window lenses with a flush, sealed construction.  Glossy, semi-gloss, frosted, antiglare, dead-front and translucent windows are all available options.  Furthermore, windows can be colored and tinted with different transparent and translucent inks.

EMBOSSING

We have many customers who design emboss into their panels.  It is a great option for making important features more prominent or providing tactile feedback.  The most common is pillow embossing for buttons and LED’s.  Rim embossing and braille are also common, but there are many options to choose.
