PRODUCTION PIEZOELECTRIC BUTTONS

From design to manufacturing

We produce a wide range of piezoelectric switches, perfect for a wide variety of applications. These components stand out for their high reliability and exceptional longevity, ideal for particularly demanding environments.

Pas Series Piezo Buttons

Piezoelectric switches exploit the properties of piezoelectricity, the ability of specific materials to produce an electric charge when subjected to mechanical stress. They are highly reliable control devices designed to ensure superior performance even in the most challenging environments. Thanks to piezoelectric technology, they have no moving mechanical parts, ensuring silent operation, long life, and exceptional wear resistance.

Main features:

  • Piezoelectric technology with no moving parts
  • Exceptional durability (up to millions of actuations)
  • High resistance to shock, vibration and tampering
  • High IP protection (up to IP68/IP69K, depending on the model)
  • Body in stainless steel or anodized aluminum
  • Options with LED lighting in various colors
  • Works even with gloves, water, or dirt
  • Easy installation and compatible with most panels

    Made with an anodized metal or stainless steel body, they offer optimal protection against water, dust, chemicals, and vandalism. The fully sealed surface provides a high level of waterproofing, making them ideal for outdoor, industrial, and extreme operating conditions.

    These buttons provide quick and precise activation via light pressure, with optional visual feedback via integrated LEDs. The minimalist and robust design makes them perfect for control panels, access systems, professional machinery, medical devices, kiosks and public transport equipment.

    ADVANTAGES

    Piezo switches use solid-state technology, which eliminates mechanical parts subject to wear and ensures an extremely long operating life, exceeding 50 million actuations.

    Efficiency

    This feature makes them ideal for critical industrial environments where long-term reliability is essential. The button surface is smooth and fully sealed, preventing the ingress of liquids, dust, or contaminants. This makes them particularly suitable for environments requiring frequent washdowns, such as the medical and food industries.

    The excellent environmental protection rating, certified IP68 and IP69K, is ensured by the switch’s monoblock construction. Furthermore, the device does not require an external power supply to operate. The robust design with a threaded metal body, together with the vertically integrated solution developed by, completes a compact, durable, and high-performance solution.

      Technological Foundations

      The Piezoelectric Effect: This is the property of certain materials to generate an electric potential in response to mechanical stress. Piezo switches use a solid-state switching technology based on the properties of piezoelectric crystals and the application of the direct effect. The switching elements feature the piezoelectric component integrated into the back of a thin metal surface; their dimensions are calibrated to meet the desired pressure force and specific application requirements.

      The Vanguard of Systems

      The Excellence of Piezo Technology A distinctive advantage lies in the absence of moving parts – such as contacts, springs, or actuators – resulting in a drastic reduction in potential failure and wear, significantly extending the product’s lifecycle. The flat actuation surface is completely sealed, preventing the intrusion of liquids or other contaminants up to IP68 protection levels.

      Design and Protection

      Internal electronics are fully protected through an integral resin potting process, shielding components from the external environment and ensuring they are impervious to water, oil, and impurities. This design blends a refined, contemporary aesthetic with maximum protection for the control systems. The result is a smooth, seamless surface that is exceptionally easy to maintain.
