The metal dome used on the silicone membrane keyboard is mainly located on the conductive part of the PCB (mostly above the gold fingers on the circuit board). While the metal dome is mainly made of stainless steel, the metal dome plays an important role in the tactile switch and also has conductive properties. When the silicone rubber keypad is pressed, the center point of the metal dome is concave and contacts the circuit on the PCB to form a loop. The metal dome is reflowed to make the silicone rubber keyboard work.
The metal dome fits into the silicone rubber keypad
The metal dome array consists of individual metal domes on a pressure sensitive bonded PET sheet, each individual metal dome occupying a designated position on the dome display. This kind of position is after the supplier provides the drawing and confirms with the engineer, advanced proofing, and then starts mass production to ensure the availability of the product and reduce the error rate of the product. At the same time, a detachable anti-adhesive backing is arranged on the metal dome display, which allows customers to use it more efficiently.
Silicone rubber keyboard in use, the dome display provides a new tactile experience, due to the different design, the metal dome provides users with a unique and satisfying keystroke response when pressed, improving the user’s comfort during use sex.
The role of metal domes in silicone rubber keyboards
Metal domes are easier to assemble on silicone rubber membrane keyboards. The manufacturer made the assembly process easier when purchasing the metal dome to assemble it into the keyboard. The metal dome is designed to fit snugly on the keyboard, which not only speeds up the customer’s production schedule, but also reduces the possibility of errors during assembly. Best Technology can ensure that the metal domes produced are of precision and reliability, allowing users to have a good experience in assembly and use.
Metal domes last longer in silicone rubber keyboards. For the metal dome installed in the silicone rubber keyboard, the most important thing is the service life of the metal dome. Metal domes have been measured to last approximately five million uses, which is one of the reasons our metal domes are popular in the industry. The stainless steel metal dome is pressed hard and resilient in application, maintaining the integrity of the dome after countless uses. This also gives the metal dome a relatively long lifespan during use.
Application of metal dome silicone rubber membrane keyboard. The metal dome is used as a key component in the keyboard, which makes the keyboard have unique advantages in various fields. With the continuous updating of technology, there are applications of metal domes in the medical field, automotive interface, aerospace, industrial production and other industries. The versatility of these metal dome mounted keyboards has emerged and become an important part of the industry.
The metal dome is an inseparable component in work and life, it connects the command transmission between us and the machine. There is a metal dome added to the silicone rubber keyboard, which makes the transmission command fast, accurate and efficient. From modern consumer electronics to industrial mechanical interfaces, the sophistication and reliability of metal domes has evolved little by little.
