Why Are Plastic Rubber Keypad Widespread Used?

Self-lubricating silicone improves the problems of poor dynamic sealing effect and short service life of existing silicone rubber. Self-lubricating is suitable for compression molding, extrusion, injection molding. Vulcanized silicone rubber products produce oil fast, moderate amount of oil, and use oil has a certain slow-release effect, not only to ensure the lubrication effect, but also improve the service life. The main characteristics of oil self-lubricating silicone are smooth feel, high surface finish, smooth surface, no sticky dust, improved wear resistance and strong adhesion. Secondly, it can play a good role in dustproof and anti-viscosity of silicone products, and it also has low viscosity temperature coefficient and high compressibility.

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.

Aircraft Button also called as aircraft switches and buttons, airplane button, plane buttons, plane cockpit buttons, aeroplane buttons etc., which is made of transparent elastomer silicone rubber material to be with long lifetime, high elasticity and reliability, good tactile feeling and robust characteristic.

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

One of our customer is developing a medical device Probe with a handpiece, that has a small Silicone Keypad.He send us the design drawing for evaluation and quotation.This is silicone keypad with metal dome carrier.One of our customer is developing a medical device Probe with a handpiece, that has a

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?
