AndTech Company Profile

[Lecture Summary] In the context of Abenomics, the medical device industry is expected to develop further, with the government promising support. Among these, catheters are important medical devices. I will explain the biocompatibility and safety required for catheters, including standards, regulations, test items, and test content. Furthermore, I will introduce what is necessary for the regulatory procedures to obtain approval for the manufacturing and sales of medical devices from the government, focusing on plastic raw materials. This requires obtaining necessary information from raw material manufacturers. Additionally, I will explain the relationships between the two companies and product liability.

【Course Overview】 New biosensors with functions such as ultra-thin, ultra-lightweight, and ultra-flexible designs are being actively researched to achieve higher biocompatibility. This course will introduce the manufacturing process of large-area sensors using printing processes. It will cover silver nanoparticle inks for low-temperature sintering high-resolution inkjet printing devices that can form devices on ultra-thin films at low temperatures, as well as the adhesion control of printed wiring that prevents disconnection even on ultra-flexible films. Part 1: Large-area organic integrated circuit printing on ultra-thin films using printed electronics technology and sensor applications 【11:30-12:45】 Instructor: Yamagata University Part 2: Polymer film substrate materials for printed electronics 【13:30-14:45】 Instructor: Toyobo Co., Ltd. Part 3: Development of silver paste for gravure offset and printed electronics applications 【15:00-16:15】 Instructor: Satoshi Shiota, Head of the 2nd Department, 3rd Technical Development Division, DNP Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.
