When choosing a silicone keypad company, you want one that’s versatile and that can meet the demands of your product no matter what. Here at SiTech, we are proud to say we meet your unique needs and budget with a variety of far-reaching capabilities. Just ask us about our rapid prototyping process, liquid injection molding, color matching processes, protective coatings and so much more.

We offer our clients a high value because we truly listen to what you want. That’s what drives our team, and that’s what adds value to your final product.

Here’s a look at the many capabilities we offer.

Capability #1: Color Matching

Did you know SiTECH matches the exact color to your custom silicone keypads? Backed by precision and uniformity, we give you a final product that features consistent coloring throughout and a beautiful appearance with no abnormalities.

Our team has the ability to match colors to within 1 Delta-E, which is pretty impressive and gives the closest match possible. Delta-E (dE) is the distance between two colors, and we hold ours to 1.0 dE. This is essentially the smallest color difference the human eye is able to see without using a magnification device.

Capability #2: Rapid Prototyping

This is the single best way to get your product to market and seen by customers rather than waiting around for standard prototyping times. Our rapid prototyping delivers products without complications and delays, after presenting to you, getting your feedback, incorporating that feedback and making revisions.

This results in a more profitable product because we:

• Aid you in considering numerous ideas and approaches.
• Hold discussions with you based on individual, easily-visualized components.
• Bring a more detailed understanding of your product (not just manufacturer but client as well).
• Reduce your risk level.
• Make sure there are no missed requirements or confusion with deliverables.
• Make sure your keypad gets to market in weeks, not months.

Capability #3: Liquid Injection Molding (LIM)

Liquid silicone injection molding (LIM), is a way of custom-molding high-viscosity, two-part liquid silicone rubber (LSR). LSR is great for its insulating and conductive properties, not to mention durability, bio-compatibility, high tear strength, high tensile strength, flexibility, and hardness. In fact, LSR stays stable at temps as low as 75°F right on up to 400°F. 

Capability #4: Coatings

Our four main types of industrial coatings for protection include:

• Abrasion
• Silicone rubber bonding
• Chemical
• Conductive

They are all different in that they serve a varied purpose, but they do have some things in common. They’re all versatile, scalable at a rapid pace, adaptable, and able to protect the final product.
