Catalogue
The Standard Keyboards Catalog offers a comprehensive overview of our diverse keyboard portfolio and is aimed at companies and developers who need reliable, robust and customizable input solutions for industrial, medical, safety-critical and commercial applications.
The product range includes a wide selection of keyboard solutions, including membrane keypads in classic and Desktop versions, silicone keyboards/Hygienic keyboards with antibacterial coating and IP68 protection, stainless steel metal keypads that are vandal-proof and weather-resistant, as well as Numeric keypads and function keypads, which were specifically developed for industrial and safety-critical applications.
Custom membrane keypads and silicone switch mats with metal keys
In addition to classic metal keyboards, we also produce customized membrane keypads and silicone keymats with integrated metal keysThese hybrid solutions combine proven film or silicone technology with the mechanical robustness and high-quality feel of solid metal actuators.
The metal key is precisely integrated into the multi-layered foil structure or the silicone switching mat. Electrical contact is made via printed circuit boards, metal domes, or contact pills, while the metal cap determines the tactile feel, stability, and visual appeal.
