Przegląd produktu
A trackball is a functional interface component. Diameter, roundness, surface condition, colour and pattern can directly affect movement, sensor tracking and the user’s interaction with the finished equipment.
The current product family uses unsaturated polyester resin and supports both optical and mechanical applications. Final compatibility must be tested in the customer’s actual sensor, bearings, rollers and housing before mass production.
Functional Design and System Compatibility
- Optical systems require a surface and pattern that the selected sensor can track consistently.
- Mechanical systems depend on diameter, roundness, surface smoothness and stable contact with rollers or bearings.
- Pantone-based colours, selected printed patterns, graphics and logos can be evaluated for OEM projects.
- The trackball sphere is supplied as a component. Application images must not imply that SDBALLS supplies the complete mouse, control panel or medical equipment.

Przewodnik doboru materiałów
| Opcja materiałowa | Primary Advantage | Ograniczenie | Typical Fit |
| Unsaturated polyester trackball | High-gloss finish and colour or pattern customization | Compatibility must be proven in the actual system | Optical and mechanical trackball assemblies |
| POM engineering ball | Low friction and dimensional stability | Different optical and cosmetic behaviour | Valves, bearings and sliding mechanisms |
| Stainless steel ball | Strength, weight and wear resistance | High density and limited colour customization | Mechanical components rather than typical optical trackballs |
| Kula ceramiczna | Hardness, wear resistance and electrical properties | Brittle and higher cost | High-performance bearings and special mechanisms |
Manufacturing and Process Control
A project may include resin formulation and colour control, forming or casting, curing, precision grinding, polishing, pattern or logo processing, cleaning and final inspection. Process details and appearance limits must follow the approved sample and purchase specification.
Quality Control and Inspection
- Diameter and tolerance inspection
- Roundness inspection
- Surface and visual inspection
- Colour sample approval when applicable
- Pattern or logo approval when applicable
- Functional testing in the customer’s assembly
- Batch identification and document-status confirmation
Opcje pakowania
Use individual separators, trays, clean bags, cartons or customer-specific packaging according to diameter, surface sensitivity and quantity. Protect high-gloss and printed surfaces from scratching, rubbing and colour transfer during transport.
