What is Silver Migration? Printed silver is a metal that has been used in the flexible circuit aspect of membrane switches for over 35 years. The conductive silver is screen printed on flexible substrates (typically polyester or polycarbonate) to form the conductive traces that are the electrical backbone of a membrane...

The motor is one of the commonly used electronic devices in life. For different purposes, the motor can be divided into many ways. In this article, JRPanel will introduce the characteristics and principles of servo motors, and introduce the characteristics and principles of torque motors. Finally, the editor will discu...

We mentioned in the previous article: Pantone is a well-known ink brand in the United States, and it has formulated the world's leading color standard: Pantone color matching system. Pantone color matching system has become the color standard in many fields such as printing, packaging, painting, computer, clothing,...

What is FR-4? FR-4 is a grade for flame-retardant fiberglass reinforced epoxy material. Therefore, FR-4 PCB offers higher level of heat resistance than standard PCB. The FR-4 board is divided into Three classification, determined by the number of copper trace layers: 1. Single layer PCB 2. Two layer PCB 3. Multilayer P...

Generally speaking, in PCB multi-layer board design, four-layer boards are used more. So, do you know the design rules of PCB four-layer board? JRPanel would like to introduce the design rules of the four-layer board for everyone today. 1. Design form of four-layer board: (1) Uniform spacing: The biggest advantage is t...

Industrial machinery and equipment often require keypads and human machine interfaces that are rugged and built to last in tough environments and extreme temperatures. These custom industrial keypads need excellent tactile response while also being environmentally sealed from water and dirt and the ability to withstand...

Screen Printing: Membrane switches have always utilized screen printing to print circuits and graphic overlays. Screen printing is a process that uses a woven mesh stencil to transfer ink to the material underneath or substrate. The stencil contains the actual design or artwork. The screen sits atop the product that wi...

One of the least commonly used graphical overlay components is the front panel. A fully customizable and versatile user interface solution that can print dead panels to accommodate almost any type of design supported by backlighting, embossing, or other customizable features. Dead panels have long been the ideal choice...

From prime labels to membrane switches, the materials we use on a day-to-day basis can have a huge impact on the products we deliver to our customers. That’s why I like to keep a close eye on new developments, inside and outside of our business. As many of us know, one of the great advantages of a membrane switch is t...

Developing a product from scratch can be incredibly difficult work. Organizations hoping to bring new ideas to life must be prepared to make painstaking decisions throughout the ideation and production processes. Product design is often one of the most challenging dilemmas to solve when creating something new. Between ...

Using traditional bending machines to achieve high-precision bending of metal plates is challenging. This is mainly determined by the characteristics of the material, and its elasticity changes according to its composition and grain direction. Therefore, the process usually takes longer because it requires more knowled...

Why are multi-layer PCBs mostly even-numbered layers and few odd-numbered layers? There are single-layer, double-layer and multi-layer PCBs. The number of layer is not limited. There are currently more than 100 layers on boards. Common multi-layer PCBs are four-layer and six-layer boards. So everyone will have this que...
