Chaire de recherche industrielle dans les collèges du CRSNG en fabrication d'imprimés fonctionnels

物联网（IOT）由越来越多的具有认证、定位和测量功能的物体组成，以允许将某些数据传输给供应链上的指定接收器，包括消费者的使用，以及它们在生命周期结束时的再利用或回收。这些智能功能将通过将有源或无源智能电子元件集成到包装或标签中来实现。有四个客户价值类别将促进这些技术的大规模部署：1。生产成本低；2. 提供完全集成的智能解决方案；3. 柔韧性：柔韧性等物理特性；4. 生命周期，包括尊重环境的生命结束。虽然有许多印刷原型或小规模制造的例子，但通过工业印刷工艺进行大规模生产是例外。尽管工业轮转印刷工艺有许多优点（低成本、灵活性和添加组件），但印刷品生产的规模扩大除了需要当地工业参与者所拥有的图形链的经验专门知识外，还需要纯科学技能和印刷过程工程技能的结合。该工业研究主席的目的是根据物联网所需的功能系统原型设计的现有知识，使轮转印刷方面的现有专业知识合理化，以便：1。展示可打印性和/或创建功能原型；和2。允许它们按照规格以适合市场的生产成本工业化，同时使用可持续的制造方法和环境上可持续的材料。

The Internet of Things (IOT) consists of a growing number of objects equipped with authentication, location and measurement functions to allow the communication of certain data to designated receivers along the supply chain, including their use by the consumer, and their reuse or recycling at end of life. These smart functions will be achieved by the integration of active or passive intelligent electronic components into packaging or labels.There are four customer value categories which will facilitate the deployment of these technologies on a large scale: 1. Low cost of production; 2. Availability of fully integrated, intelligent solutions; 3. Physical characteristics such as flexibility; 4. Life cycle, including an end of life which respects the environment.While there are numerous examples of printed prototypes or small scale manufacture, very large scale production by industrial printing processes is exceptional. Despite the numerous advantages of the industrial rotary printing process (low cost, flexibility and the additive incorporation of components), the scale up of print production requires, in addition to the empirical expertise of the graphic chain held by local industrial actors, a combination of pure science skills and print process engineering skills.The purpose of this Industrial Research Chair is to rationalize the available expertise in rotary printing with current knowledge in the prototyping of functional systems as required by the Internet of Things to: 1. Demonstrate printability and/or to create functional prototypes; and 2. Allow their industrialization for mass markets according to specifications at a production cost suitable to the market, while using sustainable manufacturing methods and environmentally sustainable materials.
