Materials and surfaces Geometry and Form Using high-quality metals, we create design elements which conform easily to the shape of your products. Form and functions have almost no limits. Through specific and innovative production processes, Dyna Systems can offer decorative products out of many different materials, but especially metal, and in dimensions and geometry which were difficult to realize until today. We also design unique surface patterns which, besides offering a flawless visual appearance, also cater to the important and functional aspects. Brushing With two-dimensional linear brushing, overall as well as selective patterns can be achieved. Circular “spin” brushing creates interesting metallic surface effects, particularly when done selectively for a visual contrast between a bright and a brushed surface. The range of these visual effects is unlimited. Coating Anodisation can be used to protect the aluminium surfaces from abrasion and corrosion and does allow for dying in a wide range of colors. Alternatively, a protective coating can ensure that your designs not only look good but also that colour, pattern and gloss level are resistant to daily wear, salt, water, gravel, heat, cold, finger scratches, etc. As we design, we consider the functional features of your product. Colours and Gloss-Level Trendy colours, presented in high gloss or matte finish, with or without technical pattern: Through the use of different printing processes we create various effects of high-value impression for you. We offer not only colours, but also selective or threedimensional patterns according to your ideas and concepts. In addition, depending upon your specific surface finish, we are able to apply a certain gloss level to your design. High-quality steel is often lettered by our unique laser inscription process, which will guarantee a corrosion and abrasion free decoration. Imitations Genuine? Or a new reality? We create design variations by simulating the appearance of other materials found in nature, including wood, stone, shells and other metals, such as steel, nickel and copper. Embossing and Haptic Coatings Haptic means “palpable”; a stimulation of the sense of touch that is most effectively achieved with embossing and tactile designs on real-metal surfaces. With our specific processes your designs can have a three-dimensional character, giving them a new sensation. Embossing creates clear cut effects on metal, design adds impressive patterns. A logo, particularly letters or special patterns can stand out in a special way. Focus on corporate design with a permanent impression. Joining Process We have different technologies to combine plastic with shaped metal parts: Crimp-Technology, GlueTechnology and Inmold-Technology. Through new techniques for joining parts like insert-molding, chemical bonding, welding and crimping we achieve two goals: Maximum design variations and a cost-effective series production. With transparent inmolded switches and a cut symbol we can produce illuminated symbols into a surface. Inmolded relief switches in real aluminium The Piezo Relief Switch The Idea A standard piezo switch does not provide any tactile feedback. However, many users prefer a response whether an activation is verified or not. This can be either an audible beep, a vibration of the sensor area or the illumination of the symbols.
