The role of Membrane Switch in electronic industry

Membrane Switch has played an important role in the electronic industry since its birth, but it is limited to some components and can not complete the whole process of component processing, but it has made a contribution to improving the appearance and decoration of electronic products. So what is the role of membrane switches in the electronic industry?
Membrane switch is an independent electronic industrial product integrated with screen printing technology. It can not only decorate the appearance of instrument panel, but also have the function of complete operating components. From this point of view, it can be said that it integrates decoration and function. It can be said that it is the product of the development of screen printing technology, but also promotes the development of printing technology to a certain extent.
In the operating system of electronic products with Membrane Switch in the past, it may be limited by the appearance of commercial products because of its large size and single function, and it is difficult to meet the needs of multi-function, miniaturization, intensive and intelligent development of electronic products. Therefore, a new generation of switching element Membrane Switch came into being, Its birth not only provided timely help for the development of electronic industry, but also loved by the electronic industry. At that time, it had many names: Membrane Switch, touch switch, touch button, electronic panel, etc. The Membrane Switch and membrane switch keyboard are named because of their material characteristics. Their overall sealing structure is generally composed of three or more layers of membranes, which integrates keys, switches, panel function symbols, reading display window, indicator light window, on-off interconnect, switch circuit outgoing line and characters to be marked on the conventional panel Symbols and decorative contents form components of an electronic operating system.
