Screen printing machines, lasers, and chemical compounds adapted to accommodate the new technique are all used in the production of flexible printed batteries. The final product is a flexible, thin printed battery.

Printed batteries are a type of printed power source that is disposable, thin, and flexible. Batteries are designed for specific applications and are integrated with the devices they power. Customers are now interested in embedding the battery directly into their application, taking use of screen printing possibilities. Flexible hybrid electronics, temperature sensor labels, wireless sensors for healthcare, sports, and logistics have all shown interest in combining printed battery technology with standard semi-conductor components. Disposable, rechargeable, high current, low current, lithium, zinc-manganese, and other types of printed batteries are available.
