Frequently asked questions
What makes HPCaP different from other printing technologies?
Unlike droplet-based methods, HPCaP prints without satellite drops or splashes and adapts to uneven surfaces thanks to an integrated AFM with 5 nm Z-precision. It supports a wide range of inks and substrates while using very little ink.
What is the printing resolution?
The printing resolution of HPCaP ranges from 80 µm to 600 nm.
What force is applied to deposit ink with HPCaP technology?
HPCaP deposits ink by capillary force only, through a meniscus formed between the tip and the substrate.
Which industries use HPCaP?
HPCaP addresses applications in semiconductors and advanced packaging, display and display repair, printed electronics and biosensors, MEMS, watchmaking, aerospace, defence, and advanced R&D.
