CNC Metal Mechanical Keycaps Prototyping Machining |
Die-casting + Custom CNC Metal Mechanical Keycaps |
||
| CNC prototyping plays an important role in custom CNC metal mechanical keycap fabrication. CNC keycap designs are precisely manufactured using CNC machining machines. A digital 3D model of the keycap is first created, which is then translated into machine instructions. A CNC machine then mills or engraves the keycaps from a solid block of metal, ensuring accuracy and consistency. |
The die-casting process is also commonly used to customize CNC mechanical keycaps, which produce keycaps with excellent precision and durability through die-casting. The cost of CNC machining is higher than that of die-casting. For mass production, the die-casting process is generally used to customize CNC-machined metal mechanical keycaps to ensure the consistency of parts and save costs. |
