Sensor technology

Characteristic-data acquisition in main load zones

Thin-film-based sensor technology offers ideal prerequisites for application-oriented solutions and innovations in all aspects of industrial production processes. The Fraunhofer IST has been a leader in the field of thin-film sensor technology for many years and has acquired extensive cross-industry expertise in the fields of sensor technology, layer development and microstructuring. During the production process, universally applicable sensor modules provide reliable and precise data on temperature or force distribution from the main load zones for dynamic online process control.

Individual and flexible with thin-film sensors

At the Fraunhofer IST, we develop thin-film-based sensors and sensor systems on the basis of different physical active principles and integrate them into your application, thereby placing the focus on highly stressed areas and harsh environmental conditions.

The advantages of integrated thin-film sensor technology

The thin-film systems developed at the Fraunhofer IST enable you to acquire in-situ real-time process data in main load zones for the optimization of simulation and production processes as well as for condition monitoring.
