ALPHA Inside Symbiose: SMART MATERIAL

ALPHA Inside Symbiose: SMART MATERIAL

Integrating electronics and photonics into the very fabric of materials is no longer a vision for the future—it is an industrial reality.

The ALPHA-RLH Cluster invites you to SYMBIOSE for a morning session focused on smart materials and printed electronics technologies applied to in-mold electronics (IME), human-machine interfaces (HMI), and functional lighting solutions.

Topics covered:

- Printing of conductive and resistive inks and functional sensors.
- Electronic and photonic integration on functional films, injection-molded parts, and three-dimensional surfaces.

- Development and manufacture of flexible PCBs as a replacement for FR4 PCBs, intended for overmolding or direct integration into systems.

- Thermomechanical constraints and reliability in industrial environments.
- Simplified assembly, reduced weight, and cost optimization.
- Transition from prototype to mass production.

This morning session, featuring presentations and practical discussions on technological barriers, lessons learned, and opportunities for industrialization, will conclude with a networking reception.
