 Okay, hi. My name is Alexander Ligand from the company Nanostripe in Germany. I'm then the sales manager for Yemea. Me means mainly then for Europe, Middle East and Africa, but just yeah, without Central Europe. And so what we are doing is then we are just producing the world's most precise 3D printer. It's just based on two-fold on conversation. And the point is that it's always a little bit difficult just to explain it words. And so much easier if you see some pictures. That's the reason why I just, I hope you can are able to see then the laptop. And you just, yeah, get a bit better idea than of what we are doing. So here, so we are a spinner from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and company Nanostripe. And so now since more than 14 years in the field. And so we have in the meanwhile then, so company Nanostripe. And so we have installed now in the meanwhile, then more than 250 systems worldwide. And so half it, for example, in Europe, a lot of our customers are university based. We have more and more industry customers, but typically they don't want to be named. And so after a while, we decided then that it's necessary then, especially and also for the name industry customers, but also for certain applications that most precisely the printer. And a new model platform. And we have more and more interest from industry on one side. And we have a quite range of different applications. So we decided to create then for each different application area, a certain model. And so that's what you see over here. So to one typical application goes to a micro lens arrays. And then do, for example, print the so-called gold master to replication. We have different projects with different industry customers then to do replication. Not sure if it's possible to see. So as an example, so we provided, sorry, yeah. So this is a typical example that with one of our project partners. So we provided the golden master polymer and they used, for example, hot embossing then just to replicate that. So this is a replicated sample of micro lens arrays, then diffusers and defective optical elements. So this is through a 3D printer. So this is replicated and it was originally produced then of the first. Should we talk about small details? Exactly, absolutely. And so let's go back. I hope you still can see the laptop and you see here in scale bar. So we speak of something like here in the microns and then with square millimeters up to square centimeters, what you have seen before. And in total, it can go down to something like 100 to 200 nanometer lateral feature size. But of course you can also as well then print larger structures. So what you see over here, if you decrease resolution, you can increase the printing speed and expose then larger volumes of the certain area. Again, examples for that. So for example, for this. So object here for us is a quite big one. And so you can then this year is printed and with around them. So in something like 13 to 14 hours print time. What happened before this kind of thing? So before it was then if you have a higher resolution on that, then it's impossible to print that at all. So the advantage of printing something very very small is you can do all kinds of stuff for that. So the point is then of course is then if you can print something with this high precision that you have depends of course on the applications. So for example, then if you work with in photonics, you would like to have something then corresponding then or in the area then in the wavelengths, for example. Or for the microlens erase, then of course you have to then need certain parameters. So for example, you would like to have a smooth surface moving us down in the 10 nanometer and below area, for example. So more example then so as well then give an example then that it's possible then to do for different applications are the models. So this is an example then for applications for the quantum expire model as a 3d bio printing system. So a light based one. So you can print with embedded cells from the beginning and have achieved then cell viability rates then of higher than 90% of so after for example in four hours. And so what you see over here is then in green is are the living cells and red are the so the red points over here are the dead cells. So this is in scan through then in set direction and through different layers of the embedded cells. And in red here so this just mesh over here. So this is the scaffold that was printed to support than the cells. Or of course what you also can do always can do is then to print first a 3d scaffold and then later on place cells on them for tissue engineering for example. Good to see over here or for example and also some of our customers use the system then to provide vascular models because the point isn't always the longer the lifetime than should be then after a while what you have to do is then you have to provide then just cells with nutrients for example. And like this you need somehow or you're interested in very often than to print than vascular models to support the cells then with nutrients. Or other application areas then you can print as well than a master for microphytics and then use that for replication and like this create channels and later on than to print fine elements into these channels like mixers or then just filtering elements or what you see over here is then to provide then here cell cages or cages for cells or then for example pillar elements then to later on enable anchoring points for the cells. Or other application then so you can go into photonic integration circuits and so therefore it's interesting then to print new elements photonic elements micro lenses then for example in this case here on top of optical fibers so what you can do is then so you can print either than elements then for out cupping of optical fibers or on the other side then you can print then elements then on photonic chips to connect in here to send signals data rates then from one side to the others and for example then for special wavelengths we achieve then data rates of better than one decibel then for example or a typical example is then what you would like to hear is then you would like to of course then to print automatic that means then so in the left side we see here the regional design and the right side so you see then here might be difficult to see then here the unlimited core of such a fiber and what we do is then that we print that we choose then in the software the starting and the end point and the software