Foil covered Keyboards

Popular fields of application for membrane keyboards

Membrane keyboards make a crucial contribution to preventing extremely costly downtimes at the human/machine interface. At the same time, membrane keyboards enable precise operations, which then keep operating errors to a minimum, even in the toughest environments. The keyboards have provided a reliable technical benchmark in mechanical engineering, plant construction and apparatus engineering settings for many decades.

However, membrane keyboards are extremely popular in the medical sector too. Thanks to their sealed surface, the keyboards are waterproof and can therefore be cleaned quickly and easily. The lack of any grooves and furrows between the keys means it is impossible for germs to settle and this, in turn, promotes hygienic operations.

Special technologies can enhance your membrane keyboard

Numerous additional features can provide maximum adaptability. Our range also includes, for example, different surface treatments for membrane keyboards. Ranging from UV protection to antibacterial coatings, we can enhance your membrane keyboards in line with your wishes.

In order to generate haptic feedback, we can offer you various different possibilities. In addition to classic embossing, haptic feedback is possible on a resin basis or by applying a haptic varnish.

Individual design and layout for your membrane keyboard

Would you like a keyboard that is marked with your logo or do you require a special arrangement for the keys? One of the benefits of membrane keyboards is that there are almost no limits to their design. The designer of a device can, for instance, freely specify the number of keys, their position and their shape. Then there is the freedom of choice for the graphic design on the operating surface. Let our GETTprojects team advise you on all these matters!

Everything from one source

Thin metal domes are firstly available as the mechanical switching elements on membrane keyboards. However, the switching operation also takes place through the contact between the membrane surface and the lower switch membrane. Membrane keyboards are integrated in systems by gluing them in place, a process that is simple and requires little effort.
