Printed electronics has been described as the convergence of printing with electronics. Which explains why a manufacturer of equipment for the gravure printing industry is expanding into the printed electronics market.
What gravure excels at also applies to printed electronics -- extremely accurate cell placement; cell depths for unparalleled ink laydown; stability of data; and very long runs.
From an engraving machine to a micro-machining system was a logical step for Daetwyler R&D.
Printed electronics is not the only application for gravure printing -- it also works for RFID, lenticular lenses, medical strips, optics, solar films, security work and embossing.
