Rubber keypads offer wide choice of customisation
New from Radiatron is a range of competitively priced silicon rubber keypads that meet diverse application requirements through a wide choice of customisation options.
To give designers an initial indication of the appearance of a new enclosure before samples are produced, Radiatron provides customers a free industrial design service where 3D rendered models are created from initial outline sketches.
Once approved, samples are produced and the company then adds user interfaces, switches and connectors to the package.
With the ability to add customised fascias, membrane or conventional keyboards, switches, indicators, transparent windows and even EMI shielding to the enclosures, Radiatron offers OEMs the opportunity to differentiate their products through packaging design without adding significantly to the overall product design time.
Other options include vents and louvers, tilt stands, carrying handles and straps, internal mounting systems for printers, and printed circuit card guides.
Amendments to the design of initial samples can be made quickly and at minimal cost.
