Printed circuits and sensors

Alper develops resistive and capacitive sensors with silver conductive ink on PET, ensuring precision and reliability. These sensors are suitable for monitoring and detection applications in a range of industrial sectors.

Main features

Alper manufactures printed electronics, specialising in flexible printed sensors. These sensors use a PET (polyethylene terephthalate) substrate, known for its strength and durability. Thanks to these properties, Alper’s flexible printed sensors are used in sectors such as manufacturing and household appliances, where they act as liquid leak detectors. These sensors, when placed under washing machines or dishwashers, can detect the presence of water from the first drop with extremely high sensitivity, making them powerful tools for monitoring and preventing damage caused by accidental leaks.

In addition, Alper’s printed sensors make it possible to integrate IoT technology. One example of the use of Alper’s technology is in smart bins. These compartments, equipped with capacitive sensors, allow the collection and transmission of real-time data to operational centres. This IoT integration facilitates more efficient waste management by monitoring fill levels and optimising collection routes. These technical solutions not only improve operational efficiency, but also help to reduce environmental impact through more efficient waste management.
