Can metal dome be soldered to printed circuit board?

Monday, May 31st, 2010

Can metal dome be soldered to printed circuit board? We aren’t recommend. When metal dome are pushed, the feet actually move outward slightly. When soldered to circuit board, the feet of the domes are restricted from their natural movement. This restriction can negatively affect the tactile response of the domes, and in some cases, cause irreparable damage to metal dome or break the solder joint. so we aren’t recommend to solder the snap dome on printed circuit board.

The depth of dimple of metal dome

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Someone want to know the depth of metal dome, they think that the depth is the deeper the better, and it will be with the better click feeling. Yes, it will be a little better. But if the dimple is too deep, it will affect the life of metal dome. So it’s not the deeper the better.
In fact, As a leading snap dome manufacturer in China, we are very strict about the depth of dimple, it’a almost the stable for the depth.  We can’t change it as customers’ required as we have already set up the tooling. The metal dome life is very stable and can reach one million times.
