July 31: 3D Printing & Coating of SWaP Optimized mm-Wave Components

Also on the 31st at 11 am EST (5 pm CEST), micro AM and AM coating specialist Horizon Microtechnologies will hold a webinar about the J.A.M.E.S platform, about how next-gen waveguide-based radio frequency (RF) components can be created with micro 3D printing and its own proprietary copper coating, HMT-Metal. These RF components, which are basically hollow tubes with conductive interior surfaces, guide electromagnetic waves from one point to another with minimal loss of energy and signal degradation. Using traditional manufacturing to fabricate them is challenging for a number of reasons, including machining complex internal features into solid metal tubes and the need for extremely tight tolerances. During the webinar, “Manufacturing of SWaP Optimized mm-Wave Components by AM and Advanced Metallization Techniques,” attendees will learn the advantages of using micro 3D printed plastic parts, coated with Horizon’s copper HMT, in waveguide-based RF components.

“We will describe various case studies which show the successful use of coated micro-AM parts in mm-wave applications,” explained Horizon Microtechnologies CEO Andreas Frölich in a press release. “For example, we undertook rigorous functional testing to prove the effectiveness of our HMT-Metal coating process for making high frequency D-Band horn antenna via 3D printing and waveguide transitions. Horizon’s devices performed as well as conventionally built ones, removing many of the reservations that 3D printed devices are often faced with. This proves that some very interesting opportunities exist as companies requiring mm-wave components can now exploit the process advantages of micro-AM by partnering with Horizon as their development and manufacturing partner. For example, the antenna weighed only a sixth of its conventional counterpart and took up 15% less space.”
