Why Limata
Advancing PCB production with next-level direct imaging
Manufacturers shaping the future of advanced electronics choose Limata. Here’s why
01
Ultimate manufacturing flexibility for present and future needs
Any volume and product stage — from prototyping and short-run to mass-production
Any panel size and type — from standard (18 x 24") to oversized (48 x 110") — rigid or flex
Modular and scalable — tailored configurations from 1 to 3 heads — upgradable in the field
Manual or turnkey automated — seamlessly scale to high-volume without process transfer
X series
02
Superior imaging performance
2.5x higher speed and throughput per imaging head* — more capacity with fewer exposure engines
Sharpest circuitry — highest line precision, uniformity and superior yields — even for the most challenging PCB designs and topographies
All PCB applications — from standard and advanced PCBs to ultra-fine line patterning and solder mask imaging — across diverse material types
* Compared to standard DMD LED and laser-based DI systems
03
Industry-leading direct imaging efficiency. Reduced complexity. Lower TCO*
Highest imaging speed and efficiency — prints per head
Outstanding imaging quality and consistency for superior yields
Best-in-class availability and reliability — advanced predictive control capabilities paired with unmatched MTBF/MTTR (PX tech) maximize uptime
Reduced system complexity through fewer heads — lower CapEx, simplified service and reduced aftersales costs over the equipment lifecycle (TCO)
* Total cost of ownership
