Other keys require multiple colors and are scattered. At this time, Teflon trays can be used for material placement and molding. Most of the requirements can be met. For some products that are especially difficult to achieve the required effect, the difficult parts can only be molded into a single key first, then molded together with other parts, and finally become an integral key of a silicone product.

With more and more key positions and functions of silicone keys, printing characters on the surface of the keys has become standard. Silk screen printing, laser carving and other subsequent processing processes can achieve the effect of printing characters. Silk screen printing is the most frequently used, because silk screen printing technology is cheap and colorful, but most customers have a concern when customizing keys-is silicone key silk screen printing characters wear-resistant.
First of all, some products have only one or two colors, so as long as the materials are carefully placed and there is a shell cover between the keys, the two parts of the keys can be made in different colors without mixing colors. This is relatively simple.
Silicone products can be customized colors, all kinds of dazzling colors are very good-looking, but once it comes to multi-color, it is difficult to do, when manufacturing multi-color products, the boundaries are not clear, it is very easy to mix colors, but some customers want to do is multi-color silicone keys, certainly can't mix colors together, so how to achieve clear boundaries without mixing colors.
Of course, the products similar to calculators and keyboard keys made by the above two methods are all types with plastic shells covering the keys.
The part where the colors intersect can be blocked, and finally the effect of keys of several colors on one key can be formed. If the keyboard is completely unblocked, the colors are clearly defined, and the colors are printed after forming for a long time.
Under normal circumstances, silk-screen characters can be used for a long time without being obliterated. Silicone keys have certain wear resistance. Some key characters are erased because of problems in the silk-screen printing process. There are three common reasons:.
1. The baking time is short or the temperature is low. The ink needs to be cured on the surface of the silicone button at high temperature in a short time. The ink will naturally fade if it is not completely dried.
2. Dirty surface of the button will also affect the combination of ink and silica gel. Therefore, experienced screen printing masters will use the roller to pass on the button before printing, which can absorb dust and dirt on the surface and effectively reduce the defective rate of screen printing.
3. Poor ink quality, long ink storage time or ink deployment problems will affect the quality of screen printing, so you can consider replacing the ink.
Silk screen printing can meet the needs of most customized customers of silicone keys, and is not easy to be erased. If the requirements for wear resistance are high, you can also choose wear-resistant processes such as laser engraving, oil injection, glue dripping, etc., which can better protect characters and make people clearly identify them.
