Nanoimprint Lithography Equipment for Process Validation and High-Volume Production

Built on 25+ years of nanoimprint engineering and patented HoloPrint® Optical Engine technology, Stensborg enables the transition from process development to industrial production through reproducible, high-throughput nanoimprint manufacturing.

Our Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography (RNIL) equipment is designed for the mass-fabrication of high-precision micro- and nanostructured surfaces and components, enabling engineers to validate manufacturable processes, establish repeatable production parameters, and scale from laboratory development to large-area, high-volume manufacturing.

OUR TECHNOLOGY

Accelerating the Industrialisation of Nanostructured Surfaces with HoloPrint® technology

Many nano-enabled products fail to scale because laboratory processes cannot be reproduced under industrial conditions. Stensborg addresses this gap with IP-backed Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography (RNIL), combining mechanical precision with localized UV curing at the nip point to enable continuous, high-fidelity replication.

The patented HoloPrint® optical nip architecture delivers focused UV curing directly at the imprint interface, enabling accurate replication of sub-100 nm structures across rigid and flexible substrates. The result is a scalable manufacturing process with improved yield, reduced material waste, and the throughput required for high-volume production of functional nanostructures.

FEATURED PRODUCT

Desktop Roll NanoImprinter 3.0

A digitally controlled roll-to-plate UV nanoimprint system for validating manufacturable processes under production-relevant conditions. Unlike conventional laboratory tools focused on feasibility testing, Desktop 3.0 integrates sensor-driven monitoring, automated recipe control, and full process traceability to enable reproducible nanoimprint workflows.

This enables engineering teams to establish repeatable manufacturing workflows with confidence before investing in pilot or production-scale equipment.

Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography vs. Hot Embossing: Which Is Best for Your Application at Scale?

Hot embossing and rolling nanoimprint lithography (RNIL) both replicate nanoscale patterns through physical contact, but they’re built for different applications. This guide compares feature resolution, pattern fidelity, and scalability between the two processes and breaks down which technology fits photonics, energy, and automotive applications at industrial volumes.
