INDUSTRIES
01 / Marine
Built for the Open Sea
DAVOLIN supplies IP65 / IP68-rated stainless-steel keyboards, optical trackballs and joysticks for ship bridges, offshore platforms, naval vessels and maritime engineering projects. Every maritime product passes salt-spray, wide-temperature (−40 °C to +85 °C) and continuous-vibration testing.
Optional NVIS-compatible backlighting, CAN bus interfacing and class-certified Ex variants are available for navies, merchant fleets and offshore operators.

02 / Industrial Automation
Direct Interface for the Factory Floor
On CNC machining centres, injection-moulding machines, laser cutters, robotic assembly lines and SCADA systems, DAVOLIN industrial keyboards communicate directly with PLCs. USB, RS232, RS485, CAN bus, Modbus and Profinet interfaces are all available out of the box.
IP65 sealing, IK10 impact rating, and resistance to oil mist, metal dust and continuous vibration — comfortable for bare hands, reliable with gloves.

03 / Coal Mining
Built for the Pit & the Face
Surface and underground mining are brutal on equipment — constant coal dust, vibration, water spray and 24/7 operation in −20 °C to +55 °C ambient. DAVOLIN supplies IP65 / IP68 stainless-steel keyboards, optical trackballs and silicone keypads for haul trucks, bucket-wheel excavators, longwall shearers, drill rigs and conveyor control stations.
NVIS-compatible backlight and intrinsically safe (Ex ia I Mb) variants are available for underground coal faces with methane atmospheres.

04 / Medical
Engineered for Clinical Hygiene
Medical imaging, patient monitoring, surgical robotics, blood analysis and clinical information systems all demand ergonomic, easy-to-disinfect input surfaces. DAVOLIN supplies IP65-rated stainless and silicone keyboards with optional antimicrobial coating, certified to RoHS, CE and FCC.
Every surface tolerates repeated alcohol, hydrogen-peroxide and quaternary-ammonium wipe-downs, with custom backlight colours and OEM interfaces that integrate cleanly with HIS and PACS.

05 / Parcel Lockers
24/7 Self-Service, Any Weather
Outdoor smart lockers run round the clock and must resist vandalism, rain, dust and wide temperature swings. DAVOLIN supplies IP65 / IP68 vandal-proof metal keypads, optical trackballs and NVIS-backlit PIN-entry modules for the world’s leading logistics integrators.
Drop-in interfaces for RFID readers, 1D/2D scanners, 4G telemetry and electromagnetic-lock control — already deployed in hundreds of thousands of self-service lockers across more than 20 countries.

06 / Access Control
Reliable Entry, Every Time
Building intercoms, campus turnstiles, bank ATMs, ticketing terminals and industrial control doors all demand compact, hard-wearing, mission-critical input hardware. DAVOLIN supplies compact metal-cap keypads, vandal-proof metal buttons and backlit PIN modules supporting Wiegand, OSDP and RS485.
Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C operation with a 5-year-plus service life, they are the standard input on smart-building, smart-campus and industrial-security installations.

07 / Military & Defence
Mission-Critical, Tamper-Aware
Armoured vehicles, naval combat systems, dismounted soldier C4ISR and forward operating bases all demand input devices that survive shock, vibration, EMI/EMP and 24-hour sustained operation. DAVOLIN supplies MIL-STD-qualified stainless and silicone keyboards, backlit trackballs and rugged pointing devices for tactical vehicles, naval CIC consoles, drone ground stations and field command posts.
NDA-protected development, ITAR-free manufacturing in our Shenzhen facility, and a dedicated defence engineering team that responds within 24 hours to active-project enquiries.
