Keypads/ Control Panels 

Control panels with integrated PCB without aluminium substrate material  

In the field of keypads and control panels, we offer you individual economical complete solutions matched to your requirements, which can be integrated into your existing overall systems (instruments, displays,…) without difficulties. You can also determine the design of the keyboard yourself. 

The keypads are based on a PCB, which we would be pleased to produce for you at our plant. 

Contacts and control components can be mounted with ICS press-fit technology without any intermediate layer.

The space saved as a result considerably boosts the cost-effectiveness of your overall system. 

Advantages at a glance 

• PCB with the dual function as a substrate for the keypads and the connected electronics
   
• Hermetic sealing of PCB and foil
   
• Elimination of screw connections by means of a single layer
   
• Weight reductions and space savings through extremely flat solutions
   
• Improved electrical properties compared with discrete components
   
• Elimination of cable connections and hence improved vibration stability
   
• High number of contact cycles
   
• Improvement in EMC by embedding the signals in a ground surface
   
• Mechanical switches can be integrated
   
• Reverse side fuse/relay assembly (Hi sites)
   
• Combination of the manufacturing technologies of reflow soldering and press-fit technology
   
• Display fields can be directly integrated:
  
  
  • LED  
  • LCD  
  • touchscreens  
  • EL (night design)  
  • 7-segment TFT  
  • graphic display  
  • video channel  
  • fluorescent printing
     
• Design improvement though rack mount rails (interchangeable symbols, labelling, etc.)
