Printed Electronics & HMI Products
CCL Design manufactures value added assemblies, combining state-of-the-art multi-layer human interface technology (HMI), through highly decorate interfaces with electronic functionality all in one unit.
Printed Electronics Products
- Decorated overlays are assembled on printed electronic parts with printed tracks, metal switches and LEDs
- Enhanced decoration is carried out using UV moulding, sputter coating (NCVM) and screen printing
- Typical substrates are polyester and polycarbonate
- Chemical-resistant, anti-microbial and UV-resistant materials
- Multiple embossing options (indluding 3D effects)
- Backlighting
- Integrated with flexible circuits and PCB technology
- Tactile and non-tactile response keys
Membrane Switches and Control Panels
- Thin, flexible, lightweight constructions
- Simple fabrication
- Cost-effective solutions
- Solvent, UV and water-based ink options
- Highly conductive silver inks
Screen Printed Circuitry & Printed Electronics
- Thin, flexible constructions
- Excellent first touch sensitivity
- Large dynamic range
- Mechanical reliability
- Meets international durability and environmental standards
- Sensitive with fingers, gloves, passive stylus and in wet environments
- Works with various surfaces, displays and sensors
- Works behind plastics, glass, metal, leather, wood, fabrics, etc.
- Integrates with next generation feedback systems (Haptics)
Force Touch
- Hardcoated substrates with excellent scratch resistance and anti-fingerprint coatings
- Single-layer constructions - thin and lightweight with good first touch sensitivity
- Decoration, printed circuitry and electronics components are all subsurface making the product completely indelible
- Ideal for in-mould electronics (IME)
- Enhanced decoration carried out via screen printing, UV moulding and sputter coating
Capacitive Touch
- Decorated overlays and are assembled on printed electronic track layers incorporating selected interface technology and LEDs
- Enhanced decoration is carried out using UV moulding, sputter coating (NCVM) and a selection of advanced printing technologies.
- Typical substrates are polyester, polycarbonate, PMMA, glass and fibre reinforced products
- Thin and soft touch surfaces to thick high gloss
- Chemical-resistant, anti-microbial and UV-resistant materials
- Multiple embossing and in-mould options (including 3D effects)
- Backlighting
- Integrated with flexible circuits and PCB technology
- Tactile, non-tactile, haptic, force and proximity response keys
- IP ratings to meet customer needs
Human Machine Interface Assemblies
Printed Electronics & Human Machine Interface Products Technology
- Allows for fine detail reproduction, together with accurate colour matching and consistent repeatability
- Used for high-impact surface or subsurface decoration on a variety of substrates
- Offers flexibility with ink systems (UV-based, water-based, solvent-based)
