Dome Switch Keyboard is also called as metal dome switch keypad, tactile dome switch keypad.The dome switch keyboard usually uses two circuit board traces under a flexible or elastomer keyboard using either metal dome or polyurethane formed domes .In other words, dome swich keyboard use two circuit board traces in conjunction with a metal dome. The metal domes, usually made made from nickel plated stainless steel which provides a very reliable user interface (over one million cycles). The metal dome of dome switch keyboard are instantaneous switch contacts that provide a tactile or "smap" sound when pressed. When driven by an electric circuit, the dome becomes a tactile switch that is always on.

Epoxy coating is made up with resin and curing agent. Epoxy coating is a protective transparent epoxy resin coating, which is commonly used in silicone keypad to protect the key surface.This thick epoxy coating gives the silicone keypad a hard plastic feel and shiny look.Epoxy coating extends the li

Rubber domes are also known as rubber dome switches.It is made of silicone rubber material and is small and flexible.Rubber dome is a switching technology of membrane keyboard.Generally, rubber domes are designed with conductive carbon pill or conductive printing.This means that the rubber dome acts

Rubber contact strip is also called as digital piano keypad rubber contact strips, which is typically used in Yamaha keyboard.There is conductive contact under the rubber contact strip, which will touch the digital piano’s PCB when press down the button of piano keyboard.This allows the keyboard and

What is actuation force of rubber keyboard?Actuation force: the amount of pressure needed to depress a key and register a keypress. Different key switch designs allow for different levels of actuation force, which is usually defined in grams (g) or pound force (lbf).Keyboard that use dome switches,

Elastomer silicone rubber keypad and mechanical keyboard are widely used on the market.Each type uses a different method to open and close their respective switches. So, what’s the difference between elastomer keypads and mechanical keypads exactly?

There are some methods to make silicone rubber keyboard: compression molding, liquid injection molding(LIM), insert molding, overmolding.Will choose the most suitable method according to the silicone keyboard design or requirements. We will look at two of the most common methods of silicone keyboard.

Laser etching keyboard is used for the keyboard that requires backlight effect. We solved many problems of engraved keyboard for clients, sharing with you our cases. Spraying color of graphics, then color of keyboard surface, set graphics on laser machine, then laser etch graphics, this is the processing of painted laser etching keyboard.

Silicone overmolding is also known as rubber overmolding, liquid silicone overmolding, lsr overmolding, insert overmolding, multi-shot injection molding, as a process that apply silicone rubber part - overmold onto the second part - substrate by compression molding, transfer molding, plastic injection overmolding or liquid silicone rubber injection molding(LSR overmolding ). By silicone overmolding, silicone rubber part will form a bonding with the substrate. Silicone overmolding is widely used for overmolding silicone, overmolding rubber, overmolding glass, overmolding plastic(PP, PC, ABS ), overmolding metal, silicone overmolding electronics, medical silicone overmolding, etc. Such as TPU/TPE overmolding, cable overmolding, fabric overmolding, overmolded connector, pcb overmolding, overmolded gasket, overmolded o ring, etc.

Rubber Overmolding is that connect two or multi color rubber parts, dual hardness rubber parts, or different rubber material parts together into a complete final rubber product by compression molding. In rubber buttons overmolding production, multi coloured buttons or dual hardness buttons are molded into a colorful and functional rubber keypad. Overmolding rubber buttons can be with beautiful appearance as the parting lines of colored buttons are clear with any color beeding. In addition, overmolding rubber keypad with dual hardness can have better tactile feel feedback to meet customers’ different actuation force requirements.
