Testing and Inspection
In many applications products will face a wide range of environmental challenges over its lifetime: extended storage, sterilization, stress and abrasion, chemical and biological exposure, high EM fields and energy.
Often, the antagonists are so specific that appropriate test methods become a major challenge.
Our products
Our call to “Think it, Design it, Manufacture it” is more than a slogan. It’s how we work with our own teams and partners each and every day to bring your ideas into reality.
At Exxelia Micropen, we integrate material science + design engineering + printed electronics and the result is Exxelia Micropen technology. This proprietary technology is utilized to design and manufacture the most precise and stable designs in the industry.
Micropenning, a “direct write” technology, is Exxelia Micropen’s proprietary technique for manufacturing all of its products. This proprietary technique allows for the deposition of a wide range of material compositions with higher fidelity, accuracy, repeatability, and thickness control than can be achieved by other printing techniques.

Can they scale and respond to changes in demand?
It is important to choose a partner who can meet your production requirements now and into the future. The manufacturer should be agile and flexible in regard to your demand changes and able to meet your deliveries as agreed. This requires that they have a well-understood supply chain of raw materials and lead times. Make sure to ask about this when selecting a partner. At Exxelia Micropen we have the resources and experience to respond to growth and demand increases.
This is especially important in today’s roller-coaster supply chain economy. We have excellent partnerships with suppliers of ink, substrates, and other raw materials and have a well-established process for supply chain management and production scheduling.
Could you envision them as a long-term partner and collaborator?
The most successful partnerships are long-term and collaborative. The resources on each team should have a shared understanding of the objectives and requirements,
and the chosen supplier should be seen as an extension of your team. This allows challenges to be solved quickly and assures that the project will be completed on time and within budget. Regular meetings, passing files back and forth, and engaging experts in different functions of the organization are all elements of a partnership and lead to the success of the project. Your partner should be proactively communicating throughout the product lifecycle. Your partner may also consider investing in the partnership for the long-term. Over time, as you work together, you’ll be able to apply learnings and efficiency to not only one product but a portfolio of products in a cost-effective and optimized way.
