Teknek, a UK based company specialised in contact cleaning systems , recently announced that it has introduced the world’s first contact cleaning technology for thin films that can be used in high vacuum. The Nanocleen vacuum system is said to be ideal for use in roll-to-roll production of printed electronics, and offer excellent removal of nano-scale particles that could otherwise affect product yields. It was developed as part of Clean4Yield, an EU-funded project coordinated by Holst Centre.

Ceradrop, a manufacturer of inkjet printers tailored for the production of printed electronics based in France, just announced its integration into the MGI Group. Through this move the company hopes to benefit from MGI’s ecosystem to consolidate its technology, enjoy a worldwide presence and industrialise its products in the printed electronics market.
