Bally Ribbon Mills

Product base for embedded electronic technology in aerospace and defense applications

Bally Ribbon Mills (BRM) highlights its proprietary E-WEBBINGS e-textile product base, specifically designed to serve as a customizable base for a wide range of smart textiles used in aerospace and defense applications such as material shielding; parachutes; seating and interior applications; crew safety system components; flight suits; air slides, seatbelts, and flotation devices. BRM E-WEBBINGS are currently being developed and tested for use as stress and strain sensors for NASA’s Artemus program. These smart textiles are conductive fabrics that enable the electronic transmission of data, sensations (light, noise, vibrations, heat, etc.) and power. They allow for smaller final product size, lower weight, optimal user comfort, reduced bill of material and significant cost savings. E-WEBBINGS narrow woven fabrics are made from a wide variety of fibers and conductive elements that allow electronics and digital parts to be embedded in them.
