- Keycap abstract "A keycap is a small plastic cover placed over the keyswitch of a computer keyboard. Keycaps are illustrated to indicate the key function or alphanumeric character they correspond to. Early keyboards were manufactured with the keyswitch and keycap integrated in one unit; separate keycaps were introduced to facilitate the production of different keyboard layouts.Typical keycaps of the 1970s and 1980s were produced using two-shot molding, with the markings molded into each keycap in a different color of plastic, but this eventually fell out of favor, as it was more expensive (particularly in tooling costs), and tended to produce keycaps more durable than the equipment on which they were mounted. Modern keycaps are usually labelled by stamping or laser engraving.There exist blank keycaps. These promote touch typing and help build muscle memory because the user can’t "cheat" by looking down at the keyboard. A notable keyboard to use blank keycaps is the Das Keyboard; they are also used on the Filco Majestouch Ninja.The most common plastics used are ABS and PBT.ABS is cheap but is more prone to damage and deformation by chemicals and cleaning agents.PBT lasts longer and is more tolerant to chemicals and cleaning agents, but it costs more.The most common keycaps are cylinder shaped, but laptop keys are usually flat. Old keyboards and retro keyboards are sometimes spherical shaped.Printing of numbers, letters, and symbols on the keycaps are done using pad printing, laser etching, or dye sublimation.Pad printing is the cheapest and most common.Dye sublimination is more expensive and only done by a few companies such as Topre, ZF Electronics, and Unicomp.".
