abstract = "Due to recent developments in product design and production the need for individual products and integration of functions into products, produced at low cost and in even shorter time with a batch size of 1 is rising rapidly. The additive layer manufacturing processes are well suited to serve this purpose as they fabricate devices with no need for pre-tooling and offer the chance to eliminate the need for post-assembling once functionality is integrated into produced devices. One of these additive manufacturing technologies is the powder bed 3D inkjet printing process, which is based on the polymerization of a liquid dispensed into a powder bed. The special challenges here are to increase product quality such as tensile strength and density in addition to the integration of functionalities such as electrical conductivity. Therefore a multimaterial application mechanism was constructed to deposit a conductive material on a polymer base. Consequently a simulation model was developed.",