automatically then looks for the core of the fiber to print automatically the lenses that you see here on the left side and this is how the result looks like so parallel printed lenses then parallel to each other to provide them just parallel outputs and you see that you obviously had a good result in printing by seeing them that you achieve parallel beams with it or the other way then for photonic integration is then to print then coupler on top of photonic chips for example then on trading couplers then lenses out coupling lenses in coupling lenses or what you see over here is then so to find automatically then markers that are showed here to print in this case here edge couplers directly here at the edge of this wave guide and this is again then how it looks like so this is the originally designed this is the printed result showing under an SEM picture for the details and so this brings me at the end to the motor think big and yeah so think big and print nano thank you very much so what kind of big thoughts are people having and coming to talk with you and say hey i'd like to do this can you help me do that and there's many different ideas so what we do is then so we sell equipment and so but very often so if people tell me what they would like to do is then that afforded them to customers our equipment to enable them to print their ideas vertically you can print anything that you have an stl file a 3d cut file off and just to give you one example then just so we are part of another company company by co-bioconvergence and their ideas then at the end that you are able to print just organs for humans then for transplantation because a lot of people then worldwide have very long just waiting lists and have to wait very long times until they are able to get the operation then or just for an just step in between to provide then again human honor chip systems then for example to improve track testing on one side to just decrease then the turnaround time for track testing on one side and on the other side and also if you are able then to do just body on a chip or human on chip testing then you can also avoid then the use of animals then for track testing or for example testing then of other media then of course then for for cosmetics sorry yeah what are the materials you can use in the printer so the principle behind is then it's two-fold improvisation so the first step you would work with polymers and then of course if you are interested in other materials you have different possibilities like to use this polymer then as a template and then later on use other techniques like coding techniques then to have access to graphics or for example then also then just center your product then to get class for example then as a step or for example then use electroplating to have access to metal like just gold, copper or nickel and in medicine in nano medicine what do people want to do with a printer that goes that small so for example what you would like to do is then either to print to use it for your human and chip model to print fine elements in it like mixes or filters or for example then you also can do is then there are some other work done where people just print a movable part like small micro pots that deliver tracks inside human body to a place where they should go to for better track just efficiency would you actually print things that go into the human body yes that's one game of different researchers than worldwide and your machines are ready for that for the printing yes so for the printing of testing yes and it was also used then for animal models but also there was some first work done as well then at least for human testing and do you see anything about the price of the printer of the machine you have the quantum x-align x-vio x shape those products so these are products that can be bought and so just to give you a price range so and in total so we speak of prices then just going up depending on the more difficult sorry the more different just positions you can add but of course it can go up to something like 800k euro and the core model starts at around 450 to 500k euro and we have as well done and just our work costs for academics the photonic profession gt2 system and this just has a price range between 350k euro up to 450k euro and i guess you have some really cool and interesting customers they're doing very secret projects absolutely of very advanced r&d and you involved with them i guess so of course so a lot of our customers is then our university research centers and so if you look just for the world university's ranking then you see out of the top 10 nine of them are our customers already and then for two big applications then for example industry it would be then micro lenses if just if you have a look then for your mobile then you see that as a lot of research done always to improve for example the cameras inside the mobiles and can you say a little bit more about bico so the company bico is then just stands for bico conversions it was founded then in around 2016 then just as a company selling and they went into the just u.s. stock market to just gain money or just to get money then to buy different smaller companies like for example the just a company nanostripe and the big vision then is just to avoid on one side then animal testing and on the next step is then for the future is then to do organ printing for humans and enable new advanced technology absolutely so and of course then for for different applications like so and we mentioned life science we mentioned medicines then on one side and then of course then always so the imagination is then the limit so everything what you can have in mind and as an idea to print what you can do for these cats you can just try to print that and so the other applications then are typically then photonics and or I mentioned my robotics then also people just in general people do for example as well men's and you world leader and exactly this stuff you said this is most precise so on one side we are then a world leader in terms of just machines then on one side and of course then technology leader as well then in terms of then the most precise 3d printing then possible technology then based in this case based on two photo stabilization the feature size is going to 100 nanometer and fairly below that anything we forgot to talk about not from my side and of course then if you have questions then I think it makes more sense than to place them directly here at the booth and just speak with me directly to go for details
