There is plenty of talk about how flexible and printed electronics can fit into the transportation field, with an emphasis on the automotive market. However, there are also opportunities in aviation; over the years, speakers from Boeing and Airbus have given presentations on how flexible and printed electronic s can play a role in airplanes.
During both LOPEC 2019, held at Messe Munich, and Printed Electronics Europe 2019, held in Berlin, Dennis Hahn, project leader, Airbus and Dr. Max Seißler of Altran, gave presentations on “Applications for Printed Electronics in the Aviation Industry.” They looked at how much could be saved using printed electronics, how far it is progressing and where the best opportunities could be.
Hahn began his presentation at LOPEC 2019 by asking how printing can affect the way an aircraft is made. Wiring is one key opportunity.
“We have 100km of wiring in an aircraft, and it is only to be expected that more wiring will be
