The Latest from Copprint

NOVA from Voltera is a powerful tool supporting the Copprint inks.
See how easy it is to work with low cost, sustainable conductive copper ink for designing and fabricating compostable antennas.

These certifications are a testament to our commitment to delivering high-quality products and services while also prioritizing environmental sustainability.
Our sincere gratitude to Shoham Zemach, our amazing Quality and Safety Manager, who led this activity and made it happen! Her hard work and dedication were essential in achieving this milestone.
These certifications are not just a badge of honor for us, but they also show that we care about our customers, partners, and the planet. We hope that other organizations will be inspired to prioritize quality and sustainability and leverage our copper inks for sustainable manufacturing of circuit boards, antennas, PV cells, etc.

Copprint is proud to be selected to the prestigious 2023 Global Cleantech 100 list published by Cleantech Group!
The #GTC100 is an annual list (since 2009) of the most innovative and promising companies that will take humanity from commitments to actions in our efforts to reach net-zero.
Out of 15,753 nominees, from 93+ countries, 330 companies were shortlisted. These were reviewed by the 81 members of Global Cleantech 100 Expert Panel (https://lnkd.in/ekg7ZAwe), made up of leading investors, corporate and industrial executives who are active in tech and innovation scouting. See the list at https://bit.ly/3W8CsKn

Copprint’s solution for sustainable manufacturing of circuit boards, “green circuits”, compostable antennas, and lower cost Photovoltaic is globally recognized. Copprint was recently awarded the Climate Solutions Prize in Israel – a $1M investment from Capital Nature and the Gold Edison award for Sustainability and Environmental Impact.

Copprint is honored and proud to receive the Israeli Climate Solutions Prize – a $1M investment from Capital Nature
During the first climate solutions festival, Copprint was selected out of >300 applicants.

Thank you Capital Nature, Ofir Gomeh, Orelle Khalili
Michal Bahat Tali B. Gil Shaki Orit Marom Albeck for your trust and for joining our existing investors, Henkel, HP and TATSUTA ELECTRIC WIRE & CABLE CO., LTD.

Thank you, Start-Up Nation Central, JNF Canada, Jeff Hart, for organizing this important event.

It is great to be recognized for the impact Copprint has on sustainable electronics production: enabling the production of compostable antennas and circuits, enabling on-shore additive manufacturing of PCBs, as well as cost-cutting of photovoltaic modules.

Copprint powered products.
Great picture from a Chinese customer. Four products made with Copprint’s conductive copper paste on glass and aluminum.
Instead of a polluting etching process, a sustainable lower-cost printing process is implemented.

Thank you Dominik Rudolph, Rüdiger Farneda, Tudor Timofte, Andreas Halm, Joris Libal , Andy, Ning Chen , Dr. Florian Buchholz for your pioneering work with printed copper traces. And to Yitzchak (Isaac) Rosen, who leads this activity on the Copprint side. Their work was presented at the Metallization & Interconnection workshop for crystalline silicon solar cells: https://lnkd.in/dHDigsNU

Many people do not know that conductive silver pastes account for 10-30% of the cost of Solar modules production.
The solar cell industry already consumes ~12% of global silver production. PV production is expected to increase fivefold in the following years, increasing worldwide Silver mining/production demand by 50%. However, this would drive up silver prices to insane levels, making solar cells extremely expensive. The simplest way to overcome this issue and cut production costs dramatically is to switch to conductive copper printing.

Join our copper printing revolution.

Additive Manufacturing of Electronics requires good soldering and is enabled with Copprint’s conductive copper inks, as demonstrated by the formation of an IMC layer (Inter Metallic Compound). This layer is formed during reflow between the solder alloy and printed conductive copper paste and is the index of good soldering (see explanation here ).

Full process details:

1. Print copper traces on FR4 substrate with Copprint copper pastes.
2. Soldering process – can be done even one week after sintering.
   1. Print off-the-shelf solder paste. (The most recommended paste is Henkel Loctite LF-318).
   2. Component placement.
   3. Standard reflow process.

Die shear tests after the process indicated >3Kgf for 1206 SMD resistor soldered on Copprint’s LF360 with SAC305 Loctite LF-318.
