Hummink
Hummink is the leading developer and supplier of High Precision Capillary Printing (HPCaP), a revolutionary micro-printing technology for the display, semiconductor, and printed electronics industries. Spun off from world-renowned research institutes, the company is based in France with representatives worldwide, including the USA, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, and across Europe. Inspired by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), HPCaP enables micron- and sub-micron-scale printing by using capillary forces and controlled resonance, without external energy sources such as UV, lasers, or pressure. A glass micropipette mounted on a resonator precisely deposits materials while adapting in real time to substrate topography. The technology achieves resolutions from 50 µm down to 100 nm and can print a wide range of materials, including high-viscosity inks. Hummink provides both equipment and inks through a single partnership. Its NAZCA platform is an all-in-one micro-printing solution for prototyping and small-scale production, while the technology can also be integrated directly into industrial manufacturing lines.
