DiMatix ink jets adhesives

April 27, 2006 – Dimatix, a provider of commercial and industrial ink jet products, announced that researchers have used its cartridge-based Dimatix Materials Printer to repeatedly ink jet spatially controlled patterns of micron-sized drops of adhesives.

The work, done in conjunction with several universities, was done on a Dimatix DMP-2800. Mmicroscopic deposition of adhesives could enable better bonding for a range of electronic and biomedical applications.

“By printing such small and spatially aligned drops, the bond lines between materials are reduced, ultimately resulting in better adhesion,” said Jan Sumerel, manager of biomedical sciences at Dimatix, in a prepared statement.
