Smart textiles: wearable textiles with intelligent functions

Technical embroidery: This is how intelligent textiles are created

Using computer-controlled embroidery machines specially designed for technical embroidery, we lay and fix conductive threads, strands, wires, or heating conductors on textile carrier materials. The embroidery technique enables a permanent and highly flexible connection of the conductors to the carrier material. This is how smart textiles are created for a wide range of applications.

Advantages of technical embroidery for smart textiles

Using the embroidery process, we can lay, among other things, the finest strands (down to 0.04 mm), coated threads, optical fibers, tubes, or other sensitive materials with the highest precision and reproducibility, which are difficult or impossible to process with other manufacturing processes.

A key advantage is the free choice of material and carrier materials.

Together with you, we develop embroidered technical textiles that are perfect for your application and further processing of your products.

The technology of technical embroidery offers you decisive advantages over conventional manufacturing processes:

✓ Smart textiles are highly conductive and at the same time flexible, stretchy and kink-resistant
✓ Computer-controlled embroidery machines guarantee maximum precision and reproducibility
✓ The finest strands (down to 0.04 mm) and sensitive materials can be processed
✓ The shape, size, conductor, and carrier materials can be freely defined
✓ Conductive textiles can be produced efficiently and cost-effectively
