Description

Hensoldt is a major European player in the field of radar systems and sensor equipment. Within this field, the application of innovative technologies is a main goal for future products. Complementary to the civil areas of electronics the miniaturisation and increasing modularity forces the application of new technologies. One of the most promising technologies is the additive manufacturing process for electronic devices, like “printed circuit boards” [PCB]. Hensoldt was one of the first companies in Europe that had the chance to test this new manufacturing technology. First object of the presentation is to show the first impressions about the possibilities, the obstacles and the way for a successful implementation of NanoDimension technology. Second is to get an overview about the mechanical part of electronic equipment and the impacts of AM to solve future requirements.

Why your contribution is relevant for the event?

Hensoldt want to show its position in the field of innovative technologies for electronic equipment.
