Copprint powered products.
Great picture from a Chinese customer. Four products made with Copprint’s conductive copper paste on glass and aluminum.
Instead of a polluting etching process, a sustainable lower-cost printing process is implemented.

Thank you Dominik Rudolph, Rüdiger Farneda, Tudor Timofte, Andreas Halm, Joris Libal , Andy, Ning Chen , Dr. Florian Buchholz for your pioneering work with printed copper traces. And to Yitzchak (Isaac) Rosen, who leads this activity on the Copprint side. Their work was presented at the Metallization & Interconnection workshop for crystalline silicon solar cells: https://lnkd.in/dHDigsNU

Many people do not know that conductive silver pastes account for 10-30% of the cost of Solar modules production.
The solar cell industry already consumes ~12% of global silver production. PV production is expected to increase fivefold in the following years, increasing worldwide Silver mining/production demand by 50%. However, this would drive up silver prices to insane levels, making solar cells extremely expensive. The simplest way to overcome this issue and cut production costs dramatically is to switch to conductive copper printing.

Join our copper printing revolution.

Additive Manufacturing of Electronics requires good soldering and is enabled with Copprint’s conductive copper inks, as demonstrated by the formation of an IMC layer (Inter Metallic Compound). This layer is formed during reflow between the solder alloy and printed conductive copper paste and is the index of good soldering (see explanation here ).

Full process details:

1. Print copper traces on FR4 substrate with Copprint copper pastes.
2. Soldering process – can be done even one week after sintering.
   1. Print off-the-shelf solder paste. (The most recommended paste is Henkel Loctite LF-318).
   2. Component placement.
   3. Standard reflow process.

Die shear tests after the process indicated >3Kgf for 1206 SMD resistor soldered on Copprint’s LF360 with SAC305 Loctite LF-318.

Copprint is proud to be a Copper Sponsor for CPES2021.

We are excited to announce two new top-performing nano-copper paste:

LF-371 for thick printing on multiple substrates such as FR4, Glass, Alumina, Aluminum, Ceramics.

LF-390 for printing on Polyimide (PI).

Best conductivity among conductive pastes and best price/performance.

#HTVD is one of Europe’s leading meeting places for tech companies, international investors, and corporates and is launching on October 13 in Dresden, Germany. https://lnkd.in/d8sSyXi

Take an FR4 board, drill holes (2 minutes), print Copprint’s LF370 paste on both sides (2 minutes), sinter (3 seconds) and you are done. Tens of circuits in one hour.
The cheapest and fastest way to fabricate short and medium series of simple circuit boards.

– Highest conductivity among all conductive pastes.
– Sheet resistance ~2.2mΩ/□/mil
– Cheaper than etching.
– 5-10x cheaper than silver inks
– Environmental friendly process.
– Excellent adhesion and durability
– Solderable
