Abstract: A method for manufacturing an electrical conductor by applying at least one paste, in particular a thick-film paste, to a substrate by a dispensing operation, wherein the paste is applied in at least one strand.

Abstract: A method for producing printing stencils, especially for screen printing methods, and particularly those for use in filling at least one contact hole formed in a printed-circuit board, a pattern artwork being reproduced on the stencil, which corresponds to an arrangement of contact holes on the printed-circuit board. It is provided that the pattern artwork reproduced on the stencil be produced in the same working process, especially a punching process, using a cluster punching tool, as the at least one contact hole on the printed-circuit board. Also, a stencil device is provided.

Abstract: A method of producing a hybrid product composed of a plurality of wiring planes includes printing a plurality of wiring planes with a homogenous metallization base material, performing at least one corresponding sintering step for fixing the metallization base material, and homogeneously chemically coating of freely located sintered metallization base material with at least one coating material; and also a sensor circuit or an evaluating circuit for a sensor as well as a control device are proposed with the hybrid product produced in accordance with the method.
