Overview

Rubber silicone keys and keypads with conductive buttons are input devices commonly used in electronics to provide a responsive and durable interface. These components are typically manufactured using the silicone rubber compression molding process. During this process, conductive carbon or metal particles are embedded within the silicone material, creating buttons that can effectively close electrical circuits when pressed. The result is a keypad that offers reliable tactile feedback and long-lasting performance, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including consumer electronics, automotive controls, and industrial equipment.

The Production Process of Silicone Conductive Buttons

The production of silicone conductive buttons involves several key steps to ensure high-quality and reliable performance:

1. Material Preparation:High-consistency rubber (HCR) or liquid silicone rubber (LSR) is selected and mixed with conductive fillers, such as carbon or metal particles, to achieve the desired electrical properties.

2. Molding: The prepared silicone material is placed into a compression mold, where it is shaped under high pressure and heat. The molding process allows the material to flow into the mold cavities, forming the button shapes with precise dimensions.

3. Curing:Once the molding is complete, the silicone buttons are cured at elevated temperatures to vulcanize the material. This step solidifies the silicone and ensures the conductive particles are evenly distributed throughout the button.

4. Post-Molding Processes:After curing, the buttons may undergo secondary processes such as trimming, surface finishing, or laser engraving to meet specific design and functional requirements.

5. Quality Inspection:Finally, the silicone conductive buttons are subjected to rigorous quality control tests, including electrical conductivity checks and durability assessments, to ensure they meet the required standards for performance and reliability.
