CL means the compression low force, which is also&nbsp;called&nbsp;rebound force. It refers to&nbsp;the biggest force when the dome back from conductive status to opening status. Generally,&nbsp;people use G&nbsp;(gram)or N (Newton force) to define all kinds force concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome27.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"421\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome27.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome27.png 600w, https:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome27-300x211.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Effect of Dome Strength<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The force of metal dome will relatively reduce along with the pressing times increasing, which we called the phase as the process of force recession. For example, if the initial force is X, and drop to Y after pressing times, then (X-Y)\/X is the ratio, force recession ratio as well. When this ratio reaches a certain value, the performance of the metal dome will be affected until a dead key appears. And the force recession is related to its material and produce process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of force commonly used in metal domes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following mainly introduces round metal domes, cross-shaped and triangular metal domes. The strength of the metal dome is also related to the diameter of the metal dome. If the diameter of the dome is sufficient, the maximum strength of the dome can reach 200-400g. Please see the table below to understand<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome38.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"678\" height=\"170\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome38.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome38.png 678w, https:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/metal-dome38-300x75.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As we know that the force of metal domes is also related to the lifetime. Therefore, the magnitude of force still depends on the customer\u2019s requirement. if the customer has no requirements about the lifetime, we can increase the force at discretion as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/blog\/2012\/05\/04\/why-metal-dome-force-change-after-assembly\/\" title=\"\"><strong>metal dome is installed<\/strong><\/a> on a product, the strength of the metal dome greatly affects the user&#8217;s experience. Therefore, we will design the strength of the dome based on the drawings provided by the customer, and also adjust the strength of the dome based on the actual application. Producing satisfactory products for customers has always been our original intention. Before mass production, we will repeatedly confirm each parameter of the dome, and focus on the quality of the product to ensure customers&#8217; return rate and let customers trust our products.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Metal domes are mainly installed internally, so be sure to check them before installation to avoid causing trouble in subsequent work.
