Silicone keyboards

Silicone keyboards

Silicone keyboards are still important in industrial automation, medical technology and especially in the consumer goods industry. They are a cost-effective alternative to conventional membrane keyboards and offer significant advantages over mechanical keyboards.

Silicone keypads are characterized by their high breaking strength and durability. Various contacting options allow switching pulses to be executed directly on a circuit board.

The comparatively low initial costs for tools allow for cost-effective, customized design variants - coupled with the high value of the products. In addition, an individually designed switching membrane allows the optimum feel to be achieved for every application. The design options are diverse and can be combined with the techniques familiar from the manufacture of membrane keypads - such as snap domes under keypads or printed circuit boards

Your advantages:

  • Cost-effective alternative to conventional membrane keypads
  • Also in combination with the corresponding printed circuit board
  • Liquid-tight design
  • Contacts can be printed in carbon, as carbon pills or as metal plates, also gold-plated

Overall, silicone keyboards offer a cost-effective, robust and versatile solution for numerous industries and applications. They combine a long service life with flexible design options that can be adapted to individual requirements. Thanks to their liquid-tight design and the possibility of using different contact materials, they are an excellent choice in many areas and offer a valuable alternative to other keyboard types.
