Controlled Droplet Dispensing
In developing technologies
for high-quality, high-speed inkjet printing,
PARC has created a world-class competency
in the controlled dispensing of small droplets.
Controlled droplet dispensing technologies
include acoustic and piezo ejection systems.
Controlled droplet dispensing
technologies draw on PARC expertise in microfluidics,
piezo materials, ultrasonics, and electronics
integration. PARC researchers also have expertise
in systems integration for solutions that
utilize controlled droplet dispensing.
Single
piezo ejectors for multiple materials
deposition
Piezo ejection
drop sizes are larger than those of acoustic
dispensers and their directionality is extremely
precise. PARC has developed a disposable
single piezo ejector, with a self-contained
reservoir, actuator and nozzle. An array
of these ejectors can be assembled to eject
many different fluids simultaneously.
