We develop scalable and digital printing processes (including 3D printing of electronics) for generative manufacturing
of functional components (with optional integration of classic components).
Possible applications include the printing of electrical conductors, sensors or fluorescent structures.
We cover the entire process chain for your application:

Environmental, bioanalytical and diagnostic sensor technology combined with smart microfluidic lab-on-a-chip and organ-on-a-chip systems
Cost-effective solutions by extending the functions of classic LED-based lighting systems in the areas of Visible Light Communication, Visible Light Positioning and Visible Light Sensing
R2R-UV-NIL pilot line for the continuous and cost-effective production of micro- and nanostructures on flexible large-area film substrates
Complete solutions from optical simulation, mastering and prototyping to the transition to high volume, cost effective production of optical structures and components
Reusable materials, components and compounds and their applications, e,g, coatings developed in-house for UV imprint lithography (NILcure®)
Compact solutions for the Future of Quantum and Optical Technologies
Printable sensor inks and sensors with piezoelectric, pyroelectric and magnetoelectric features
Additive manufacturing thanks to new design and simulation tools, new materials and the realisation of special topological structures
Ultrashort laser pulses to directly write 3D microstructures in a variety of different materials
Functional coating processes: Plasma and vacuum coating (PVD, PA-CVD), atmospheric pressure plasma coating processes as well as digital printing processes
Laser welding, laser alloying and laser cladding, with a particular focus on materials expertise
