For companies and engineers involved in the production of electronic equipment, the last two years will be memorable for the challenging environment with supply chains, most significantly the chip supply crisis. In 2022 this was global news, and the effects were felt across a range of industries. This talk is the story of a small/medium sized engineering company supplying electronics to the industrial inkjet market, and how it navigated the shortage of vital devices needed to keep the wheels of industry turning. In addition to the engineering challenges faced to work around the availability of parts, the talk will cover what industrial inkjet is, and the established and emerging applications of the technology.
