Before manufacturing a stylus, it is important to understand its operating principle. The stylus works by transferring an electrical charge from the hand to the tip of the pen, which then changes the magnetic field and applies force to the screen, enabling the capacitive touch screen to function.
To make the stylus work, you just need to transfer the charge from your hand to the pen’s tip.
1 Step 1: Remove the pen cartridge
Start by removing the pen core, leaving only the pen body.
2 Step 2: Cut small pieces of cotton
Cut a small piece of cotton and insert it into the tip of the ballpoint pen. Leave some cotton outside and secure it with tape.
3 Step 3: Proceed to wrap silver
Wrap a piece of silver around the pen’s neck and secure it with tape. Always remember to touch this piece of foil when using the pen.
4 Step 4: Wet the cotton pad
Lightly moisten the cotton swab with water. This will not damage the touch screen.
In just a few quick and simple steps, you can create your own handy stylus. If the stylus becomes less sensitive over time, you can moisten the cotton ball at the tip of the pen and continue using it.
