PrintAblate: Offset printed and Laser Ablated Flexible Circuits - Materials and Processes

该项目的目标是开发和集成新的和复杂的材料和加工技术，这些材料和加工技术在医疗保健和工业市场有潜在需求，在这些市场上，新的低成本数字连接柔性电路可以提供更好的性能特性，从而获得技术和商业优势。最终，高生产率和高盈利能力的集成制造过程将把2D纳米材料转化为组件，从而实现一系列独特的、改变生活的独特的、基于数字连接的照明和传感器产品。Flexotronix Ltd将与Harman Technology、Synergy Devices和诺丁汉特伦特大学合作，创造先进的油墨配方。Flexotronix将在薄塑料片上打印多层墨水。沉积层将通过M-SOLV进行图案化，以定义具有微结构细节的小区域。

The project objective is to develop and inetgrate new and sophisticated materials and processing techniques for which there is a latent demand in the healthcare and industrial markets where new low cost digitally connected flexible electrical circuits can give improved performance characteristics for technical and commercial advantage. Ultimately a high productivity and high profitability integrated manufacturing process will convert 2D nanomaterials into components which enable a broad range of unique novel life changing digitally connected lighting and sensor based products. Flexotronix Ltd will work with Harman Technology, Synergy Devices and Nottinghsam Trent University to create advanced ink formulations. Flexotronix will print multilayers of ink on thin plastic sheet. Deposited layers will be patterend by M-SOLV to define small regions with microstructured detail.
