Zurich University Of Applied Sciences Partners With Admatec

Zurich University Partnership
An Admaflex 130 at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences

The Swiss IMPE Institute of Materials and Process Engineering at the ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences has been actively involved in the dynamic development of new technologies and applications for ceramic materials using additive manufacturing for several years.

They use various technologies like binder jetting, thermoplastic or paste extrusion and digital light processing. An Admaflex 130 printer has been installed recently as the lab’s latest flagship in this area.

Prof. dr. Dirk Penner, head of the Ceramic Materials Laboratory, is convinced that this investment will pave the way for further material innovations and exciting technological developments.


Future applications are primarily in functional components in the fields of medical technology, chemical technology and process engineering, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering.


More information can be found on the website of the Zurich University of Applied Sciences.

Additive Manufacturing vs. Traditional Manufacturing for Low-Volume Electronics Production

When you think of low-volume production for electronic components and devices, you likely think of producing a single panel of prototype PCBs or a single wafer of ICs. Compared to ICs, PCBs require much greater customization, are typically produced in lower volume and may be created in several variants throughout a product’s lifecycle. Each design…
