The main aim of this project is to develop new materials and printing and integration processes in order to create true printed electronics that make it possible to produce personalised, functional products in a single manufacturing process. Research is being carried out into 3D printing processes such as fused deposition modelling (FDM) and integration technologies such as in mould electronics (IME), which makes it possible to combine 2D flexible electronics printing with thermoforming and injection moulding to create 3D products with embedded electronics in plastic parts and 3D components.
