Electroninks plans to develop a technology demonstrator for an all-in-one printed circuit board (PCB) prototyping platform, CircuitJet. This platform, designed for use during Army operations in garrison or while deployed, will enable the rapid fabrication or repair of damaged or missing printed PCBs in a ruggedized and man-portable format with low power consumption. The tool, using copper-clad laminates (CCL) as a substrate, will swiftly create one-to-one replacement boards that match the fit, form, and function of traditionally manufactured PCBs. The CircuitJet's implementation is expected to significantly enhance the operational efficiency of Army warfighting systems and facilities.
