OEM Customized Design Membrane Touch Switch With Glossy Surface

Product Description

OEM Customized Design Membrane Touch Switch With Glossy Surface

A membrane touch switch is a type of input device that utilizes a thin, flexible membrane to detect touch or pressure. These switches are widely used in various applications due to their durability, low profile, and ease of cleaning. Here are some key features and benefits:

Features

• Thin and Lightweight: Membrane switches are typically very thin, making them suitable for modern, sleek designs.
• Sealed Design: They can be designed to be water-resistant or dust-proof, which protects the internal components.
• Customizable: They can be printed with various graphics, colors, and layouts according to user needs.
• Durable: Membrane switches have a long lifespan and are resistant to wear and tear.

Common Applications

• Consumer Electronics: Used in remote controls, microwaves, and other household appliances.
• Industrial Equipment: Common in control panels for machinery and factory equipment.
• Medical Devices: Found in devices like infusion pumps and diagnostic equipment.
• Automotive Controls: Used in dashboards and infotainment systems.

Working Principle

1. Layers: A membrane switch typically consists of multiple layers, including a top graphic layer, a spacer layer, and a bottom conductive layer.
2. Touch Activation: When pressure is applied to the top layer, it makes contact with the conductive layer beneath, completing an electrical circuit.
3. Signal Transmission: This action sends a signal to a microcontroller or other electronic component, indicating that a button has been pressed.

Advantages

• Easy to Clean: The flat surface allows for easy cleaning, making them ideal for environments that require hygiene.
• Cost-Effective: Generally less expensive than mechanical switches when produced in bulk.
• Versatile Design Options: Can incorporate backlighting and other visual features for enhanced usability.

Membrane Switch Specification:

1)Material---for front or face overlay

Polyester

1.Highly versatile for embossing 2.Highly resistant to chemicals

3.Better durability 4.For internal and external use

2) Embossing--rim embossing pillow embossing dim embpssing

Graphic overlays can be embossed in order to insert domes (tactile), leave space for mechanical keys and provide tactile indications Pedestal embossing

3)Windows ----for display function

1. print colors windows

2.transparent finishes windows

4)Keys/buttons

Tactile keys---with metal dome or poly dome

Non-tactile--silver printing spot

5) Embeded LEDs-

miniature LED, LED colors:white, yellow, orange, green, red, etc.

6)Cable

is an extension of the printed circuit and is used to communicate with your device

7)Types of connector

1.Zero insertion force (ZIF) connector; 2.Female connector; 3.male connector

8) EMI / RFI / ESD Shielding

use an aluminum foil shielding / a clear ITO electrical conductive polyester

9) Adhesive ----mostly used are 3M-double-side glue

10)Backplate---in aluminum, polycarbonate or acrylic
