Membrane Switch Keyboards with Plane Keys and Fci Connector
Product Description
Membrane switch which Integrated light, mechanical, electrical, and integrated 1980s of the 20th century, is an integrated sealing structure composed of flat multi-layer films.
The membrane switches are the rise of a new type of electronic components can more reliably perform operating system tasks.
Membrane Switch Key Board has many features:
good water-proof, dust-proof, oil-proof, and anti-corrosive gas corrosion characteristics, stable and reliable performance, light weight, small size, long life, panel washable, characters are not damaged, rich colors, beautiful and generous etc.
When designing your custom membrane switch panel, here are some points to consider:
The type of connector required
The number of keys and their purpose
The addition of LEDs or another lighting source
The visual and tactile feeling feedback
The graphic elements to include
The style of your skin graphic overlay
The environment that membrane switch will be used
In a factory, in a cardiology room, in a kitchen, near a heat source, in a cold room or other condition.
The environment where your machine operates will have a significant influence on your membrane switch's design. Maybe it need to be waterproof, resistant to corrosive cleaning products, or able to withstand extreme temperatures.
What type of use experience that you need
You can customize a number of details to create a flat or embossing tactile feeling membrane switch that suits your product. Pls think more about the graphic overlay's material, the design of the keys, and unique accents like metallic or thermochromic ink, LED lights, display screens, and embossing...
What is the size of your switch keyboard?
Pls cosider how much space is available to incorporate a human-machine interface (HMI) into your machine. Fortunately, membrane switches are flexible enough to adapt to nearly any surface, even curved ones.
So the size should not be a restricting factor when designing your keypad, just make sure to choose suitable tactile keys that are adapted to their purpose and the machine's end users.
