DMP-2850

The Dimatix Materials Printer (DMP) is a benchtop materials deposition system designed for micro-precision jetting a variety of functional fluids onto virtually any surface, including plastic, glass, ceramics, and silicon, as well as flexible substrates from membranes, gels, and thin films to paper products. A complete turnkey system, the DMP facilitates developing and testing manufacturing processes and product prototypes. It also can be used for prototyping of products from flexible circuits, RFID tags and displays to DNA arrays, and wearable electronics. By employing inexpensive exchangeable cartridges that researchers can fill with their own fluid materials, the DMP system minimizes waste of expensive fluid materials, thereby eliminating the cost and complexity associated with traditional product development and prototyping.

The Dimatix Materials Cartridge is a cartridge-based inkjet printhead used with the DMP. Based on FUJIFILM Dimatix’s proprietary Silicon MEMS technology, the Dimatix Materials Cartridge is designed for high- resolution, non-contact jetting of functional fluids in a broad range of applications. The cartridge can deposit features to fabricate products such as organic thin-film transistors (TFTs) and printed circuits. In biotechnology, the Dimatix Materials Cartridge allows researchers to closely pack large numbers of elements in DNA arrays, to permit more accurate and efficient analyses.
