 So we're here with Afe Lim, so who are you? Yeah, thank you very much, good morning. My name is Mr. Michel Popovic, I'm the chairman of Afe Lim. Afe Lim is a French association for printing electronic, and now we have more than 56 members. So this is a printing electronic association in France? Yes. And you have all these companies? Yes, all these companies built through this association. 56 companies. So most of them are industrial companies, involved in different sectors. So what's the point in having an association? What do they do together? The goal together is to develop the networking, to work in international, to develop the new applications, to meet the end users, and to find the killer applications, which will be developed and produced in mass production very soon. Printing electronics is fantastic, it's awesome, right? Yes. How soon is it going to be everywhere? Yes, yes. The goal today, we developed the application in the medical fields, in the security fields, and also we are working in automotive and robotics. So many of those members are around here? Yes, yes, most of them are there, yes. Can we talk with some of them? Yes, we start with the first one. Maybe with this one? This one? Yes. So we go around here. Hey, Jeanne Zink, hey, how are you? Hello, I'm Dragois Stalant from Jeanne Zink. We are a French manufacturer of a connective and semi-connective ink. Over here? Yes. So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So what kind of… So here it's a screen-painting, a simple screen. This one? Here you can see a OLED device, OLED screen-painting OLED device. So it's made by an off-center. Great. So bringing all this to market, is it on the market? Excuse me? Is it possible to buy all this stuff right now? Yes, sure. We can provide small quantity for laboratory or big quantity for mass production industry. Cool. And you have more partners? Yes. We have other partners around, so we can continue with the piezo-tech. Arkema was one of the most important members. So I introduced… Hello. Hi. How are you? So who are you? I'm Fabrice Dominguez Santos. I'm the CEO of Piezo-Tech. So Piezo-Tech is an advanced chemical company part of the Arkema Group. Arkema is a chemical group. We are developing electroactive polymers and inks based on these electroactive polymers. So is the stuff over here? Yes, for example, with these polymers, we can… these polymers have different kind of applications. You sound? Yes, it is sound. This is a singing speaker. Sound? Singed speaker? Yeah. That's amazing, no? Yeah. So how do you make that? So in this case, you have a substrate based on PEPD, I think. You put a PIDOT electrode, then you put a layer of our polymers and our inks, then a layer of PIDOT, then you activate it by putting the voltage in order to activate it, and then you have a device. So the device can be used as a sensor and as actuator. So they vibrate? It vibrates. So you can create speakers, you can create actuators for example for catheters, you can create… We are developing a lot of applications for our customer and our partner developing applications for haptic devices to make a surface vibrating. For example, here you have an example where the polymer has been molded on the substrate of the polycarbonate piece and then it's not collected and then if you keep touching that it will provide a haptic feedback. That's awesome. Yes. Automotive industry for example. Here you have an example of the other kind of application more in the sensing application. So here but it's not collected. Just print the polymer and then thanks to this piezo properties it will deliver a signal that will be proportional to the force you apply. That's awesome. It would be great if you didn't have to connect it. Could you have a flexible battery or something? So in this case for the future so this polymer generates their own voltage. So also there is a lot of development in the field of energy harvesting. When you push, when you put a force on the polymer it generates its own voltage. Then it can be used for example to send a Bluetooth signal or to light a low energy display. Come on. You working on this? We are working. Our partners are working on this because me I'm just working to be at ID Tech X and have the booth. This is really cool. Awesome. Thanks a lot. Thanks a lot. Thank you. So you have more. Yes. You can show you other companies also. Yeah. In different applications. Doing printing. Yeah. And the people doing inspection. In core system. Let's go check this one out. Okay. So somebody from the company around here. Artege. Yeah. So please. Yes. Some words. About Artege and your activity. So who are you? Okay. I have to come here? Yeah. So who are you? My name is Pascal Piron. I am CEO of Artege. And so here we are pleased to introduce our original D100 printers. So what is a printer? This printer is let's say a printer dedicated to print electronics. Materials. And so you can use let's say available commercially printed. So you can start at the origin. So let's say to define all the parameters of the process. And you can go step