The Quantum shape x printer was recently launched by Nanoscribe.
Quantum X shape is a high precision printer for Precise prototyping and wafer-scale batch production.
Quantum shape X focuses on efficiency and speed, printing upon wafers up to 6 inches in size.
The Quantum shape X efficiency makes it valuable to research labs and large scale manufacturing such as life sciences,
Micro fluids, Micromechanics,
material engineering and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS).
Speed and accuracy are highly valued in Additive Manufacturing and the quantum X shape offers agile additive manufacturing,
Where accuracy and speed are equally balanced to give a high level of quality and productivity.
Quantum X the first Two-Photon Grayscale Lithography (2GL ®) system launched in 2019 specialised in surface patterning,
The new Quantum shape offers better 3D microfabrication efficiency.
Quantum x offers a high-level microfabrication process from nano to large-sized structures,
and is suited for wafer-level
batch processing.
With the Quantum X shape, Nanoscribe is setting new standards in wafer-scale high-precision microfabrication for scientific and industrial purposes,” says Dr Michael Thiel, CSO and Co-Founder of Nanoscribe.
“While the Quantum X is already driving the ultra-fast fabrication of flat micro-optics through Two-Photon Grayscale Lithography, we expect the Quantum X shape to make high-precision 3D printing based on Two-Photon Polymerization an unrivalled efficient and reliable tool for rapid prototyping and batch production in research labs and industry.”
The Quantum shape X offers 3 very important assets
- A high precision 3D Microfabrication Technology
- Enhancing Precision and speed to increase output
- Ui friendly workflow
High precision 3D Microfabrication Technology
Two-Photon polymerization:
Using a 3D printing approach that offers the highest precision and design freedom
- The DIW system is best for the microfabrication of 2.5D and 3D objects with submicrometer precision on areas up to 25 cm².
- Microfabrication objects with feature size control down to 100 nanometres in all spatial directions for nano and micro printing
- mesoscale printing up to 50 millimetres object size,
The quantum X shape makes short work of this.
Enhancing Precision and speed to increase output an automatic interface finder that notices substrate surfaces with a precision of nanometers.
it can scan at the highest scan speed, combined with self-calibration routines,
The results are accurate prints in the shortest amount of time
Ui friendly workflow
The printer features an upright system with an automatic photo-resin dispensing function,
it is an optimal device for industrial batch processes with standard wafers up to 6 inches.
A remote access software nanoConnectX gives the system users all options from with the touch of a button on a touchscreen connected to the system users’ computers.
it offers reduced prep time in a lab to a minimum and increases teamwork while sharing a system.
Furthermore,
Erik Gatenholm, CEO and Co-Founder of BICO added
“The launch of the Quantum X shape demonstrates the innovative potential of high-precision 3D printing for many application areas, especially for demanding life science applications,”
