That’s actually really cool!

[@rcpattaya230]

Looks real easy. Only need a chemical lab, special carrier material, curing ??, no holes, splendid. And of course that printer comes at a real affordable price, right???

Hi Anthony. The CJ in the video is a prototype, and Electroninks is mostly an advanced materials company, so we thought it would be nice to show that the ink is made in-house and put in cartridges. Depending on the ink, the shelf life can be really long (a year or more in the case of silver) so the cartridges can be shipped and don't have to be used all at once. You're right there's a coating that makes the liquid metal become solid in about a second. As for "no holes" that's something we're working on. At the time this video was made there wasn't an automated way to make holes. As for "affordable", that's relative. We are hopeful a printer like this with a substantial kit of sample substrates and cartridges will retail for $1000. Beta printers cost substantially more than $1000 to produce, so getting them into the hands of beta testers is being done on a case-by-case basis.

I love it

Excellent.....

[@teodulosoriano513]

Ive been wondering how to produce prototype boards easily may be a conductive ink and electroplating but currently i dont have a spare printer to load with cunductive ink give it a try

[@DanBurgaud]

I wish I had this 30 years ago...

[@deepak_00]

hi @Rob Roberts did you used readymade printer(if yes how can get it) or custom designed cardboard printer. I am too working on printer like this but not getting enough resources to build.

How much it cost

[@drozcompany4132]

Whats the trace/space resolution of that or what's it expected to be?

[@tomipiriyev]

are we going to see this circuit printer in the market anytime soon?

Hello Sir. Sir, I have a schematic of the 2 way filters can I send it to you so that you can do the gerber and PCBA and what are the conditions? Cordially. Yvon.

[@billfield8300]

Typically, conductive inks have a high resistance... any measurements you would care to share?

[@DenizOzmalkoc]

I think they used etching solution ?

[@featherbrain7147]

Apparently it is silver, so the ink itself is going to be expensive. n x copper, where n=?

[@DECIMA1]

Very interesting, is there a rough idea about how much this will cost that you can share?

[@robroberts2064]

Target MSRP is $1K including a kit of materials to print on (and including ink).

@@robroberts2064 Hi, have you ever thought about asking a Chinese factory to make machines? I think the price will be much lower.
