Question 1

Do you accept low-volume or prototype membrane switch orders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TAVO runs lower minimum order sizes than most membrane switch factories, so engineering samples, pilot builds and low-volume batches are supported. The final MOQ depends on the construction (dome type, backlighting, FPC or PCB layer) and is confirmed after drawing review.

Question 2

Which files and details are needed to start a custom membrane switch project?

Accepted Answer

Please send a 2D drawing (DXF, DWG, AI or PDF), the graphic artwork with Pantone references, key layout, required tactile feel, backlighting needs, connector or tail termination, operating environment and annual quantity. Our engineers return a DFM review with stack-up recommendations.

Question 3

What materials and constructions can TAVO build?

Accepted Answer

Graphic overlays in PET or polycarbonate with matte, gloss or textured finishes and clear windows; printed silver circuits on PET, flexible copper FPC or rigid PCB circuits; metal dome or polydome tactile keys; embossed keys; LED and LGF backlighting; metal or FR4 backers; capacitive touch layers; OCA optical windows; and silicone rubber keypads.

Question 4

How is quality controlled?

Accepted Answer

All processes run in-house under an ISO 9001 quality management system. Products are verified with computer circuit testers, button life-cycle test units, programmable humidity and temperature chambers, xenon lamp aging chambers and salt fog chambers, plus finished product inspection before shipment.

Question 5

Do you provide OEM and ODM services?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TAVO offers full customization and design-based customization: our 10-person design team converts concept sketches or existing panels into production-ready drawings, and the process is supported by more than 30 senior technicians with over 15 years of membrane switch experience.

Question 6

Which markets does TAVO export to?

Accepted Answer

Main markets are North America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe and the Middle East, with active customers in more than 20 countries including the United States, Germany, Italy, France, Canada, Switzerland, Belgium, Portugal, Turkey, Israel, India, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand.
