WHAT IS OVERLAY PRINTING?

Often thought of as the outer-most layer of membrane switches, a graphic overlay is typically the keypad or visual surface above a membrane switch panel assembly.

​

Overlays can also be use on top of a rigid PCB assembly or above mechanical switches, or alone just as a directional or decorative element.

 

The ability to emboss custom size/shape buttons makes it a perfect human-to-machine user interface.
