TOOLINGS

 

WE HAVE SEVERAL DIFFERENT TOOLS FOR EACH DOME SIZE.  WE CAN OFFER A WIDE RANGE OF ACTUATION FORCE (TACTILE PRESSURE) FOR OUR DOMES.  WITH FOUR DIFFERENT TOOLS WE CAN COMPENSATE FOR THE MATERIAL THICKNESS AND HARDNESS VARIATIONS AND  BETTER MEET YOUR ACTUATION FORCE REQUIREMENTS.  OUR STANDARD RANGE OF ACTUATION FORCE IS FROM 8 OZ TO 14OZ (FROM: 220 GRAM TO 400GRAM).  UPON REQUEST WE CAN SUPPLY DOMES WITH ACTUATION FORCES OURSIDE OF OUR STANDARD RANGE.  CUSTOM DOME DESIGNS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE.  WE MAINTAIN OUR OWN IN-HOUSE TOOL & DIE SHOP.
