Membrane keypads with double contact

Double contact

Membrane keypads with 2-step keys

When operating equipment and machines, 2-stage buttons can offer a significant advantage. For example, to control a crane for 2 speed levels. They are also widely used in the consumer sector for cameras. The first stage is for auto-focus, and the second stage is used to trigger the image. In addition, certain safety-related functions can be realized with them, since two separate circuits can be triggered by one key operation.

How to make your membrane keypad with double contact a complete success

Idea / Concept

Send a sketch, CAD data or we visit you on site and record the requirements

Engineering

Construction with all technical features, buttons, colors and shape

Approval

Approval by the client and “good to print”

Production pilot series

Production of the pilot series. On request with initial sample test report

Series production

Production of membrane keypads or input units

Assembly on housing

Mounting of the membrane keypad on an housing or front panel

After the feasibility check and the quotation phase, our specialists create a detailed release drawing (good for printing) with all relevant data of your membrane keypad. This drawing shows materials, color definitions (in RAL or Pantone) as well as the conductor paths and the electrical circuit diagram. During this phase, any changes you wish to make can be incorporated into the design without incurring any costs. After approval we start the production of the pilot series.

Ideally we like to combine our membrane keypads directly with one of our enclosures to a complete operating unit. If this cut is made directly by us, you can be sure that the membrane keypad has been assembled correctly and you will not have any rejects due to possible assembly errors. In addition, your stock-keeping is reduced.
