Electronic Membrane Switches and Membrane Switch Keypads

At Elite Technology, we specialize in electronic membrane switches, also called membrane panels or keypads. These low-power electronic membrane switches are used to identify and control the functions of machines and other equipment in a variety of applications, industries, and environments. When you work with Elite, our experienced team can show you how these custom-designed switches can improve the performance and productivity of your products while making them easier to manufacture to save you money.

Electronic Membrane Switches

Our electronic membrane switches are:

  • Low-profile, flexible circuits screen-printed on a thin plastic substrate (usually polyester) using either silver or graphite conductive ink
  • Bonded and assembled with a number of adhesive layers
  • Topped with a graphic interface or graphic overlay that indicates the function of each key on a membrane switch keypad

Polydomes

To improve the user experience, membrane switch keypads often include metal domes or polydomes that provide tactile, audible, or visual feedback, such as a snap that can be felt and/or heard or backlighting that indicates when the key is pressed or activated.
