The automotive industry is increasingly changing the interior cabin design around the control panels of the car. A development from exclusively tactile buttons to a more ‘smart surface’ approach. This meets consumers’ ever-increasing demand for touch operation.
We see cars with solutions that consist entirely of high-end touch screens. But more and more cars are produced with console solutions that combine tactile buttons and capacitive touch sensors.
At Mekoprint, we have a team dedicated to helping our customers develop and produce capacitive touch sensors in large quantities.
The sensors both contribute to reducing the weight of the operating solutions, as well as improving the user experience with a light touch for activating the control panel, infotainment system and other console solutions.
Capacitive touch foils are integrated either as in-mold electronics or by mounting with an adhesive on the back of the panel.
Our state-of-the-art, automated roll-to-roll screen-printing production enables us to accommodate the high demands from the automotive industry.
Both for delivering high and uniform quality and at the same time ensure a globally cost competitive high-volume production.
Among our capabilities are also print of capacitive touch foils at high speeds and volumes with a silver fine-line technology, creating conductive traces with a width down to 50 µm.
Already working with large industries demanding high yield, low ppm-values, and dedicated quality assurance in all processes.
You can rest assured our printed electronics team are experts in both capacitive touch sensor technology and series production.
Look inside our Danish factory. This is where development and manufacturing take place in fully automated production facilities.
Our printed electronics team are specialists in capacitive touch sensors and always happy to act as a sounding board for new and existing solutions. So please feel free to reach out!
Moving towards increased collaboration on far more sustainable products and supply chains.
Watch the video and see how far we have already come – and how we together can reach much further.
We would like – together with you – to invest time in finding solutions towards the ultimate goal of sustainable balance, based on cradle-to-cradle thinking!
From tactile switches to smart surface technology in control panels. Capacitive touch sensors printed on thin polymer films are used as cost efficient, lightweight, flexible user interfaces where touch operation is preferred.
