Efficient Ink Evaluation for Printed Electronics Development

Laboratory scale testing provides engineers with a practical, low-capital solution for evaluating ink performance in-house.

This approach supports detailed analysis of critical ink properties that influence printability, including viscosity, drying behavior, and substrate compatibility. Engineers can also measure electrical conductivity and assess functional performance under controlled conditions.

Additionally, fine feature resolution—such as trace line widths and ink film thickness—can be tested and optimized. These tests require only minimal quantities of inks and substrates, enabling iterative development without excessive material consumption.

Small-scale testing ultimately accelerates R&D cycles and supports informed process development for scalable manufacturing.
