Nano Dimension Presents Production-Grade Printed Capacitors for PCBs
September 12 2019 - 2:30AM
Nano Dimension Ltd., a leading additive
electronics provider for electronics (NASDAQ, TASE: NNDM),
announced today that it has developed 3D printed capacitors with
the Company’s pioneering DragonFly additive manufacturing system.
These capacitors are embedded in the body of the additively
manufactured printed circuit boards (PCBs), saving space and
eliminating the need for assembly. This breakthrough in the
additive manufacturing of electronics validates the manufacturing
applicability of built in capacitors in PCBs printed with the
award-winning DragonFly system, the only precision additive
manufacturing system of its type.
Nano Dimension’s extensive testing with
capacitors of different 3D dimensions have shown consistent results
with statistically validated data. The repeatability results show
less than 1% variance. The technology uses the same dielectric and
metal traces as in the additively manufactured PCB yielding
capacitors with a capacitance range from 0.1nF to 3.2nF. The
successful results are based on over 260 tests with 30 different
additively manufactured capacitors dimensions.
By integrating capacitors using additive
manufacturing, electronics designers and manufacturers can avoid
what is often a time consuming, multi-step assembly process, as the
DragonFly prints the entire capacitor and PCB in one print job.
This allows companies to reduce the fabrication time and overcome
many of the challenges imposed by traditional production
techniques.
Additively manufacturing capacitors within the
inner layers of circuits also can free space to meet the
ever-increasing trend towards miniaturization and flatness of
electronic devices for consumer, industrial and military
applications. With extra space, designers may pack more
functionality on the circuit board and shrink component size - all
without compromising reliability.
Capacitors of this kind are primarily used to
filter electrical noise and ripple voltage for a wide range of
applications, including RF transmission lines, audio processing,
radio reception and power circuit conditioning.
“The test results clearly show that with the
DragonFly system our customers can achieve repeatability comparable
to that of traditional processes in short run manufacturing of
capacitors using 3D printing,” said Amit Dror, CEO of Nano
Dimension. “Along with high accuracy, miniaturization and space
saving on the board, these are key factors in the electronics
production process and next generation electronics
applications.”
