Membrane Keypads for Military Applications
Rugged FPC and PCB membrane keypads for defence - DMDs, weapon control systems and hand-held chemical detectors - with IP65 to IP67 sealing, backlighting for night use and EMI/ESD shielding. Serving defence manufacturing since 1993.
Operation of Membrane Keypads in Battlefields
Military personnel get fractions of a second to react, so keypads must be easy to access and perceive: we keep adequate spacing between keys to avoid wrong inputs, and build FPC or PCB circuits that survive abusive use, extreme temperatures and high-frequency vibration.
Operations run day or night, indoors or outdoors - so we fit varied backlit options for visibility in dark places, with fluid-proof IP65 to IP67 construction throughout.

Information Required From You
Three inputs let us quote your exact product fast.
Share dimensions of keyboard, display and LED locations, stud and switch sizes and positions, connector location and tail length.
These inputs freeze the mechanical design.
Share a detailed circuit diagram with component specs including connector pin numbers.
Giving us freedom on pin numbers minimizes cross-connections, improves reliability and - on flexible builds - reduces cost.
Overlay material, colors, fonts and finishes decide look and life.
We use special-grade polyester suited to embossing with strong chemical and scratch resistance, in matt, gloss or combination finishes with selective backlighting.
