Mechanical Reliability and Lifetime
Cards in this group · 4
- C10.16.1A physical control’s life is usually measured in presses or turns it can survive
- C10.16.2Mechanical wear changes key travel and damping feel gradually, rather than failing all at once
- C10.16.3High-use controls need a higher rated life than low-use ones
- C10.16.4The gradualness of mechanical failure lets it affect operation before it is noticed
