Roll-to-roll printed and flexible electronics for wearable, healthcare and IoT

Printed electronics enable roll to roll manufacturing of flexible components and devices in high throughput process. However, printing of fully integrated systems is not typically today possible without additional hybrid assembly of conventional electronics components. In latest developments hybrid assembly can be fully roll to roll process utilizing tiny bare die components, enabling paper thin and flexible electronics production in high volumes. This form is ideal for integration of electronics to smart surfaces onto plastics, construction materials, wearable devices or skin contact patches. Even though the throughput of hybrid production is not as high as the printing, the process can be highly automatized
