Comfortable typing

Comfortable Typing keyboards are designed with precision and durability in mind, featuring a 2mm thick front panel and 3mm thick key covers, all crafted from high-quality AISI 316L stainless steel. An internal silicone pad ensures a smooth yet tactile typing experience while directly integrating the contacts for each key. Each key cover is precisely cut from the front panel and welded to an internal metal component. This advanced construction method allows for the integration of a rubber or Poron seal, providing an IP68-rated level of protection. Additionally, it prevents any silicone particle leakage, making Comfortable Typing keyboards the perfect solution for Labsfree applications.

Rugged switching

Rugged Switching keyboards are engineered for precision and durability, featuring a 2mm thick front panel and a 1.5mm thick key surface, all crafted from high-quality AISI 316L stainless steel. Designed for exceptional accuracy, these keyboards utilize metal dome technology, ensuring a highly responsive and reliable typing experience. The key covers are seamlessly punched from the front panel, allowing for custom shapes and dimensions to meet diverse application needs. With lower setup costs for custom production, Rugged Switching keyboards offer a cost-effective and versatile solution for specialized environments.

Closed surface

Closed Surface keyboards are the result of an advanced development process, designed to deliver durability and precision. Their defining feature is a stainless steel foil with responsive embossed keys, ensuring both reliability and ease of use. While sharing many characteristics with traditional flexible membrane keyboards, Closed Surface technology stands apart by incorporating a fully stainless steel control surface. This innovation provides exceptional resistance to mechanical stress, making it a highly durable and dependable solution for even the most demanding environments, including Labsfree applications.
