Nano Dimension Disrupts Printed Electronics with World's First 3D Printer Dedicated to Ultra-Rapid Prototyping of PCBs

DragonFly 2020 3D Printer being Demonstrated at Printed Electronics USA 2015 Saves Time and Money by Creating Functional PCB Prototypes In-House

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--PRINTED ELECTRONICS USA -- Nano Dimension Ltd. (TASE: NNDM, OTCQX: NNDMY) today revealed the worlds first desktop-sized 3D printer designed specifically for the production of professional multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs). The DragonFly 2020 3D Printer, being demonstrated in the US for the first time at the Printed Electronics USA 2015 conference (Booth F09), will allow users to build functional, multilayer circuit board prototypes in-house -in a matter of hours.


The capability of rapidly producing functional multilayer PCB prototypes using 3D printing is new to the printed electronics design and manufacturing industry. The current standard subtractive manufacturing of PCBs is a multi-stage, labor- and material-intensive process, and is so costly and time consuming that electronics designers requiring prototypes resort to outsourcing. Nano Dimensions 3D printer can print a complete multilayer PCB, including all interconnections between layers, using its revolutionary inkjet printer and highly conductive nano-inks. Sophisticated proprietary software accepts industry standard Gerber design files and manages the precise print process. In addition, the DragonFly 2020 3D Printer gives users the option of testing on-the-fly, testing a range of designs and exploring new circuit geometries.

The DragonFly 2020 3D Printer is a three-axis inkjet printer; its benefits and attributes include:

* On-site ultra-rapid prototyping of professional multilayer prototype PCBs including interconnections and through-holes.
* Reduced PCB design and test cycles, from months or weeks to days.
* Minimize costs and inexpensively evaluate design alternatives and creative ideas.
* Security of IP, sensitive design information stays in-house.
* A greener alternative to standard PCB production since it is a cleaner process with no waste.
* Compact, office-friendly 3D printer.

"For designers and engineers looking for ultra-rapid prototyping of PCBs, our 3D printer is a significant leap forward. The DragonFly 3D Printer eliminates the frustration they face when they reach the prototyping and testing stage," said Simon Fried, Chief Marketing Officer at Nano Dimension. "Moving their work from design to a prototype at an off-site printing facility might take weeks for the PCB to be ordered, produced and shipped. If further iterations are needed, its back to the prototyping house for another cycle. In todays competitive electronics markets, unforeseeable and costly delays during PCB development can significantly slow time-to-market. Thats the development risk and bottleneck that were eliminating with the DragonFly 2020."

At Printed Electronics USA, Nano Dimension is also exhibiting its AgCite line of conductive silver nanoparticle inks for inkjet deposition and 3D printed PCB prototype samples. In addition, Nano Dimensions CMO Simon Fried will give a presentation on "What happens when 3D printing and conductive inks converge?"

The DragonFly 2020 3D Printer is targeted for commercial availability during the second half of 2016. The AgCite conductive inks are available today.
