What is the structure of membrane switch?

A membrane switch is a type of user interface that consists of several layers of flexible materials sandwiched together. It is commonly used in electronic devices and control panels to provide a user interface for input or control. The layers typically include a graphic overlay, circuit layer, and adhesive layer, and assemble them into a whole product that is called membrane switch.

Before dive into the assemble process, we should know the structure composition about a membrane switch. In generally, all the tactile switches are made by six layers, whatever it is the simplest PET membrane switch or the complex fiber optical tactile switch. The six layers are including:

1.Graphic overlay

The graphic overlay is on the top side of the membrane switch, which can be designed various legends and colors on it. There are commonly two printing methods that print the graphic, one is traditional screen printing, and another is digital printed technology. Both two are excellent way to print, but digital printed is mainly used for printing the gradient colors, like dark blue to light blue. By this way, the overlay can be shown a more beautiful and advanced appearance.

2.Overlay spacer

The overlay spacer is typically a layer that provides separation between the graphic overlay (the visible top layer with the buttons or graphics) and the circuit layer (the layer containing the conductive traces). This spacer layer is crucial for preventing unintended contact between the overlay and the circuit layer, ensuring that the switch functions properly and only registers press when intended.

3.Dome retainer

The dome retainer is a part of the membrane switch that helps hold the metal dome onto the correct place, ensuring they are properly aligned with the corresponding circuit traces. It can help to maintain the integrity of the switch’s design and misalignment or unintended actuation.

4.Circuit spacer

A circuit spacer just like the overlay spacer in a membrane switch, it refers to a material that is used to create separation between the dome retainer and lower circuit layer. When a user presses a key or activates a specific area on the graphic overlay, allowing the conductive elements on the overlay to make contact with the corresponding traces on the circuit layer beneath.

5.Lower circuit

This layer usually consists of a flexible circuit board (FPC) or a polyester (PET) or the printed circuit board (PCB) that has circuit traces or conductive elements printed or etched onto it. These traces serve as the conductive pathways for transmitting the electrical signals generated by the user’s input to the electronic device or system connected to the membrane switch. It plays a crucial role in the functionality of the switch by facilitating the completion of electrical circuits when the switch is pressed, thereby registering the desired input.

6.Back adhesive

The back adhesive is the bottom layer of the membrane switch, we always use the 3M adhesive as the bottom layer. The primary purpose of the back adhesive is to provide a strong and reliable bond between the membrane switch and the substrate or surface to which it is applied. This adhesive layer ensures that the membrane switch stays in place during regular use and does not peel off or detach.

 The choice of adhesive is crucial, as it needs to adhere well to various materials, including metals, plastics, or other surfaces commonly found in electronic devices or equipment. Additionally, the adhesive should be durable enough to withstand environmental conditions and temperature variations.

These are the basic layers of the tactile membrane switches, if you have more questions about the structure, welcome to contact us.

Production process and functional testing of metal domes

The metal dome can be used in tact switches and key switches, which are electronic switches with integrated panel and switch functions. The metal dome is mainly composed of four parts: panel, upper circuit, isolation layer, and lower circuit. When the Poly dome membrane switch is pressed, the contacts of the upper circuit deform downward and make contact with the plates of the lower circuit. After releasing the finger, the contacts of the upper circuit bounce back, the circuit is disconnected, and the circuit triggers a signal.


In the production of metal domes, the stamping method can be used to mass-produce metal domes. Stamping has strict requirements on size. For products with a small quantity, a knife mold can be used. During the production process, our inspectors will use calipers to check from time to time to see if the dimensions of the metal domes are accurate. At the same time, check whether the mold is deformed. If the mold is deformed, production should be stopped immediately and a new mold should be made. For products with a larger quantity, steel molds are used, which have less deformation and more accurate dimensions.


The metal dome also needs to be tested after production. The first is functional testing. Here, the strength and feel of the metal dome are mainly tested. The pressing force of the dome will affect the use of the product. When installed in a Poly dome membrane switch, if the pressing force of the dome is inappropriate, it will affect the user’s experience, or there will be no effect after pressing. Functional testing is to sort out unqualified products. Best Technology has rich production experience, so in the testing of dome strength, the pass rate is greatly improved.


The life test of the dome is also part of the test, but the life test takes a longer time than other tests, because when pressing the traditional Chinese medicine to simulate the normal pressing force, you have to wait for the dome to rebound before continuing to press. Therefore, the entire testing process takes a while, so the spot check testing method is used in life testing. Best Technology’s metal dome has a service life of up to 5 million times. Therefore, it is very popular among suppliers in the metal dome industry.

When a metal dome is installed in a Poly dome membrane switch, various uncertain factors will affect the service life of the dome. After testing, our Poly dome membrane switch has a service life of at least 1 million times. Therefore, whether installed in machine operation interfaces or frequently used switches, domes can perform their functions stably.

Main features of metal domes
The metal dome is compact and portable, easy to carry and pack, bears less express delivery costs and is cost-effective. Metal domes can be designed in different shapes and heights according to different requirements. If you need to install LED lights for light transmission, the metal dome can be designed to be hollow to facilitate light transmission. In short, we can design a suitable metal dome according to the user’s product needs.


The metal dome needs to be sealed during use. Improper use of the metal dome will also affect the service life of the metal dome.
