Why Langir is Your Go-to Choice
Effortless Touch for High-Use Panels
Langir’s 16mm capacitive switches sense finger capacitance changes with 0N force, auto-calibrating to environments like humidity or gloves. Rated 50M cycles, they avoid mechanical failure in kiosks or medical devices. CNC-machined aluminum/stainless housings ensure precise 16mm fit, with IP68/IP69K sealing tested per IEC 60529. Low 7mA non-LED power suits battery systems.
Vandal-Resistant and Hygienic Design
IK10 impact rating withstands heavy abuse, while seamless surface repels dirt and cleans with harsh chemicals. Super-short crust minimizes panel depth for compact builds. Production involves anodizing for durability, sensor integration, and final ESD testing (±15kV air). NPN/PNP outputs (200mA/24VDC) integrate seamlessly with industrial controls.
Adaptive Sensing for Reliable Operation
Adjustable sensitivity adapts via yellow ground wire, maintaining response in wet or variable conditions. Operating temp -20°C to +65°C handles diverse sites. Assembly process: precision housing machining, PCB sensor mounting, wire termination (300mm leads), and calibration burn-in. Momentary/latching options support varied logic needs.
OEM-Ready Electrical and Visuals
5–24VDC supply powers 25mA illuminated versions with LED output sync (e.g., green ON when closed). No moving parts extend life beyond mechanical rivals. Workflow emphasizes RoHS-compliant materials, connector options (HE14), and batch QA for consistent touch thresholds. Ideal for self-service where uptime drives ROI.
From Touch Spec to Scalable OEM Supply
Langir’s workflow ensures custom 16mm capacitive switches deliver consistent performance from prototype to volume.
1. Requirement gathering and design lock
Assess panel constraints, environment (wet/gloved), output (NPN/PNP), and visuals (LED colors). Define sensitivity and housing (aluminum/stainless). This aligns specs early, preventing costly changes for OEM timelines.
2. Prototyping and sensitivity tuning
CNC machine bushings, integrate sensors/LEDs, wire leads (300mm). Test auto-calibration, 0N activation, and IP69K sealing. Client validation confirms IK10 durability and ESD tolerance before scale-up.
3. Tooling and pilot production
Set up for anodizing, PCB assembly, and calibration. Pilots run 50M-cycle simulations, environmental stress (-20°C/+65°C). Tweaks optimize power (7–25mA) and response for your application.
4. Volume manufacturing and testing
Automated lines produce housings, sensors, and wiring. 100% QA checks sealing, impact (IK10), and output. Batches ship RoHS-compliant with traceability for global B2B reliability.
5. Delivery and support
Secure packaging for worldwide shipment. Offer re-runs and monitoring to sustain OEM production without interruptions.
