Building Systems from Front to Back

Northfield Automation Systems knows the importance of considering a manufacturing effort from front to back and of fully understanding the end goals before a single piece of equipment is identified.

Taking any product from the laboratory through the pilot phase to a full-scale roll-to-roll automated web handling system requires careful consideration of a number of variables.

• What are your options for raw materials and what are their characteristics?
• How will these materials react when various stresses are applied?
• What processes are involved at each stage and how do they interact?
• What are your expectations in terms of throughput and speed?
• What controls are necessary?
• What is the form factor of the product?

Our History in Roll-to-Roll Technology

As a pioneer in the roll-to-roll automation of flexible printed circuits decades ago, Northfield Automation Systems was one of the first companies to develop roll-to-roll equipment that performed laser ablation on printed electronics. We were at the forefront of developing specifications for new and novel raw materials and then establishing a broad supplier base. Our low-inertia roller technology has become an industry standard, and our dancer system is without match.
