Flexible surface sensors
We can develop a serial of flexible surface sensors : - Vibration deformation monitoring sensor:
- Water leaks or moisture sensor:
- Electrical motor induction current leaks detection conductive grid:
Stretchable data transfer bus or narrow fabric for Connectivity or robotics :
Stretchable Condustretch narrow bands with several conductive elements are allowing off-set connections or to be linked to machine in movement or other robots.
They also allow washable Connectivity within stretchable SMART textiles:
Thermostretch: Stretchable and washable conductive heating or deicing ribbon
Thermostretch stretchable heating ribbons are similar to Condustretch but adapted to strainfull heating applications :
- "N" non insulated or "I" insulated versions exist.
- Designed for low voltage (3 to 24 volts).
- Easily inserted within garments.
In insulated version, they will withstand washing processes while keeping their stretchability
- Quelques exemples d'applications ou l'élasticité peut etre intéressante: (réservée aus industriels transformateurs)");?>
- diving suit or heating garment
- motorbile seats, vest or car battery connected car seat heating pads
- accessories or heating jackets for animals
- medical or veterinary applications
- heating accessories for incubators or livestock, or for sprouting seedings or forcing plants
- deicing or pre-heating of pipes or industrials containers
This list is of course not exhaustive and can be extended!
Condustretch : Electro conductive stretchable connecting BUS narrow fabric, with insulated conductive wires
Stretchable conductive Narrow fabrics Condustretch are perfectly adapted to sensor connexions, data or energy transfer within washable multilayers structures or composite parts :
Standard version or Condustretch duo (input and output):
- Can help to pre-position the connections within thermoplastic flat parts which will later undergo thermoforming or press-forming.
- A version exists with several conductive yarns in parallel which makes a data bus elastic in all directions (contrary to "flex" electronics circuits).
- They are well adapted to sport or medical clothes or for robotics.
- Specific versions with controlled elongation are adapted to strain monitoring.
- Connection within washable clothes is one of the main applications of the Condustretch.
Multi conductive yarns Condustretch version:
- Bus élastique possédant un grand nombre de conducteurs ultrafins isolés idéale pour les utilisation en robotique, connectique complexe ou élements noyés dans une structure thermoplastique ou thermoformable.
- Existe également avec un espace central pour permettre une couture facile au centre.
