A process for producing a multilayer dielectric elastomer stack actuator, consisting of a plurality of dielectric layers of at least one elastomer embedded between a plurality of electrode layers, comprises the steps of i) application of a liquid, non-crosslinked elastomer to form the dielectric layer (40) with a reproducible layer thickness of less than 50 mum by means of a scanning apparatus (2) on a substrate, directly subsequent thereto ii) application of electrically conductive material particles to the surface of the dielectric layer to form an electrode layer (41, 42) by utilizing the surface tension of the elastomer, and the final steps iii) at least partial crosslinking of the dielectric layer with an electrode layer lying on the surface in a floating manner by thermal treatment and/or irradiation, and repetition of steps i) to iii), wherein all steps proceed under ambient conditions and with an inactive substrate holder (1) and substrate held immovably. |
