OEM & ODM Transparent Silicone Buttons
Transparent silicone buttons, also known as clear silicone buttons or rubber buttons, are electrical contact switches crafted from clear silicone materials using compression molding techniques. These buttons leverage the transparent properties of silicone, enhancing device aesthetics and functionality. Popular variations include backlit silicone keypads, laser-etched silicone keypads, silicone keypads with light pipes, and other clear silicone button designs. The 4×4 clear silicone keypad is particularly favored by users seeking transparent keypad solutions.
Design and Manufacturing Process
When designing and manufacturing silicone rubber keypads, several crucial factors must be considered to ensure optimal performance and durability:
Actuation Force and Structure: This includes the travel distance of the keys and the materials used for keypad conductivity.
Silicone Surface and Materials: Considerations include the inclusion of symbols and icons, protective keypad covers, and the choice of silicone materials, which should account for transparency, hardness, and the application of color spray coatings.
