Nanoscribe微图技术专家已宣布推出其新的量子X形3D打印机.
Based on the company’s 2019-released量子x, the new Quantum X shape operates on the same Two-Photon Polymerization (2PP) technology and offers improved 3D microfabrication capabilities. Marketed as an ‘ultra-precise 3D printer’, the system is designed for both rapid prototyping and wafer-scale series production.
Quantum X Shape主要针对研究实验室和工业设备制造商，在生命科学，微流体，材料工程，微力学，微观电视和微机械系统（MEMS）中具有应用。Nanoscribe指出，其最新系统的精确度和生产率提高，使其特别适合在尺寸六英寸的晶片上打印组件。
“With the Quantum X shape, Nanoscribe is setting new standards in wafer-scale high-precision microfabrication for scientific and industrial purposes,” said Dr. Michael Thiel, CSO and co-founder of Nanoscribe. “While the Quantum X is already driving the ultra-fast fabrication of flat micro-optics, we expect the Quantum X shape to make high-precision 3D printing based on Two-Photon Polymerization an unrivaled efficient and reliable tool for rapid prototyping and batch production in research labs and industry.”
与纳米cribe
Founded in 2007 as a spin-off of theKarlsruhe技术学院(KIT), Nanoscribe develops and manufactures 2PP-based 3D printers, a form micro-stereolithography for small part production. In June 2021, the firm was由生物打印公司BICO Group收购(formerly CELLINK) in a deal worth €50 million in cash, shares, and earn-outs.
大学有3,000多名用户, research institutions, and industrial firms around the world, Nanoscribe has made a name for itself in the microprinting space. Alongside the new Quantum X shape, the company also offers the光子专业GT2和原始量子X。
为了启用微流体和微观访问的应用，Nanoscribe还提供了自己的专家树脂系列。这些包括光聚合物零件的IP光蛋白系列and theGP-Silica材料用于二氧化硅玻璃微观结构。
BICO的首席执行官兼联合创始人Erik Gatenholm说：“ Quantum X Shape的发布展示了许多应用领域的高精度3D打印的创新潜力，尤其是对于苛刻的生命科学应用程序。”“ Nanoscribe正在制定3D微加工的新标准，以发现明天的技术，我不能让他们成为BICO团队的一员。”
The Quantum X shape
建设面积50 x 50毫米,量子xshape is capable of everything from meso- to nano-scale 3D printing, although it’s been optimized to fabricate 2.5D and 3D shapes with submicrometer precisions. It allows for feature size control down to 100nm and surface roughness control down to 5nm.
该机器具有新的Galvo和智能电子控制系统，以及脉冲飞秒激光器。使用高级激光焦点轨迹控制，量子X形状能够加速和减速Galvo镜，以最佳扫描速度，同时以1 MHz的速度动态调节激光的功率。该公司选择实施基于花岗岩的构建平台。
On the software side, Nanoscribe has also developed nanoConnectX, a remote access tool for use with the Quantum X shape. nanoConnectX transfers all of the printer’s functions and touchscreen display options to the user’s computer, enabling remote print management and real-time monitoring from anywhere with an internet connection.
