Do you want to collect and use real-time data with your product or component to improve the health, performance, safety, comfort and efficiency of your applications?
Textile sensors can be seamlessly integrated into fiber preforms and sensor mats.
At TFP, we work with you to develop a custom-fit sensor mat in terms of shape, size and sensor layout, as well as the type of data transmission. We embroider the sensors and conductor tracks onto a carrier material that you can process easily and that best meets the requirements of your application.
Capture environmental data, monitor processes or improve the user experience to ensure the performance, efficiency and safety of the products and processes in which your components are used.
We process the finest strands down to 0.04 mm, coated threads and other sensitive materials that are difficult or impossible to process using conventional production methods. When integrated into smart textiles, our wash-resistant textile sensor mats offer a high level of comfort and impress with their textile feel.
No matter what challenge you are currently facing with your product or component, let us work together to find a way to integrate innovative functions.
Together with you, we develop a sensor layout for fiber composite materials that meets all the requirements of your specific application and ensures that the sensors monitor all critical areas in the fiber composite where damage can occur.
The sensors integrated into the fiber composite mats detect changes in certain parameters such as pressure, tension, temperature, humidity or other relevant physical or chemical variables that could indicate possible damage to the material.
Detect potential damage to fiber composite structures at an early stage before it causes serious problems. Reduce maintenance costs and increase the safety of your customers at the same time.
Integrate these and other functions with embroidered functional threads:
Cost-efficient production of complex preforms
Complex patterns, layers or arrangements of fibers in preforms for precise reinforcement
Lightweight fibers and carrier materials, but high rigidity due to optimal fiber orientation
Individual combination of lightweight fibers (carbon, glass fiber, aramid, basalt, ...) and metals
Seamless integration of heating wires or sensor threads in fiber preforms
Production with high repeat accuracy in small and large series
We manufacture complex preforms and sensor mats with customized functional integration to suit your industrial application. Integrate our finished semi-finished products into your production in just one work step. Save working time for the placement of many components and reduce sources of error in the production process of your components or products. Replace many work steps with a preform with functional integration or sensor mat.
We embroider various sensors, e.g. pressure and strain sensors, onto a textile carrier material. This results in material-homogeneous fiber preforms with functional integration or semi-finished products for your sensor mats, which you can embed seamlessly into your product.

Sensor arrays with conductor tracks offer precise monitoring and data transmission in various applications. These arrays consist of an arrangement of sensors that are placed on fiber composites with integrated conductor tracks, for example. The data recorded in real time is output by several sensors simultaneously.
We integrate strands or wires for data acquisition using sensors directly into your fiber preforms.
Collect data from multiple sensors simultaneously and obtain comprehensive information to make good data-based decisions.
Our highly flexible sensors can be integrated on a variety of carrier materials to create intelligent textiles. The textile sensors can be used for pressure measurement, as RFID identification and as temperature-resistant NFC antennas, among other things.
The data recorded by the sensors is transmitted in real time, e.g. via:
The type of data transmission depends on your desired application.
