A coated structure with a monitoring system includes a base having a base surface, a coating system having one or more layers of cured coat providing protection against surface degradation and being joined to the base surface in a base interface and extending in a thickness direction to an outer coating surface, at least one electrode made from a conductive material embedded in the coating system. The monitoring system is configured to generate an input signal in the at least one electrode and to read an output signal from the at least one electrode, and from the output signal, to determine cracking of the one or more layers of cured coat.

A coated structure with a monitoring system, the structure comprising a base having a base surface, a coating joined to the base surface in a base interface and extending in a thickness direction to an outer coating surface, a sensor comprising at least one electrode embedded in the coating, an I/O device configured to generate an input signal in the sensor and to read an output signal from the sensor, a data logger configured to log the output signal from the I/O device, and a computer unit configured to use the logged signal from the data logger. To provide improved information related to the condition of the structure or coating, the computer unit is configured to determine at least two separate indexes, each index related to a property of the coating or the structure.

A printer is configured for printing with conductive ink for applying a conductive pattern to a surface including a wheeling structure for moving the printer over the surface and a transfer unit for applying a layer of electrically conductive ink to the surface. To provide accurate printing with the ability to obtain fine tolerances, the transfer unit has a printing drum rotatable about a printing drum axis and defining a printing drum periphery moving between a first zone and a second zone by rotation of the printing drum. The printing drum periphery, in the first zone, receives the conductive ink and in the second zone transfers the ink to the surface.
