Inspira Technologies (Nasdaq: IINN) and Qarakal Quantum are collaborating to test 3D-printed electronic structures at milli-Kelvin temperatures, conditions far colder than deep space, in an effort to overcome a key obstacle to scaling quantum computers. The joint development agreement will see Inspira’s QTREX platform, an additively manufactured electronics system, evaluated for its ability to handle high-density routing, integrated transitions, and embedded shielding concepts, as well as other complex interconnect geometries crucial for advanced quantum processors. Qarakal Quantum will integrate and test these structures within its cryogenic development environment, providing direct engineering feedback on performance. “This Agreement places Inspira’s technology in a real-world quantum development environment, where its performance can be evaluated under relevant cryogenic conditions,” said Dagi Ben-Noon, Chief Executive Officer of Inspira; the partnership aims to address the critical need for improved signal connectivity and thermal efficiency within dilution refrigerators as quantum systems grow in complexity.
QTREX AME Platform for Cryogenic Signal Connectivity
Millikelvin temperatures, conditions far colder than outer space, will serve as the proving ground for a novel approach to quantum computer connectivity. Inspira Technologies (Nasdaq: IINN) is collaborating with Qarakal Quantum to test the QTREX Additively Manufactured Electronics platform, a system designed to overcome a critical obstacle in scaling superconducting quantum computers: managing signal density within the extreme cold of dilution refrigerators. The core of the challenge lies in efficiently routing signals to and from qubits while minimizing heat transfer, a task complicated by the sheer number of connections required as quantum processors grow in complexity. QTREX is not simply about 3D printing components; it’s a platform engineered for specific functionalities.
The partnership between Inspira, a publicly traded firm specializing in 3D-printed electronics, and Qarakal Quantum, a full-stack quantum computing company, represents a strategic alignment of expertise. Dr. Nissan Maskil, CEO of Qarakal Quantum, highlighted the importance of this work for future scalability: “At Qarakal, our mission is to move quantum computing beyond monolithic lab machines toward modular, deployable, and scalable quantum infrastructure. A critical bottleneck in this evolution is the cabling density and thermal efficiency required to manage scaling signal connectivity within the dilution refrigerator.”
Qarakal Quantum’s Modular Superconducting Processor Development
The pursuit of scalable quantum computing increasingly focuses on overcoming limitations within the cryogenic environment, where superconducting qubits operate. Current systems, while demonstrating quantum phenomena, struggle with the sheer density of interconnects needed to control and read out a large number of qubits; managing signal routing and thermal loads becomes exponentially more difficult as qubit counts rise. Qarakal Quantum is addressing this challenge through a modular approach to superconducting processor development, and a new collaboration with Inspira Technologies aims to accelerate progress. Dr. The collaboration isn’t simply about validating a 3D-printed component; it’s a structured program focused on measurable execution against one of the field’s most important scaling challenges, as Ben-Noon emphasizes, with defined metrics and direct engineering feedback loops.
This Agreement places Inspira’s technology in a real-world quantum development environment, where its performance can be evaluated under relevant cryogenic conditions.

Joint Development Agreement Success Metrics & Testing
Qarakal Quantum, a full-stack quantum computing firm, is now actively evaluating Inspira Technologies’ additively manufactured electronics within a functioning superconducting quantum system; this collaboration addresses a fundamental obstacle to scaling quantum computers, efficient signal connectivity at extremely low temperatures. The partnership, formalized through a Joint Development Agreement, is not merely about proving a 3D-printing process, but establishing quantifiable success metrics for performance within a demanding cryogenic environment. Qarakal’s role extends beyond integration; the company will provide detailed engineering feedback on Inspira’s designs, ensuring iterative improvements based on real-world performance data. “This is a structured technical collaboration built around defined metrics, direct cryogenic testing, and engineering feedback,” according to Dr.
