Graphic Overlays

VisionMark designs and manufactures graphic overlays and membrane switch overlays in our ISO 9001-2008 registered Sidney, Ohio plant. Our key staff has over 100 years of experience producing precision graphics to demanding specifications.

We provide custom graphic overlays to a variety of industries including electronic instrumentation, medical equipment, material handling equipment and industrial controllers. These OEMs require graphic that withstand difficult environments including, abrasion, UV radiation, solvents, and moisture. VisionMark makes graphic overlays and membrane switches for the tough jobs.

Selection of overlay materials directly affects the durability of the graphics and the switch. Polycarbonate provides easier fabrication, but results in a less durable overlay design. We recommend polyester membrane switch overlays for longer life, more actuations, and better resistance to difficult service conditions.

Design options for graphic overlays and membrane switches include, but are not limited to:

  • Hard Coat Finishes
  • Filter Windows
  • Embossing
  • Tactile Response
  • ESD/EMI Shielding
  • Embedded LEDs
  • Connector Selection
  • Backlighting
  • Subpanels
  • Circuit Encoding
  • Panel Interconnections
  • Elastomer (rubber) key pads
  • Metal Domes
  • Embossed Domes
  • Durable Printed Textures

Membrane Switches and Membrane Keypads

Graphic overlays provide membrane switches with the critically important feedback and tactile feel necessary for use. In addition, the membrane switch overlay defines key locations when used with mechanical switches. An effective membrane switch overlay is critical to the equipment user's experience. Each time an operator uses these membrane switches they experience your company and the quality of your product.

At VisionMark, every step in our ISO 9000:2008 registered membrane switch manufacturing process, from computerized color matching, precision screen printing, finishing, die cutting, and assembly ensures the quality of your membrane switch.
