5-Axis Platform for Producing 3D Printed Antenna and Sensors

Optomec offers its Aerosol Jet 5X system for printing 3D electronics. According to the company, the system delivers the precision and flexibility required to produce high resolution 3D printed electronics, such as conformal antennas, sensors and circuits used in consumer electronics, automotive, aerospace and medical applications. "Equipped with an Optomec Sprint Print Module and a 5-axis coordinated motion platform, the Aerosol Jet 5X system is ideally suited for 3D printed micro-electronics development applications," said a company spokesperson.

The Aerosol Jet 5X system can also be optionally configured with an Optomec Marathon Print Module, extending the printer's capabilities from prototyping to low volume production applications. For high volume production applications, Optomec also offers a scalable version of the Marathon Print Module that can be configured with up to four print heads for integration into production platforms.

The advanced Aerosol Jet 5X platform was specifically developed to enable a new generation of lighter weight, high performance micro-electronic devices such as smart phones, tablets and sensors - all of which are used within the Internet of Things.

Using its patented material input and aerodynamic deposition capabilities, the Aerosol Jet 5X can print feature sizes ranging from 10 microns up to millimeters in width. The system's 5-axis motion platform enables a print envelope of 200 mm x 300 mm x 200 mm. The Aerosol Jet 5X supports a wide variety of functional materials, including conductive inks, dielectrics, polymers and adhesives and can deposit these materials on low temperature substrates enabling a range of applications.
