Metaldome achieves comparatively greater tactile with significantly shorter actuation than Polydome, and are used extensively in telecommunication products due to the properties displayed:
● Slim design & light weight
● Short actuation with excellent tactile
● High operating temperatures of 85°C
● Excellent Mechanical Life
● Metaldome Arrays can be mounted on
● FPC (Flexible Printed circuit) as a module and integrated with other interface components such as LEDs, LCD, EL and connecters.
● PCB (Printed Circuit Board) as an array held by PET retainer
● Front panel as an integrated assembly
POLYDOME
Polydome offers tactile feel with relative short actuation. Polydome forms the basic platform for Front Panel and Polyester Circuitry products.
Applications for Polydome technology are diverse, and includes the following:
● Telecommunication industry
Polydome integrated with EL and LEDs, the unit will be assembled onto PCB or Silicone rubber keymat.
Underlay Polyester circuitry forms modular unit with Polydome, providing ease in assembly to master module
● Audio and Visual Products
High end remote controls for Audio and Visual Products with contact made by plastic actuators or rubber keymats.
● Consumer Electronics and Appliances
Together with the Graphic Overlay, Polydome forms many possibilities to be used in these areas of application.
Products commonly found with Polydome are:
Rice cookers, Washing Machines, Coffee makers, Vacuum, Vacuum Thermal Flasks, Microwave Ovens, Compact Remote Controls
