Dave Ramahi, Optomec’s president and CEO, gave a presentation titled “Additive Manufacturing for Direct Integration of 3D Sensors for IoT Applications” in the Structural and Physical Health Monitoring track at the Interpack Conference in San Francisco, CA on Aug. 30.
Optomec additive manufacturing solutions are used in production today to print conformal strain gauges directly onto turbine engine components that collect mechanical deformation data for cloud based analysis, establishing the convergence of 3D printing and IoT applications.
InterPACK 2017 is a forum for exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge in research, development, manufacturing, and applications of electronic packaging, MEMS and NEMS.
Ramahi discussed how Optomec’s Aerosol Jet system can directly print sensors and antennas onto existing 3D structures, or be used to more tightly package traditional discrete sensors and antenna in a 3D setting. This enables production of Smart Products that are an essential building block for the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial Internet applications.
Optomec’s Direct Write 3D printing technology improves upon legacy discrete sensor & antenna production methods, which are generally 2D, and fail to optimize for cost, size, weight and performance when adapted to 3D products. Ramahi also shared how Optomec is developing sets of parametric sensor and antenna reference libraries that are optimized for 3D printing to help speed the adoption of Smart Product solutions.
