The control panel is an integrated button system that perfectly combines panel decoration, display window and operation buttons.
Control panels can be divided into two main categories:
One is a flexible panel. The surface can be made into a glossy surface or a frosted surface. The buttons can be made into a flat light-touch type or a hemispherical convex state, and are combined with the PCB below to form a key switch.
The other surface is a thicker PC or PMMA (acrylic) panel with a smooth surface and a capacitive touch sensing control circuit board on the back. The switch function can be triggered by touching the button area on the surface, which is equivalent to the effect of a touch screen.
The picture above is a control panel on the surface of an electronic product, which is most common on controllers of smart home products. The surface of the product is smooth and flat, the buttons are clear and the touch-sensitive control is sensitive. The control panel is equipped with a capacitive touch sensing control switch flexible circuit board.
Touch-sensitive control hosts equipped in KTV, hotels, restaurants, shops and other business places. The surface is a scratch-resistant PMMA acrylic panel with white translucent fonts. When the device is turned off, the fonts appear dark white, and when the device is turned on by touching the button area, the fonts glow bright white.
Combination kit of control panel and capacitive touch sensing control switch circuit board. The capacitive touch sensing control switch flexible circuit board is attached to the back of the control panel and matches the key positions on the front of the control panel to form a capacitive touch sensing control switch.
The capacitive touch control panel has the characteristics of easy and fast installation, reliable and stable quality, rich and beautiful panel colors, and prominent functional markings. It also has good wear resistance, waterproof, fireproof, dustproof, and harmful gas erosion prevention functions.
Capacitive touch control panels have rapidly replaced traditional mechanical switches and are widely used in household appliances, office equipment, instrumentation, machine tool equipment, medical equipment, electromechanical products, industrial controls, toys and other products.
The display lens panel of CASIO electrical products is made of scratch-resistant and abrasion-resistant PC or PMMA acrylic panel. The large-screen, high-transparent display window has 3M glue on the back and can be assembled directly with the case.
The wear-resistant and scratch-resistant panel has a smooth and bright surface, and a large, highly transparent display window in the middle. On the right is the button position and MIC position, which can be equipped with sliding buttons to collect sounds.
The hardened PMMA acrylic panel has a sensor card swiping position on the left, a highly transparent display window on the right, and multiple rows of button holes on the bottom, which can be equipped with silicone buttons or plastic mechanical buttons.
