Proof of manufacturing
A world-class roll-to-roll capable pilot factory for printing, component assembly and post processing
The pilot manufacturing lines and laboratories are the key asset in the PrintoCent industrialization and mass production activities. The pilot factory and laboratories, together with the experienced users of them, enables technology development and testing from prototyping to pilot scale production and early market trials. We call this the proof-of-manufacturing! Any company or organization can use the facilities and expertise required to run the machines for:
- Pilot scale manufacturing trials
- Factory planning and construction, machinery selection
- Product technical design and device integration
- Production ramp-up support
- Quality and performance testing
We have a unique combination of over 100 multi-technological experts and a world-class printed electronics pilot factory. We can support our customers in different projects including or combining sustainable electronics, flexible electronics, and structural electronics.
A unique in-house competence from material formulation and process development of pilot-scale roll-to-roll production to multi-technological knowledge of applications and systems. We also have a world-class, award-winning roll-to-roll capable pilot factory for printing, component assembly and post processing.
