How to Find Membrane Switch Manufacturers That Offer Rapid Prototyping
There are several US based membrane switch manufacturers that specialize in rapid prototyping. These companies use digital printing technology and laser cutting to quickly produce prototypes of membrane switch panels, flexible circuits, custom graphic overlays and all the spacer and adhesive layers in switch panel the assemblies.
Membrane switches are used in many different applications, including medical devices, consumer electronics, and automotive controls. Rapid prototyping can provide product designers and engineers with testing and validation during a products development phase.
