Optomec Showcases Aerosol Jet 3D Printing Systems at Flexible Electronics Conference

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Optomec, a leading global supplier of production grade additive
manufacturing systems for 3D printed electronics, announced today that
the company will showcase its Aerosol Jet systems for 3D
production-grade printed electronics at the SEMI Flex conference, held
this week at the Hyatt Regency in Monterey, California. Optomec will be
offering live demonstrations of the Aerosol Jet 200 system in booth
#2004. In addition to the exhibition, Dr. Kurt Christenson, Optomec
Senior Scientist, will deliver a presentation titled “Electromagnetic
Shielding of Flexible Devices” in the Direct Write and 3D Printing
Session at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 14.

In his presentation, Dr. Christenson will discuss how electronic
circuits often require electromagnetic shielding to suppress radiated
emissions from the circuit, and to protect the circuit against
interference from external and internal electromagnetic sources. This is
particularly true when devices contain both transmitting and receiving
functions. The rigid, sheet-metal shells traditionally used for
electromagnetic shielding cannot be used with flexible circuits. Dr.
Christenson will describe how Aerosol Jet technology is able to deposit
a film of conductive material around the perimeter of die, contacts and
connections to flex circuits to form printed electromagnetic shielding
barriers on both thin, flexible devices and thicker, rigid devices. For

The 2018 FLEX conference is co-located with MEMS & Sensors Technical
Congress (MSTC). This partnership adds a deeper dimension to
the technical and business base of the event. For the past 17 years, the Flexible
Electronics Conference and Exhibition has been witnessing flexible
hybrid electronics grow from a newly established technology to a rapidly
developing technology leading changes in IoT, smart medtech, smart
automotive, smart manufacturing and more. For more information on the
