Jasper Keyboards High-Performance Medical HMI Solutions

For more than two decades, Jasper Keyboards has been a trusted partner to the medical device industry, providing custom membrane switches and touchscreen interfaces that meet the highest standards of durability, hygiene, and ease of use. Designed for demanding clinical environments, our human machine interfaces (HMIs) help original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) develop intuitive and reliable user controls for advanced medical devices.

Seamless, Sterile, Professional Interfaces

In the medical field, cleanliness is paramount. That’s why our custom medical keyboards feature a continuous smooth surface covering the display, buttons, and embedded electronics, eliminating crevices where contaminants can accumulate. This flat construction is easy to sterilize and ensures compliance with strict hygiene protocols.

Expert Insight: Based on our experience providing HMI components to surgical device manufacturers, smooth-surface keyboards can reduce device cleaning time by up to 30%, resulting in faster device turnover in the operating room.

Why Jasper Medical Interfaces Stand Out

With over 23 years of engineering excellence in membrane switch manufacturing, Jasper Keyboards ensures that each medical interface is not only durable and reliable, but also ergonomically designed for medical professionals working in high-stress environments.

Key Performance Features:

  • Sealed: Prevents liquid ingress and protects internal circuitry
  • Chemical and Solvent Resistant: Resists corrosive disinfectants and alcohol-based cleaners
  • Temperature Resistant: Operates reliably in cold and hot environments
  • Daily Wear and Tear Protection: Durable and uncompromising performance
  • EMI/ESD/RFI Shielding: Ensures reliable operation in sensitive electronic environments

Integrated Touchscreen Interfaces for Medical Devices

Jasper Keyboards offer complete touchscreen + display solutions designed for clinical-grade reliability. Our bonded touchscreens integrate seamlessly with graphic overlays, membrane keypads, and even bezeled systems to create fully enclosed, value-added solutions that support advanced medical workflows.

Whether you’re developing a new infusion pump or upgrading a diagnostic panel, our bonded display assemblies can help reduce glare, improve image clarity, and prevent moisture intrusion—even after thousands of wipes.
