About IL Metronic
IL Metronic Sensortechnik GmbH is a manufacturer based in Ilmenau, Thuringia, specialising in customised sensor technology and UV components. The company develops, manufactures and distributes sensors, sensor modules and electronic devices for UV metrology as well as custom applications. A second business unit comprises custom-developed electrical special glass feedthroughs for conducting currents and signals through different media and atmospheres. Manufacturing includes glass feedthrough assembly, assembly/kitting, electroplating and surface coating, as well as machining using automatic lathe turning technology at the LMB Langewiesen site. Customer requirements are turned into market-ready products in short development cycles; research and development is carried out across departments in cooperation with universities, scientific institutes and networks. Quality is certified under a DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 management system.
