Membrane Switch Keypads
A membrane switch, also called a membrane keyboard or membrane keypad, is a switching device comprised of a series of flexible layers of polymer films and adhesives. The uppermost layer of a membrane switch panel is typically called a graphic overlay and is produced by printing on
the second surface of clear polyester or polycarbonate film.
Other electronic components can be implemented, such as discrete LEDs, backlighting sources, and connectors that make membrane switches easy to integrate into other systems or devices.
Hard Waterproof Keyboards
We offer a wide range of hardened waterproof keyboards, in silicone or stainless steel, and IP classified for the military, aeronautical, but also medical, industrial, or distribution markets.
Many configuration options are available, in particular for the choice of pointer, installation, connection, or languages (22 languages available for the Ikey range).
Silicone Keypads
Silicone keyboards are suitable for all areas of application of printed circuits: telephony, remote controls, calculators, computer keyboards, radios, toys, musical instruments, photocopiers, and door entry systems, and are intended for all industrial sectors such as electronic banking, household appliances, instrumentation, medical, automotive, IT, home automation, etc….
