Optomec announced that they have been awarded a NASA SBIR contract for the development of an Adaptive Laser Sintering System (ALSS). In partnership with Harding University in Arkansas, Optomec will work to enhance their laser sintering technology to develop a fully automated curing system for 3D printed electronics. The team is looking to expand the use of 3D printed electronics for a larger range of production applications by enabling electronic circuits to be printed on a wider variety of temperature sensitive substrates. According to Optomec, the project will lead to the use of 3D printed electronics in space exploration as well as in commercial applications.
