As printed electronics technology evolves from keyboards used primarily in controlled, industrial, biomedical, and technological applications to systems intended to access public facilities, Conductive Technologies has created the so-called "Armor-Plated" Switch. This innovation results in a switch keyboard especially constructed to withstand extremely rugged treatment and to resist tampering.
Using a proprietary combination of materials, inks and adhesives and a unique construction technology, "Armor-Plated" switches are increasingly being specified for use with such public places applications as automatic banking machines, self-serve car washes, coded and programmable building, office and auto locking devices, laundromats and the like.
