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.

Project Process

How to Make your Membrane Keypads with 2-Step Keys a Complete Success

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 with 2-step keys. 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.
