- Description
- 1) Background: The Operations & Outreach Team at the Natick Soldier Research, Development & Engineering Center (NSRDEC) has a requirement for an inkjet printer to be used in printing prototype frequency selective conductive patterns on textiles in "Microwave Protective Materials" Program 16-165. It will also be used to print prototype sensor circuits in the Tech Venture programs "Multifunctional GHz and THz Wireless Sensing Platform", "'Universal' Graphene-Based Multiplexed Sensors" and other ongoing/future projects at NSRDEC. 2)Requirements: The Inkjet printer system must be compatible with metal particle containing conductive ink, metal paste thinners and as wide an array of solvents as possible. Compatibility with applications in Organic Electronics, Displays, Sensors, Security Printing, Solar Cells. The system must be able to handle complex print jobs including script-based printing, registration for multiple layers, pause between layers, and arbitrary print resolution and direction.
