Flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs) include single- or double-sided PCBs, multilayer PCBs, and rigid-flex PCBs [1]. They are bendable circuits made from flexible materials like polyimide. FPCBs are commonly used in industries such as consumer electronics, automotive systems, medical devices, and aerospace because they fit into compact or curved spaces.
Lightweight, adaptable designs are crucial for the development of flexible electronics. Using direct ink writing (DIW) machines, flexible PCBs can be printed by depositing conductive inks onto flexible substrates, enabling efficient and customizable production.
