PROFACTOR is especially dedicated to the combination of additive manufacturing and functionalization of surfaces, which define the quality and functionality for components.

Additive Manufacturing processes are – as well as assistance systems – a key to a competitive production in small lots and customized products. Additive Manufacturing enables ( almost) limitless design freedom and the ability to combine different materials.

The focus of research is the consistent view of process chains from materials, form the processes up to the adaptation of the necessary equipment.

PROFACTOR pays attention to the following technologies :

Nanoimprint Lithography (NIL)

The aim of Nanoimprint Lithography (NIL) is the cost-efficient replication of nanostructures on large area surfaces. In the context of additive manufacturing additive Nanoimprinting lends itself to the surface treatment of additively manufactured items and to the modification of these surf ...

Multimaterial Inkjet Printing

Inkjet printing allows the contactless deposition of coatings on various substrates. Drops with an exact defined amount of material are placed on predefined positions. Thus, the technique is highly economical in material use with low waste production. By using digital process chains the fa ...
