TracXon scales sustainable printed electronics
Can printed electronics offer a scalable alternative to conventional printed circuit boards? TNO at Holst Centre spin‑off TracXon is showing how a technology developed in the lab can move towards industrial‑scale production. Electronics are everywhere, but the way they are manufactured comes with a significant environmental footprint. Conventional printed circuit boards (PCBs) rely on resource‑intensive […]
