OWFabricator.
Make the board. Make the die. In the room.
A desktop fabrication appliance — the 3D printer for electronics, from the circuit board to the chip. Clean, onshore, on demand.
Every leap in making came from one move.
Bringing fabrication closer to the person with the idea — closing the distance between a design and the thing itself. Each time it happened, making exploded.
Machining came to the bench. So did 3D printing.
Industrial, then modular, then a mill and a printer on every desk. A generation grew up turning a design into an object overnight — because the loop finally closed.
One thing never quite made the journey.
The electronics inside everything we build — the circuit board, and the chip, the parts that make every other part smart. They still wait on the far side of that old wall.
OWFabricator brings it home.
The same move, for electronics. Additive, subtractive, and measurement on a single stage — enclosed, cartridge-fed, plugged into the wall. Design and fabrication, at last, on the same bench.
The board. The die. The liquid.
OWFabricator / PCB makes the board. OWFabricator / Nano makes the chip. OWFabricator / Liquid makes the substrates silicon cannot reach — OECT synaptic arrays, reconfigurable-antenna modules, spatial-parallel reaction cells. One machine family — the desktop revolution, reaching every part of the electronics stack.
A design becomes a finished thing, in the room.
In hours, clean, and onshore — wherever the design happens. Labs, startups, classrooms, makerspaces, the field. The supply chain becomes a bench.
One machine family. Trace to transistor to substrate.
Three variants share a stage, a software environment, and a process model — so a design moves from the board to the die to the liquid substrate without leaving the room.
The board.
Drill, print, dispense, reflow — every rapid-prototyping job a desktop PCB printer does, now inside the appliance and the openWafer loop.
Deep dive →The die.
The full multi-mode nanofab: sub-micron additive and subtractive on one stage, for chip-scale, photonic, and MEMS structures a board house can’t reach.
Deep dive →The liquid.
OECT, liquid-metal, reaction-diffusion. Wearable neuromorphic, reconfigurable RF, spatial-parallel primitives. The substrates silicon does not serve, on the same chassis.
Deep dive →Additive, low-temperature, point-of-use. No cleanroom, no etch line, no chemical bath — clean because of how it works, not in spite of it.
Up to 90% less material waste and no hazardous etchant, at a fraction of the water and energy of subtractive fabrication.
Design in JLandauer, fabricate in the room, iterate in hours. Change the recipe and re-fab — process design at the speed of software.
openWafer designs custom silicon and routes it to a foundry. OWFabricator closes the loop — and brings it home: from routing to a fab, to being the fab; from an overseas queue, to your bench.
In development.
Plan-of-record set. We’re sharing this early with the partners and builders who want to make fabrication onshore, clean, and fast.
