Key Benefits
- Multicolor, high-contrast legends for intuitive operation and enhanced brand identity.
- Robust screen-print process with UV-cured inks for excellent abrasion, chemical, and detergent resistance.
- Preserved tactile performance—precise dome geometry and controlled travel for reliable actuation.
- Flexible mounting and sealing options (adhesive, gasketed, overmold) to meet IP and design requirements.
- Scalable: rapid prototyping to high-volume production with consistent color matching and registration.
Quality Assurance
We enforce multi-stage QA including raw-material verification, color & adhesion testing, dimensional inspection, and functional life-cycle testing. Key checks include:
- Color consistency and registration verification (spectrophotometer / Delta E).
- Adhesion & abrasion tests for printed legends (crosshatch, Taber abrasion).
- Dimensional control with 3D optical profilers and CMM for dome geometry.
- Tactile profiling and actuation life-cycle testing with automated rigs.
- Environmental testing: thermal cycling, humidity, and chemical resistance.
All production follows ISO 9001 protocols with batch traceability and documented inspection reports.
Factory Capabilities
- Molding: Precision silicone compression molding and LSR injection units for repeatable dome performance.
- Tooling: CNC-machined steel molds, wire EDM, and mirror polishing for tight tolerances.
- Printing: Multi-station screen printing lines with UV curing ovens; pin-registration for multi-color accuracy.
- Finishing: Protective clear coats, resin doming, laser etch back-up marks, adhesive lamination, die-cutting.
- Testing: 3D optical inspection, abrasion & adhesion testers, environmental chambers, automated tactile test rigs.
- Compliance: ISO 9001 certified production with capability to support regulatory documentation for major markets.
