3D printing focused antenna manufacturer SWISSto12 has been awarded a 10 million dollar contract for RF equipment to be deployed at sea for an undisclosed client.
SWISSto12 has made a name for itself by developing innovative designs and utilizing proprietary 3D printing technologies. These technologies enable the manufacture of the next generation of RF communication and sensing products qualified for use in maritime, airborne and terrestrial applications. The company has the world’s largest patent portfolio in the field of 3D printing applications for RF products, underpinning its position as a technology leader in this field.
The RF products manufactured by SWISSto12 are characterized by their lightweight design, compactness and robustness, which makes them particularly suitable for use in demanding environments such as at sea.
Frank Schreckenbach, Chief Product Officer, said “Legacy antennas were restricted by traditional manufacturing and assembly constraints. SWISSto12’s proprietary 3D printing technologies allow for the additive manufacture of highly complex, lightweight antenna designs that optimize performance and throughput while enhancing coverage flexibility. This introduces a new category of antenna performance which has broad benefits for safety applications in maritime, airborne and ground environments.”
These advanced antennas open up a new category of antenna performance that offers broad benefits for security applications in maritime, airborne and terrestrial environments. SWISSto12 demonstrates how 3D printing in radio frequency technology not only enables innovative product designs, but also plays a significant role in increasing safety in critical applications. The current order underlines the growing importance of 3D-printed solutions in modern communication and security technology.
