Overview:
Customized silicone rubber keypads produced via precision compression molding for electronic POS devices. Engineered for reliable tactile performance, long-term durability, and clear legends, our keypads combine advanced silicone compression molding with controlled molding and premium post-processing (laser etch, pad print, epoxy/PU coating). Ideal for retail, hospitality, self-checkout, and kiosk applications, these keypads offer IP-rated sealing options, anti-wear finishes, and full OEM customization — color, dome profile, conductivity, and graphic layout — backed by rapid prototyping and scalable production.

Primary Processes & Tooling:
- Tooling: 5-axis CNC machining, mirror EDM, and wire EDM for precision cavity and core creation.
- Molding: Silicone compression molding (primary) with optional LSR injection for high-repeatability parts.
- Post-processing: Laser etching, pad/screen printing, epoxy/PU coating or doming, conductive carbon/metal pill insertion, die-cutting and adhesive backing application.
- Assembly: Panel integration, adhesive foam/gaskets, and final product testing.
Surface Coating & Marking Options:
- Epoxy Coating / Doming — long-lasting, abrasion-resistant legends for heavy-use terminals.
- Matte Finish — anti-glare surface suited for brightly lit retail counters.
- PU Coating — superior chemical and abrasion resistance for harsh-clean environments.
- Multi-Color Printing & Laser Etch — crisp, durable icons and alphanumerics; color fill options for brand alignment.
- Conductive/Inert Inserts — conductive pills or metal snaps for circuit actuation where required.
Quality Assurance:
We implement strict QA across material sourcing, tooling, molding, and final inspection. Processes include incoming silicone verification, dimensional checks (3D optical projectors, CMM), tactile force profiling, life-cycle actuation testing (>1,000,000 cycles achievable), IP ingress testing, adhesion and abrasion testing for coatings, and electrical conductivity verification for conductive variants. All production follows ISO 9001 quality protocols with full batch traceability and documented inspection reports.
Factory Capabilities:
Our facility houses high-precision CNC centers, mirror EDM and wire EDM, multiple rubber compression presses plus LSR injection units, automated printing and epoxy-coating lines, laser-marking stations, and die-cutting/assembly lines. Inspection labs include environmental chambers, automated actuators, durometers, and 3D metrology tools. Automated curing (AutoDryers) and finishing systems ensure consistent throughput and repeatable quality for both prototype and large-volume runs.
Why choose us?
- Turnkey OEM service: tooling → molding → printing/coating → assembly → testing.
- Flexible customization: tactile profile, hardness, artwork, sealing, and conductive options.
- Proven production scale: from quick prototype samples to high-volume manufacturing with consistent quality controls.
