3D-printing technology is a global and Canadian strategic theme in manufacturing. Specially, 3D-printed electronic systems are the subjects attracting continuous attention from both the academic and industrial communities. 3D-printed electronics is a technical trend to realize wearable electronics and cost-efficient electronics. Moreover, 3D-printed Printed Circuit Board (PCB) technology will become a popular technology in small and medium-sized enterprises because of less requirement on infrastructure investment, which is a tendency for electronics industry. The successful demonstration of the proposed wood-derived 3D-printed PCB manufacturing with high potential to be scaled to mass production level is industrially valuable. This will greatly help the development both in eco-friendly electronic material market as well as in 3D-printed electronics manufacturing industry in Canada. The highly interdisciplinary nature of this project involves cross-fertilization of additive-manufacturing across several disciplines, including material science, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. The challenges addressed in this project represent new research frontiers in PCB manufacturing, eco-friendly cellulose composite materials, polymer science, and even advanced manufacturing. The proposed projects will drive countless innovations: e.g. in sensors, robotics, or sustainable manufacturing with products that include advanced sustainable PCBs and embedded electronics. The manufacturing process will reduce the costs of production, reduce energy consumption, and replace inefficient or toxic manufacturing techniques with greener alternatives. Environmental benefits are anticipated as Canada strives to meet its carbon reduction targets through reductions in energy consumption and use of rare materials for PCB production. Further, the broad training of HQP, encompassing additive manufacturing development, will produce highly valuable engineers ready to enhance Canada's position as a leader in PCB with innovative new patents, processes, devices and start-up companies.

3D打印技术是全球和加拿大制造业的战略主题。特别是，3D打印电子系统是吸引学术界和工业界持续关注的主题。3D打印电子产品是实现可穿戴电子产品和低成本电子产品的技术趋势。此外，3D印刷电路板（PCB）技术将成为中小企业的热门技术，因为对基础设施投资的要求较少，这是电子行业的趋势。成功演示了拟议的木材衍生3D打印PCB制造，具有很大的潜力，可扩展到大规模生产水平，具有工业价值。这将大大有助于加拿大环保电子材料市场和3D打印电子制造业的发展。该项目的高度跨学科性质涉及多个学科的增材制造的交叉施肥，包括材料科学，机械工程和电气工程。该项目所面临的挑战代表了PCB制造、环保纤维素复合材料、聚合物科学甚至先进制造领域的新研究前沿。拟议的项目将推动无数创新：例如传感器、机器人或可持续制造，包括先进的可持续PCB和嵌入式电子产品。制造过程将降低生产成本，减少能源消耗，用更环保的替代品取代低效或有毒的制造技术。由于加拿大努力通过减少能源消耗和使用稀有材料生产多氯联苯来实现其碳减排目标，因此预计会产生环境效益。此外，HQP的广泛培训，包括增材制造开发，将产生非常有价值的工程师，准备通过创新的新专利，工艺，设备和初创公司来提高加拿大作为PCB领导者的地位。
