V-OneNOVAConnecting Flexible and Stretchable Substrates to Printed Circuit Boards
Connecting flexible circuits to traditional printed circuit boards (PCBs) is commonly called flexible-to-rigid interconnections. They enable flexible sensors, displays, wearables, and other flexible electronics to communicate with microcontrollers, power management systems, and external devices.

Frequently asked questions
Voltera use cases include both our internal projects and customer success stories. They showcase what’s possible with additive prototyping systems like V-One and NOVA, from rapid PCB development to advanced materials research. In addition to hands-on projects, we also publish application overviews that provide market and technical insights into common electronics use cases, such as printed antennas, printed batteries, and bioelectronics.
If you’re working with rigid substrates and conventional PCBs, V-One is the ideal choice, enabling same-day, in-house iteration. If your work involves novel materials, flexible or stretchable form factors, or multilayer structures, NOVA is the better fit, offering high-precision dispensing, compatibility with biocompatible materials, and smart algorithms for multilayer printing.
If you’ve read a white paper or application overview describing a similar project, chances are V-One or NOVA will be a good fit. If your requirements are still taking shape, we’re happy to connect and help you evaluate material choices, printing parameters, and lab setup to ensure you get started on the right path.
