The Advantages of Silicone Keypad:
- Durability: Silicone rubber keypads are highly resilient, offering long-lasting performance even in harsh conditions. They withstand repeated use without degradation.
- Flexibility: The material’s inherent flexibility allows for the design of keypads that are comfortable to use and adaptable to various shapes and sizes.
- Temperature Resistance: Silicone rubber maintains its properties across a wide temperature range, from -40°C to 250°C, making it suitable for extreme environments.
- Chemical Resistance: Resistant to oils, solvents, and other chemicals, silicone rubber keypads are ideal for applications in industries where exposure to harsh substances is common.
- Tactile Feedback: Provides excellent tactile feedback with a soft and responsive touch, enhancing user experience and ease of operation.
- Waterproof and Washable: The keypads are inherently waterproof, which makes them easy to clean and ideal for applications requiring frequent sanitation.
Surface Treatments for Silicone Keypad:
- Silk Screen Printing: This method applies a durable ink layer to the surface, ideal for creating high-contrast legends and intricate designs.
- Laser Etching: Utilizes a laser to engrave designs onto the keypad, offering precision and permanence for long-lasting markings.
- Epoxy Coating: Provides a clear, protective layer over the keypad’s surface, enhancing durability and resistance to wear and tear.
- PU Coating: A polyurethane coating that offers protection against scratches and abrasion while maintaining a smooth finish.
The Production Process of Conductive Keypad:
Design: Create a detailed design considering form, key layout, and structure.
Material Preparation: Gather conductive materials like silicone rubber, carbon powder, metals, and backing material.
Conductive Layer Formation: Develop the conductive layer using silicone rubber mixed with carbon powder or metal mesh.
Printing: Use advanced printing methods to apply key patterns and symbols onto the conductive layer accurately.
Assembly: Integrate the conductive layer with the backing material, ensuring precise alignment.
Curing: Subject the keypad to controlled curing to enhance adhesion.
Quality Testing: Thoroughly test sensitivity, electrical conductivity, and aesthetics.
Packaging: Securely package the keypads to protect against damage during transportation.
