There are many industries that manufacture membrane switches and other custom switches. Among them Xymox is the leading marketer of membrane switch products. A membrane switch is nothing but the electrical switch that helps to turning circuit on or off. This electrical switch is not made with any material unlike mechanical switches. Usually mechanical switches are made with copper material but membrane switch is a circuit printed. This circuit print is on PET. It is consist of many layers. These membrane switches has wide application like electrical appliances, classic application etc. Its top layer provides an interface between machine and the user. As it is circuit print the ink that is used for printing is of silver or copper or graphite. It is highly conductive in nature. They have number of plants for manufacturing membrane switches across the world. All their products made with cost effective and also of high quality. Membrane keypads also manufacture by them with wide variety. Xymox offers membrane keypad with number of options that can be used for the user interface. Membrane keypad is also called rubber keypad as it is made with the rubber material. This rubber material prevents the circuit from short circuiting.

Capacitive switch from Xymox is easy to use compared membrane switch. Since its reliability is high. One of the features of capacitive switch is that power consumption by them is very low compared to other switches. As it always operates under digital domain it has high response to time. Tactile metal dome array is one of the special products from Xymox. It is a part of the switch that use in pressure adhesive. Usually these domes are used on the printed circuit boards. These dome arrays are very less compared to individual domes and thus it is mostly preferable by everyone.
