About Alphasol Tec
Alphasol Tec AG, based in Bütschwil, Switzerland, is a manufacturer of temperature sensors and temperature probes for industrial metrology. With over 15 years of experience in the sensor industry, the company produces robot-assisted thin-film temperature sensors Pt100 and Pt1000, sensor elements with bare or insulated lead wires, and custom temperature and humidity probes. A second core area is the production of high-precision optical apertures and precision parts for microtechnology using electroforming (galvanoplastics) and photo-chemical etching, in which metal foils from 0.05 mm thickness are processed. The range of services also includes cable assembly, micro-stamping and micro-bending, laser welding, coating, metrology with 3D coordinate measuring machines as well as surface roughness measurement. Custom solutions are realized from development through manufacturing to quality assurance. Customers include industries such as medical technology, environmental technology, building automation, mechanical engineering, the food industry and laboratory technology.
