Product Specification

Custom Waterproof Membrane Switch For Industrial Equipment In Gold-Plated Metal Dome

Creating a custom waterproof membrane switch with gold-plated metal domes for industrial equipment involves several key considerations:

Key Features:

1. Waterproof Design: Ensure the membrane switch is sealed properly to prevent water ingress. This can involve using adhesives, gaskets, or coatings that provide IP67 or higher ratings.

2. Material Selection:

   • Substrate: Use durable, flexible materials like polyester or polycarbonate for the overlay.
   • Adhesives: Choose strong, waterproof adhesives that can withstand various environmental conditions.

3. Gold-Plated Metal Domes:

   • Conductivity: Gold plating enhances conductivity and provides a reliable contact point.
   • Durability: Metal domes offer tactile feedback and can withstand repeated presses.

4. Graphic Design: Customize the overlay with graphics, logos, or labels that are printed using techniques like screen printing or digital printing for durability.

5. Environmental Resistance: Consider additional treatments to resist chemicals, UV light, and abrasion, depending on the industrial setting.

Manufacturing Process:

1. Design Prototyping: Create CAD designs and prototypes to ensure functionality and aesthetics.
2. Testing: Perform rigorous testing for waterproofing, durability, and electrical performance.
3. Production: Utilize precision manufacturing techniques to ensure high quality and consistency.

Applications:

• Control panels for machinery
• Equipment in harsh environments like food processing or outdoor equipment