forward up to the industry what we call the infinity. And so here what you see it's let's say we are using let's say some already let's say standard stuff. Let's say to define all the process parameters. And when you shift let's say all these parameters and hold the process in your hands. Then you can go for production and industry. Can we check this out? So this comes out of the printer? Yes. It's very interesting because it's some samples. It's the antennas. Yes. But we have print here. And so you can remove. What is the pattern we see here? So the pattern here it's a shield. It's a shield to let's say to protect from let's say your mobile phone to stop Wi-Fi. Let's say web and so on. So it's a you see this shield. Yes. What is that? And this one here it's a dedicated to finalize. Let's say some sensors or something like that. So you can see easily what we try to print. So not so easily. And this is interesting because here we are printing the antenna. Okay. Flexible substrate. Here you have the reader. So we print the antenna of the reader. And here we print the tag of each. Let's say you see you have five and if I remove one this one is too far. And so the reader can see that this tag is too far. So we have demonstrated that with this machine we are able to bring conductive material to achieve antenna on different substrates for the reader and for the for the FIT ties. We will get it here. It's the same but not flexible rigid material. All right. Cool. So more and more stuff is happening in this area. Yeah sure. Getting busy and more and more. Each day and each where. Yeah. That's great. All right. Thanks a lot. Okay. Thank you. And the last but not the least the our company which we will be in core system which is involved in inspection inspection and control of the printing. So Matilde will introduce a little bit more this activity. Hello. So who are you? Matilde. I'm Matilde. Working for in core system specializing in image processing technology. Line scan camera base scanning full surface for quality control. So there is your technology in there? Yes. Technology. We are specializing in web inspection, online automatic surface inspection and measurements with full traceability solutions tracking and tracing from the raw material to the final product and the metrology and characterization platform for offline inspection. With a niche white table combining two key technologies. Camera scanning the full substrate and thickness measurements as well. So quality control and process monitoring. For quality control of what kind of is it for printed electronics? For printed electronics any kind of surface and flat surfaces. Should it be printed or not transformed or not. From raw material to final product. And these are you making this in France? Yes. We are designing manufacturing and supplying all the solution from France. The know-how is based on the software solution. So it's not only image acquisitions. We are more than camera provider. We are providing the full software tools as well for the data processing in full time and process management as well for quality. All right. So are there many of these machines out in the world? Are you selling many already? Yes, we are. 70% of our activity is done abroad, out of France. In Europe and out of Europe as well. That's very high priority for France to export a lot of technology. Yes, this is as well our core activity. So we are quite flexible and open minded. Are you the best at doing this? I can say that we are the best in what we are doing. That's great. All right. Thanks a lot. You're welcome. Thank you very much for your tour. And also you have these guys over there. We have also these guys. There are also members of Affilim. So you have Seradrop MGI who also produce the Injet printers. You have EZORC. They are building the big factory and develop the sensors. So they are the printing company doing sensors. Also Arjo begins the creative paper. So they developed the smart paper with the tag inside. So you wish to make a small round to see them also? Maybe I'll try to film the booth separately. So this is great. So at this association that you have, there's more and more interest and growth. Yes. We are growing and we are trying to address all different markets that develop the new products. And as I already mentioned, we really try to have the good connection with the end users for the application and the new development. And there's 50 members, you say, right? 56. 56. And some of them suddenly become super successful, right? Yes. Others are developing their research. Exactly. And EZORC is a very big plant which is built, which will be ready in 2017. And then we start the mass production in 2017 in Limoges. So France is pretty good at this. Yes. At doing all this pretty electronic stuff. Yeah. We try to do our best. I do have other big players. Germany is probably the best. And also the U.S. are in advance. And we have a lot of, in terms of the R&D, the France has a very good position in terms of the mass production, the Asian countries are probably a little bit in advance.
