Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR
Outstanding illumination efficiency
Product characteristics
STC-TR
- Outstanding luminous efficiency of ~94 % transmits light and simultaneously protects against water ingress
- Full light insulation, i.e. no undesired light scattering at all
- Many different lens shapes available for scattering or bundling light
Benefits
- Cost and energy savings thanks to outstanding light transmission
- No need to compromise between strong illumination and preventing undesired light scattering
- No need to calibrate individual windows thanks to the inhomogeneous backlighting of the entire switch
- Significantly greater light transmission enables more complex lighting concepts, such as interlaced optical fibers
- New design options for visible parts are possible thanks to custom keypad colors

What characterizes the Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR?
The Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR offers maximum light transmission with 100 % light isolation. It is suitable for both silicone keypads with chimney windows and with metal domes.
Why have we developed the Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR?
The dynamic and emotional aspects of an automobile have always been fascinating. Whereas factors such as reliability, performance, quality, and price were the most important purchasing criteria in the past, the design, brand, and image are nowadays a competitive advantage and help to differentiate. Whether responsive, family friendly, or elegant, a consistent product design down to the smallest detail is crucial.
Sateco sets the standard when it comes to creating controls and switches and offers expert guidance for executing your complex projects.
We develop your acoustic, haptic, and visual signature using our extensive product portfolio, in-depth knowledge, and years of expertise.
Applications for the Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR
The Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR is used in controls, switches, and buttons with backlight icons.
Typical applications include steering wheel switches in automobiles, charge stop switches in electric vehicles, and coffee machine controls.
Which advantages does the Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR offer?
The highly transparent Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR combines maximum illumination and homogeneous lighting with 100 % water protection. Furthermore, special lens shapes can increase icon illumination.
How is the Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR manufactured?
The Translucent Backlight Window STC-TR is manufactured using a compression molding process. It uses heat and pressure to give a product its final form. In a pre-heated cavity, a vertical press mechanism is used to shape and apply wide-meshed cross-linking to the silicone in its plastic state. The highly transparent window is additionally assembled in several process steps.
Summary
Silicone keypads—particularly the different designs such as the Backlight Chimney STC-BC, the Backlight Window STC-BW, and the Ghost Backlight Window STC-GW—play a key role in highly specialized applications. Equal light scattering and high light intensity make them indispensable components for system and component builders with high innovation and quality standards in the automotive, building automation, industry & freight transport, and consumer goods sectors.
