Ink-Jet Printer (MicroFab)

Jetlab® 4, MicroFab Technologies Inc.
PiQuET Laboratory
Easy to use, it's a cost effective ink-jet printing platform, perfectly suited for a laboratory scale to allow preliminary microdispensing investigations and to explore the feasibility of special inks printing. The proprietary piezoelectric drop-on-demand technology allows to print on both rigid and flexible surfaces and to develop customized inks for applications in Organic Electronics, Sensors, Biomedical Research and Medical Devices, Nano-metal conductors, Drug Delivery and many others.
Software controlled X-Y positioning - 160x120 mm² substrate size & print area - X-Y Accuracy / Repeatability: ±30 μm unidirectional / ±20 μm - Printing speed: 50 mm/s - Manual Z axis control of printhead height - Print-on-the-Fly (straight and/or curved in any direction) or Point-to-Point printing - Raster & vector printing modes - Complex print job definition through scripting - Software based rotation correction - CCD camera for drop observation mounted at 15°, allowing drop impact visualization and coarse substrate alignment - Manual pneumatics controls - JetDrive drive electronics unit with bipolar and arbitrary waveform modes, and single and burst modes.
We firmly believe that one of the Group’s strengths lies in the transdisciplinary approach that stems from active collaboration between experts from different fields, crucial for achieving results in both research and technological transfer.
