About Project

A push-button (also spelled pushbutton) or simply button is a simple switch mechanism to control some aspect of a machine or a process. The “push-button” has been utilized in calculators, push-button telephones, kitchen appliances, and various other mechanical and electronic devices, home and commercial. In industrial and commercial applications, pushbuttons can be connected together by a mechanical linkage so that the act of pushing one button causes the other button to be released. In this way, a stop button can “force” a start button to be released. This method of linkage is used in simple manual operations in which the machine or process has no electrical circuits for control.
A company just designed a series of electronic devices and entrusted us to make some buttons, which will be assembled on the remote control of the devices. The buttons are printed in an SLA 3D printer and then filled with putties, then painted and silked screen printed with the function names of them.
Our customer is very satisfied that the buttons can perfectly fit in with the devices and the letters are printed clearly and evenly.
