ABS PBT Pom Material key

Keyboard feel in addition to the key structure related to the key, button cap material and handwriting printing technology will affect the keyboard feel, from which you can see the importance of the key hat is self-evident. Like cherry original mechanical keyboard, the key cap whether it is the material or the handwriting printing technology is satisfying, by many players sought after. And the common key hat materials used is more economical materials such as ABS, after a period of time use will appear Polish phenomenon, resulting in the overall keyboard feel down a lot.

　　PBT, ABS, pom key cap material analysis

　　PBT material key CAP, the material is called White Rock, PBT material will have a corresponding logo inside the cap, very easy to identify. PBT material key caps are generally used to make white key caps, which is due to the black PBT key Cap if the use of laser etching technology ineffective. On the feel, PBT material key cap is not easy to polish, particle sense is strong.

Pom Material key cap, from the cost of the POM cost more than PBT, the material is characterized by a more rigid, feel and abs similar, but will not appear Polish phenomenon.

ABS material key caps, whether the low-end keyboard or high-end keyboard, we can see the texture of the material key cap. The material key cap cost compared to the above two to a lot cheaper, ABS material is the biggest disadvantage is prone to Polish phenomenon, especially the opponent more oil friends, not one months to ensure that the key cap glittering, greasy feel drop obvious.

From the cost of comparison, the price from high to low for Pom, PBT, ABS, Polish phenomenon PBT and Pom will not appear, only ABS material key caps, which is the biggest shortage. Feel, different materials feel different, to meet different user preferences, no merits and demerits of the points.

　　The mainstream printing technology has the following several

　　Laser etching is the use of laser directly in the key cap burning out the handwriting, because the carved handwriting is linear, if the user carefully observe the arrows and other handwriting, you can see that it is hollow. This technology is currently used on a wide range of white keyboards with low cost. Feel, the printing technology of the key hat feel general, the advantage lies in the handwriting is not easy to wear, long service life.

Laser Packing method is currently a very popular black keyboard printing technology, the technology first printed with laser etching technology, and then using ink printing method for two times printing. Using the technology of the key cap feel will have a convex feel, feel not so smooth. As with the laser etching technology, the printed handwriting also has a long service life.

In addition to the above two, there is a widely used printing technology-screen printing, the basic principle is in a special production screen covered in the non-writing keyboard, and then the ink on the above scraping, handwriting formed. In order to further protect the handwriting, but also in the form of the formation of a layer of protective plastic film, commonly known as the coating technology.

The last one is also more special-the same-carved technology, the same engraving technology can be roughly understood as the carving method, the writing on the key cap is obviously depressed, the most important feature of the technology is the visual effect prominent, handwriting and key caps are natural and the handwriting will not wear.
