SV2 - Technical Specifications
Printing
Inkjet Conductive & Insulating Inks
SV2 inkjet prints low-resistivity conductive inks and dielectric insulating inks to make Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) in minutes on a variety of stiff and flexible substrates.
SV2 sequentially prints conductive traces and insulating layers, building vias in the dielectric layer to interconnect layers.
