APPLICATION GUIDE

Welcome to SiTech's Application Guide.

At SiTech, we pride ourselves on delivering cutting-edge silicone rubber keypads and components through our exclusive use of Liquid Injection Molding (LIM) technology. This Application Guide is designed to provide engineers, product developers, and designers with the essential information needed to create durable, high-performance silicone keypads for a variety of industries, including medical, industrial, telecommunications, and more.

Why Choose SiTech?
SiTech’s Liquid Injection Molding process offers several distinct advantages over traditional Compression Molding, a method often used by competitors:

  • Efficiency & Precision: With faster cycle times, enhanced part accuracy, and minimal material waste, LIM allows us to produce superior-quality keypads in significantly less time.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: By eliminating the need for pre-forms and using precise, flash-free tooling, our LIM process reduces both material waste and labor costs, ensuring more cost-effective solutions for high-volume production.
  • Consistency & Quality: Using premium liquid silicone materials from Dow and Momentive, we ensure that each batch meets the highest standards for quality, consistency, and traceability.
