Increasing potential as a next-generation manufacturing technology
Micro Piezo Technology has enormous potential as a new technology that can both contribute to reduction of the burden on our precious environmental resources and improve product speed and cost competitiveness.
Micro Piezo Technology has the potential to change the future of our industry by helping to realize factories that are more efficient, both economically and ecologically. As the world works toward more effective ecological measures, Epson's Micro Piezo Technology will play a valuable part by supporting the shift from mere 'factories' toward 'factories in harmony with the natural environment.'

The desktop factory is a concept that typifies the kinds of future applications that Epson envisages for its Micro Piezo Technology. This technology will facilitate a shift away from the energy-guzzling "mega factories" of the past toward compact, energy-saving desktop factories. The desktop factory is based on the idea of a small-footprint manufacturing facility that requires minimal space for its clean room.
