Define your assembly

A keypad mounted on a backplate is one of the most common and efficient HMI configurations. It enables fast and easy mechanical integration at your end.

 

The keypad is typically a membrane switch or silicone rubber type, mounted on a metal or plastic backplate – adapted to your product and assembly process.

A more advanced solution with multiple functional layers built directly into the keypad construction – such as EMC shielding, light blocks or environmental sealing. These assemblies are typically delivered mounted on a housing, allowing effortless integration into your product.

 

The construction can be tailored to demanding environments or specialised use cases where reliability, sealing or controlled light behaviour are critical.

A mechanically and electrically integrated solution combining input and output – typically a keypad with a display. This type of assembly supports efficient signal routing, and is delivered ready for plug-and-play installation in your system.

A complete, self-contained input module – ready for direct electrical integration into your product. These assemblies typically include keypad, display, PCBA, wiring and housing – delivered as a tested and documented unit under a single item number.

Co-moulding unites the housing and the interface into one integrated component. By moulding soft-touch silicone directly onto a rigid plastic structure, separate assembly steps are removed while enabling high IP protection, durability and a clean, unified design.

 

As with multifunction assemblies and HMI modules, co-moulding offers an efficient path to compact, robust HMI units – ideal for wearables and harsh environments where sealing and ergonomics are essential.

A well-designed enclosure supports the complete HMI assembly and defines how the final product is experienced. We develop customised enclosures that are engineered to fit your electronics, displays, PCBs and connectors – ensuring mechanical precision and straightforward integration with any of the assembly levels described above.

 

Whether your solution requires bent and formed sheet metal, CNC-milled parts or 3D-printed prototypes, the enclosure becomes a seamless part of the complete HMI solution, helping streamline your supply chain and reduce time-to-market.

Save R&D time & resources

Focus your R&D efforts where they create the most value – and let us handle the HMI. We manage the entire development process, including component sourcing, material selection, prototyping, testing and logistics. One partner – all in one place. 

Simplify
supply chain

With Mekoprint as your HMI partner, you get a streamlined supply chain and full quality assurance. We handle the complete tolerance chain, documentation and testing – so you only deal with one supplier for the entire HMI assembly. 

Time-saving assembly

On your production line, you only need to interface with one fully integrated HMI assembly. This reduces assembly time and simplifies both manufacturing and quality control.
