With several standing-room only conference presentations on 3D printing materials, UV LED, UV technology for touch displays, food packaging, disinfection, and UV Inkjet, uv.eb West 2017 was held February 27-March 1 in San Francisco, CA, USA. The event marks the largest such event ever in in Northern California with over 300 attendees and 50 exhibitors.
Formlabs’ Maximilian Zieringer helped keynote the 3D printing session with a presentation on “Material Science: Advancing the Future of Digital Manufacturing and 3D Printing,” while Jake Hundley, HRL Laboratories, discussed “Process-Microstructure Relationships in Additively Manufactured Photopolymer-Derived Ceramics.”
The role that UV (ultraviolet) and EB (electron beam) technologies are playing in food packaging and disinfection were presented in depth, with Connie Williams, Mars Chocolate, NA offering a review of “Mars and the Food Safety Modernization Act.” A session on Next Generation UV Inkjet Technology included talks on new materials and enabling low migration, with a special presentation by Matt Hirsch of Lumii, an MIT start-up company, on “Lumii Light Field 3D Prints: A New Dimension for UV Printers.”
A special session on "UV Materials for Displays: Touch + Beyond" included a review of the soaring automotive touch display market, as well as new materials and processes for fabrication. The event wrapped up with a series of presentations on the application, materials, equipment and measurement advancements that are enabling the fast emerging implementation of UV LEDs.
The event was presented by RadTech, the non profit trade association dedicated to the advancement of UV+EB technologies.
