Molex Incorporated, a global manufacturer of complete interconnect solutions with headquarters in Lisle (IL) USA, has announced the acquisition of certain assets of Soligie, Inc. The Minnesota-based company specialises in printed and flexible electronic solutions for applications in medical, military, industrial, lighting and consumer goods. Products range from sensor systems, medical wearables, LED lighting, specialised RFID labels, and devices that enable the Internet of Things (IoT).
After a decade of intensive studies and development efforts, printed electronics can now be cost efficiently produced in masses. PrintoCent, a Finnish pilot factory dedicated to the scaling up from prototypes to mass manufacturing in the printed electronics industry, has therefore recently released a pioneering handbook that gives tools for a rapid technology take-off with numerous implementation examples and tangible advice on how to get the best out of the components.
