Lamina
Keyboards Ltd. was conceived in 1979 during a trip to a customer
by Nick Morley who was the Sales Director for an Electronics
Component Distributor. Our first customer was one making
scoreboards for a darts system. This was soon followed by
membrane keyboards for a milking parlour and a large keyboard
contract for a back-lit radar display panel, The need to develop
custom keyboards which meet requirements which may be unusual has
become a hallmark of our products. Most of our initial control
panels utilised touch switches but nowadays the vast majority are
tactile keyboards utilising tactile, snap-action switches. We
have made membranes which detect the difference between an empty
and full beer bottle, panels which will not actuate when walked
on by repair personnel wearing hobnail boots, a keyboard which
withstood a simulated nuclear blast and units which can tolerate
being run over by a tank.
We have a wealth of expertise on circuit
design, tactile dome design (made by our subsidiary Snap-dome
Systems(www.snap-dome.com)
and screen printing. We installed our first UV
curing unit for fine line printing and LED/LCD windows in 1990
and have subsequently manufactured our own UV curing equipment.
Our factory in East Sussex was supplemented in 1995 by a German
subsidiary based just outside Munich and in late 2002 by a
production facility in Hong Kong. We export throughout the world
and have continually invested in training our personnel and
updating our equipment.
Our normal service gives a lead
time of less than 7 days from drawing to completed membrane
keyboards and this can be reduced to a same-day service to
customers who have extremely tight deadlines - usually for a new
product about to be shown at an exhibition and the Marketing
Director has decided on a logo change!
