Cost-effective and flexible sensors for humidity monitoring
Textile sensors for moisture measurement: detection for precise monitoring in production and products
Are you looking for intelligent and cost-effective moisture monitoring for your production and products? Embro’s customized B2B solutions support you in ensuring the highest quality standards. Whether for monitoring in the production process or for direct integration into your products – we develop tailor-made sensor solutions, from the smallest formats in the centimeter range to large-scale solutions over several meters.
The basis of our textile moisture sensors for moisture monitoring is a fine wire that is applied precisely and cost-effectively to a textile carrier material using technical embroidery. This innovative technology enables a flexible sensor solution that detects moisture and wetness with high accuracy, for example by changing resistance. This offers numerous advantages in production: From the optimization of drying processes to the monitoring of material moisture in real time, our sensors help to ensure product quality, avoid waste and reduce production costs.
Moisture monitoring in production
Ensuring product quality:
- Moisture sensors enable precise monitoring during production and ensure that materials and components maintain optimum moisture levels. This prevents the development of defects such as material damage, mold growth or bonding errors.
Improvement in process reliability:
- Real-time moisture monitoring in sensitive production steps enables faults or deviations to be detected at an early stage. This helps to make production processes more stable and efficient.
Extending the service life of products:
- Moisture sensors prevent long-term damage such as corrosion, electronic defects or structural weakening. This leads to a longer shelf life for the end products, which is a decisive competitive advantage, especially in the automotive and electronics industries.
Reduction of production costs and waste:
- By detecting errors during production, the number of rejects is significantly reduced. This minimizes rework, saves material and reduces production costs, which is a great added value, especially for high-quality products or expensive materials.
”We manufacture textile sensors exactly according to your individual requirements.
