Overview
Fraunhofer IPA brings a structured, end-to-end methodology to inkjet process development. Jan Janhsen, Group Manager at the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation IPA, walks through how the institute moves from initial concept to successful industrial implementation.
The methodology centers on material qualification and parameter optimization. Quantica's NovoJet® Printhead extends the addressable material set — including conductive pastes and other high-viscosity fluids previously unsuitable for jetting — enabling Fraunhofer to qualify materials and refine jetting parameters for production-grade outcomes.
Applications are demonstrated across two demanding sectors. The session closes with implementation cases in printed electronics and dental manufacturing, followed by Q&A — illustrating how high-viscosity inkjet translates into production realities.
