Project CERACLAD
Characterization of laser powder cladding for fast, flexible and direct generation of conductive structures on three-dimensional ceramic substrates
Duration: 06/01/2023 – 05/31/2025
The research objective is the qualification and establishment of an efficient and flexible process for the direct generation of three-dimensional ceramic circuit carriers for power electronic applications. To achieve this goal, laser powder cladding is used for selective copper deposition on 3D ceramics.
Project CEEE-ALU
CORNET – Circular Electrical and Electronic Equipment – The Aluminium Option [CEEE-ALU]
Duration: 09/01/2022 – 08/31/2024
The aim of the research project is to validate the suitability of aluminium as a functional housing material for small network devices. In this context, different methods and technologies, which are necessary for the success of the concept, are also examined for their feasibility.
Project MST-MID
Integrated Microsystems on functionalized MID polymer wafers (MST-MID)
Duration: 01/01/2024 – 12/31/2025
As a research objective, a simplified process for the manufacture of eddy current sensors is to be investigated with regard to process complexity and number of process steps. The question whether eddy current sensors can be manufactured without the use of lithography and complex packaging processes is to be answered. For this purpose, the LDS process in combination with plastic injection moulding is to provide the necessary technological foundation.
Project SolEnc
Digital printing of solution-based encapsulation of organic electronics on 3D surfaces
Duration: 10/01/2021 – 09/30/2023
The aim of this research work is to encapsulate printed organic electronics using digital printing processes.
Project KAFE-3D
Combination of additive manufacturing with printed electronics for personalized products
Duration: 09/01/2021 – 08/31/2023
The aim of the research project is to manufacture new types of mechatronic systems by combining MID technology with the possibilities of additive manufacturing.
Project ZUFEK
Development of a reliable spring-based connection technology for digitally manufactured lead structures
Duration: 09/01/2021 – 08/31/2023
The project aims to develop an industrially suitable, spring-based contact element as well as user-friendly design guidelines for it. The final result is a calculation tool that allows companies to design contact elements for printed conductive structures based on defined requirements.
