ActiveMetal Switches offer Engineers and Designers New Possibilities
The Next Generation in switching and sensing technology is ultrasonic resonance associated with so-called "Energy Trapping Theory" which frees designers from the technical specification limitations traditionally associated with conventional electronic or electro-mechanical switching configurations.
This technology has considerable advantages over piezo, capacitive or other sensory systems because it allows considerably thicker materials to be used for front panels and a clearer specification of the sensor area.
Additionally, the switch is continually active which means that functionality is continually under surveillance and not first when the switch is pressed. This makes them particularly suitable for harsh environments and where disaster tolerance is important.
