PV Nano Cell Wins IDTechEx Award for Best Development in Materials for 3D Printing
Company recognized for its portfolio of innovative nanometric conductive inks, enabling the mass production of printed electronics
MIGDAL HA'EMEK, Israel, Nov. 19, 2015 -- PV Nano Cell, an innovative nanometric conductive digital inks producer, today announced that it won the IDTechEx award for Best Development in Materials for 3D Printing. The award was presented at IDTechEx Printed Electronics USA 2015, the world's biggest event focused on the commercialization of printed, organic and flexible electronics. PV Nano Cell was recognized for its Sicrys portfolio of single-crystal, nanometric, metal-based conductive inks that have been uniquely developed to enable the mass production of digitally printed electronics, which is critical to the growth of the industry.
"We are honored to receive this award from such an influential, high-profile organization, being recognized for the hard work that our team pours into developing our unique inks," said Fernando de la Vega, Ph.D., founder and CEO of PV Nano Cell. "In order for the printed electronics industry to grow as anticipated, cost-efficient inks that enable mass production digital inkjet printing are necessary. We work with manufacturers of printed electronics including printed circuit boards, antennas and others to enable significant technological advancements."
With Sicrys inks, printed electronics and 3D printed electronics can be made with less material and increased efficiency, reducing costs and increasing design flexibility. For example, the multiple antennas found in cellphones today can be printed directly onto the phone case using Sicrys conductive inks, reducing the size, weight and parts necessary to produce cellphones. SicrysTM inks allow for printing on flexible substrates, such as plastic, fabric or even paper.
IDTechEx is an organization that provides independent market research, business intelligence and events on emerging technologies. PV Nano Cell's award was presented on November 18 at the IDTechEx award ceremony at the conference in Santa Clara, California.

The ERT150 - Dorner's Next Evolution of Edge Roller Technology Conveyors
The next evolution in Dorner's Edge Roller Technology conveyor platform, the ERT®150, is ideal for small and light-load assembly automation, as well as medical and medical-device assembly application. The ERT platform is the only pallet conveyor of its kind available with an ISO Standard Class 4 rating for cleanroom applications. Earning the ISO Standard 14644-1 Class 4 rating means Dorner's ERT150 will conform and not contribute to the contamination of cleanrooms to those standards. As implied by its name, the ERT150 (Edge Roller Technology) uses rollers to move pallets through the conveyor smoothly with no friction (a byproduct often seen in belt-driven platforms). The conveyor's open design eliminates concerns of small parts or screws dropping into rollers and causing conveyor damage or jamming. The ERT150 is suited to operate in cleanroom environments requiring a pallet handling conveyor. It is capable of zoning for no or low-back pressure accumulation and is ideal for automation assembly applications within industries including medical devices, electronics, consumer goods among others.
