We offer a fast, reliable, and cost-effective solution to get your HMI back in full working order, minimizing downtime and ensuring smooth operation


Understanding HMI Button and Keypad Problems


Many industrial HMIs, especially older models or those designed for harsh environments, use physical buttons and keypads for operator input. These buttons can be individual mechanical switches or part of a membrane keypad. Over time, and with heavy use, these components can fail, leading to operational difficulties.


Common Causes of HMI Button/Keypad Malfunctions


  • Physical Wear and Tear: Repeated pressing of buttons can cause mechanical wear and eventual failure.

  • Contamination: Dust, dirt, liquids, or other contaminants can get inside the buttons or keypad, causing them to stick or become unresponsive.

  • Membrane Keypad Failure: Membrane keypads, which use a flexible membrane with conductive traces, can develop cracks or breaks in the traces, leading to button failures.

  • Internal Component Failure: Problems with the HMI's internal circuitry that interfaces with the buttons/keypad.

  • Corrosion: In harsh environments, corrosion can damage button contacts or keypad traces.
