LOPEC press conference with Kai Hohmann, principal technical expert automotive displays at Continental; Dr Stephan Kirchmeyer, chairman of the board of OE-A; Wolfgang Mildner, general chair LOPEC; and Falk Senger, CEO of Messe München
At the LOPEC trade show, the leading European event for organic and printed electronics, which takes place in Munich, Germany, the Organic Electronics Association (OE-A) has published its latest business climate survey as well as the sixth edition of its Roadmap. The OE-A Roadmap is updated biannually and represents the knowledge and opinions of the world’s leading printed and flexible electronics experts. It addresses technologies as well as applications in the areas of OLED lighting, organic photovoltaics (OPV), OLED and flexible displays, electronics and components, and integrated smart systems.
The OE-A, the Organic Electronics Association, has recently unveiled its programme for the upcoming LOPEC trade fair (4-5 March in Munich). In its fifth year, the OE-A Demonstrator Competition will show what organic and printed electronics can make possible. Prizes will be awarded in five categories.
Typically accuracies of +/- 0.1mm are achieved with web guiders, in special cases the control accuracy is twices as high at +/- 0.05mm. However, absolute position tolerances of maximum 10µm are allowed during the production of printed circuits – a real challenge for the engineers. Erhardt + Leimer, a provider of web guiding and tension measurement equipment based in Stadtbergen, Germany, will present a sophisticated solution for this issue at the upcoming LOPEC trade fair in Munich, Germany.
