Company Profile

microdrop company profile

microdrop Technologies is the leading provider of equipment, software and services for advanced microdispensing and inkjet printing applications.

Our team of scientists, engineers and technicians has more than 15 years experience in inkjet-technology and micro-fluidics. We focus on high quality products and services for industrial applications as well as for R&D purposes. Our products range from single dispenser systems up to sophisticated Autodrop Platforms (including glove box and production systems).

We provide our customers with a number of services like training, dispensing tests, prototyping and customized solutions. Microdrop Technologies is significantly involved in several R&D projects, which are concerned with material deposition and inkjet printing, in cooperation with industrial partners or by public funding (EU, BMBF, DPI, etc.).

Our main applications fields are:

main application

Our products are found in several production processes, e. g. material deposition of oils (lubrication of hard drive motors, minimal lubrication for drilling), adhesives (bonding of micro-parts and optics) and mercury (lamp production).

Material Sciences

An important materials science topic is the development of new coatings, dispersions, inks and functional polymers.

In such applications, our Autodrop Platform is used as a versatile tool for liquid handling, material deposition and investigations of drop forming and substrate wetting.

In addition, the pipette systems serve as a unique tool for the preparation of libraries. The application of high solids content dispersions and concentrated solutions allows the printing of 3-D structures (Rapid Prototyping).

Plastic Electronics

Plastic Electronics is a growing field where functional polymers and conductive inks are used in electronic devices such as OLED’s, displays, solar cells, sensors, RFID-Tags, conductive lines and others.

microdrop’s technology is used for development, sample printing and prototyping of such devices.

Life science / biochemistry

Microdrop’s printing systems are based on glass capillaries. This allows the handling of DNA, proteins and even cells.

In cooperation with several distributors, Microdrop Technologies provides its products and services worldwide. Our specialists are in close contact with our customers. This guarantees the optimal solution for your specific application.
