Cherry switch MX Silent is a new mute axis, and then a mute RGB axis will be introduced. The overall design of the mute shaft has not changed much. The most important thing is to add a component from the shaft body, which is the key to the design of the shaft body with mute effect. At present, the new shaft design has introduced a red shaft and a black shaft, and the pressure grams are still 45 grams for the red shaft and 60 grams for the black shaft. The weight changed little, and the stroke was reduced to 3.7 mm
The parameters of acrylic are still the same as those of the previous shaft.
On the left is the new cherry switch MX mute black axis, and on the right is the cherry switch MX mute red axis. The color is slightly different from the previous axis. The black axis is a little gray and the red axis is a little pink. The transparent shaft cover in the picture is RGBMX mute, but at present, the shaft body without RGB LED welding is obtained.
Cherry switch MX mute red is different from the general red axis. The color on the right is lighter, but there is no difference in appearance.
Cherry Switch MX is silent and black, only the shaft body is lighter in color, and the appearance has not changed much regardless of the cover.
After disassembling, you can see the general red shaft on the left and the silent red shaft, reed, spring and shaft itself on the right.
The spring is different from the shaft, only the shaft is obviously different. The number of turns of the spring is almost the same, and there is a white substance under the shaft.
From another perspective, white matter is particularly obvious. This white material is called TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), which can cushion the vibration sound after hitting the bottom.
From another point of view, compared with the normal version, the bottom three claws are made of TPE material.
The silent black axis is also the same design.
Compared with the ordinary shaft, this design reduces the total stroke of the silent shaft from 4-0.4mm to 3.7-0.4 mm In fact, I would say that the reduced feel is similar to that of an O-ring.
In this way, the shaft frame has two more shafts.
In order to test the hand feel, KBT Pure without cover and iron plate was used to replace the shaft.
When using the shaft removal tool to remove the shaft body, only the spring and the shaft body need to be replaced.
After the shaft is removed.
Replace the spring and the mute shaft.
Change w, a, s and d to mute red axis first.
Cover the transparent upper cover.
Change z, x, c to silent black axis, f, g to red axis, v, b to black axis for trial play.
The following is the silent axis test piece.
[Embedded Content] I like the feel of the red shaft itself. In addition to the lighter feel, the echo of the sound is also low. In addition, the sound is reduced more after O-ring, but the feel is still a little defective. After switching to the silent shaft, the sound is much lower, and after hitting the bottom, the sound is lower, and the feel difference is very small. I still like this feeling. At present, only one company has launched this Corsair RGB silent axis keyboard, and I hope other manufacturers can apply it in the future.

Listen to the voice in the video, the voice is really much lower. I also use the old red shaft G80-3494, which is really noisy after a long typing time. .
Mesak Yes, I wish I could get the whole mute shaft! ! !
