We provide many types of
Electrodes and Sensors for the medical industry, such as conductive medical electrodes used in iontophoresis, or more complex circuitry used for analysis or disposable biosensors. Additionally, we have special thermo chromic ink which changes color with changes in temperature commonly used in battery tester products. We offer specialty ink which changes resistance according to the amount of force applied. This makes an excellent device that can act as a force sensor. Another application requires a Hall effect device to be attached to a flex circuit, using a conductive epoxy. This is accomplished with a proprietary WEDC process, which works equally well with other surface mounted devices.
