Foster-Miller has fabricated materials and parts for hundreds of projects. These cover a wide array of applications including ships, ground vehicles, air and spacecraft, biomedical devices, microelectronics, apparel, and fuel cells.
We utilize formulation and processing expertise to apply our core materials technologies to real-world customer problems, from fuel cells to surgical instruments. Some of our projects, such as LAST® Armor, proceed to full commercialization with Foster-Miller directly involved in fabrication or licensing the technology for manufacture. Other projects meet customer requirements upon delivery of a working prototype.
An excellent example of applying a base technology is liquid crystal polymer (LCP) electronics packaging. We developed the world’s first viable (biaxially oriented) LCP films through innovative polymer processing technology and have licensed this technology to Gore and Kuraray (in Japan) who are selling LCP films for use as printed circuit board materials. LCPs are also beneficial as electronic substrates and packaging platforms, and we have achieved several milestones towards this application area.
