Contact: Marco van Hoorn Email: info@keirontechnologies.com Phone: +31 (0)40 209 7074 Laser-Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) printing is a high precision, non-contact method of printing materials that cannot be deposited through existing print processes. Roland Biemans, Founder/Owner of LMNS, a group offering independent print industry expertise, delves into the technology and its uses. The intelligent electronic skin The printing industry is ever-expanding into new application fields. Besides long-accepted traditional processes, innovative technology paves the way toward digital and hybrid methods that allow going beyond promotional and decorative printing. In particular, where it concerns functional and industrial printing, the search for alternatives continues when screen, transfer or inkjet processes are unable to offer a solution. One such alternative is LIFT, or Laser-Induced Forward Transfer printing; a high precision, non-contact method to print materials that are too viscous, too expensive or simply too difficult to be deposited through existing print processes. "LIFT is based on the principle of using laser pulses to jet material off of a donor plate for deposition onto a receiving substrate" Inkjet is known for its versatility in various industries, notably promotional graphic...

Speaker: Simon Nieh | Company: Front Edge Technology | Date: 9-10 Feb 2022 | Full Presentation A stable solid-state electrolyte material is only part of the solution to an all-solid- state Lithium battery. Li ionic conductivity in cathode is as important for energy density, power density and charge rate. The morphology of metallic lithium formed on electrolyte surface when charging is a major factor controlling the safety and cycle life. This presentation will discuss the cathode and anode development at Front Edge Technology for a LiCoO2/LiPON/Li battery system.

and superior sustainability Speaker: Ofer Shochet | Company: Copprint| Date: 10-11 March 2021 | Full Presentation The future of printed electronics is Copper. Conductive Copper inks are ushering in a new era of printed electronics, empowering ubiquitous conductivity. In this presentation, we will review Copper pastes, which are superior to silver pastes and to etching techniques. These pastes are suitable for various substrates such as Paper, PET, PI, Glass, Aluminum, Alumina, FR4, silicon wafers and photovoltaic wafers. We will review different applications such as printed antennas, heaters, flexible circuits, PCBs, and displays. We will demonstrate that a very high level of conductivity can be obtained with Copprint’s Nano-Copper pastes while dramatically reducing costs and using simple, low-cost equipment and under-air processing. All our Copper inks are commercially available for purchase.

Speaker: Mike Rosenberg | Company: Prieto Battery | Date: 9-10 Feb 2022 | Full Presentation While the electric vehicle market is growing exponentially, there are still significant issues with the lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries that are powering those vehicles. Auto companies are still looking for batteries that can provide longer driving ranges, can be charged in the same amount of time as today’s petrol cars, can start at temperatures as low as -30 oC and are safer than today batteries, which may have thermal runaways or fires in accidents and upon charging. Prieto is developing an advanced 3-dimensional (3D), solid-state, rechargeable lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery that will address these issues and enable a complete transition to electric vehicles. Prieto’s advanced 3D batteries will have higher energy density than today’s Li-ion batteries, which translates to significantly longer ranges in electric vehicles. The 3D batteries can be charged in 3 to 15 minutes and can operate at temperatures ranging from -30 oC to 120 oC. In addition, these batteries will be safer than traditional Li-ion batteries, since they use a solid polymer electrolyte versus a liquid electrolyte, thus eliminating possible thermal runaways and fires. While improving the performance of the batteries is paramount to improving electric vehicle performance and enabling a complete transition to electric vehicles, being able to manufacture at low-cost and high-volume is equally important. The design of Prieto’...
