DURASWITCH



If you've ever wished you could combine the best features of both electro-mechanical assemblies and membrane switches, Duraswitch® next-generation switch technologies are the answer. GM Nameplate's customized flat panel Duraswitch® solutions integrate tactile pushbuttons, rotary switches and multi-directional controls in space saving, slim profile designs, eliminating the need for solder connections and wiring bundles. (Another bonus: Duraswitch® designs eliminate solder and other environmental contaminants banned by the EU's RoHS initiative!)

thiNcoder Slider and Rotor

The name says it all--a thin encoder electronic control. Design possibilities are now greatly expanded! A .087" thickness and less expensive integration make this construction the technology designers are looking for.

  • Thickness (.087")
  • Flex circuit and or PCB
  • Easily integrated with other switch products
  • Light weight, ultra thin, non invasive integrated design
  • No soldering or parasitic power required
  • Customize: encoder/discrete/potentiometer-dual function rotors
  • Mechanical shock tolerance > 100g's
  • Wide temperature range (-40º C to -85º C)
  • Increased design capabilities
  • Lowest profile encoder available

PushGate™

The PushGate™ combines and improves upon the best properties of electro-mechanical and membrane switches. Its sharp, consistent tactile feedback, combined with a low profile and the ability to be environmentally sealed, makes PushGate™ the natural choice for durable front panel controls.

  • Durable and reliable (>500 million actuations and still clicking!)
  • Environmentally sealable
  • Faster actuation response than dome switches
  • Removable overlay and other overlay options
  • Full key illumination capabilities
  • Integration to flex circuit or PCB
  • Low profile, customizable and robust design
  • Increased shielding capability

MagnaMouse™

Use anywhere a multi-directional switch is needed. This next generation technology can replace current products used in computer cursor control, joy stick controls, temperature settings, radio and television channel selection controls, and many other electronic devices that use a multi-directional switch.

  • Unlimited design and directional capabilities
  • Simple design with fewer parts offers reliability, durability and lower costs
  • Environmental sealing available for superior performance in harsh environments
