Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography (RNIL) is becoming increasingly important in life sciences and biomedical research, offering new ways to produce intricate, high-resolution nanoscale features cost-effectively.

While PDMS stamps and certain resins are valuable for some bio-applications, they can slow down the nanoimprinting process when used in less suitable scenarios. The Desktop Roll NanoImprinter 3.0 solves this by offering broad compatibility with a wide range of UV-curable resins, including those used in flexible Nanoimprint Lithography and biomedical research. This allows researchers to efficiently prototype high-resolution micro- and nanostructures without common material compatibility issues.

Rapid and cost-competitive, our compact desktop is a high-resolution nanoimprinting solution for medical researchers looking for a versatile technology to empower their projects. Featuring the same nip imprinting technology as our high-volume equipment, the easily customisable parameters facilitate upscaling of productions to larger batches, ultimately saving resources and streamlining developments.

Developing new medical and healthcare devices or diagnostic methods comes with several commercial challenges such as extensive high-cost laboratory equipment, required new material expertise, and time-consuming experimentation stages. Stensborg’s Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography (RNIL) systems were designed to overcome these issues with a more cost-effective yet high-quality solution.

Stensborg’s nanoimprinting specialists provide end-to-end support to your project, ensuring your innovations make it to the hands of practitioners. From widely compatible UV curing resins to proof of microstructure design and customisable nanoreplication equipment, our team is dedicated to ensuring your success.

For smaller imprinting areas, the Desktop Roll NanoImprinter 3.0 offers a versatile solution that supports the development of microchannels, lab-on-a-chip, organ-on-a-chip, DNA sequencing, functional cell surfaces, and other medical applications.. Its patented nip imprint system equips users with a larger pressure process range, reducing contact time, lowering base material conformity needs, and providing a wider imprinting speed window (from 0.005 to 5 m/min). When properly automated, it can seamlessly be integrated into a larger production line, offering a reliable pathway from prototyping to full-scale mass manufacturing with our custom-made industrial machines.

Surface engineers need precise, high-resolution nanoimprinting capabilities to competitively manufacture intricate microscopic structures for healthcare applications. However, it’s well-known that traditional nanoimprinting tools require lengthy processing times, tying up valuable production equipment for tests and trials.

Stensborg’s Roll-to-Roll (R2R) and Roll-to-Plate (R2P) nanoimprinting systems overcome these challenges with high-precision nip-based imprinting, ensuring uniform replication and reliable demolding, across both small and large imprinting areas. Our flexible approach to nano replication is scalable and cost-effective, equipping developers with a high-throughput solution to achieve consistent, high-quality structural components for medical sensors and devices.

To confidently get your production started, our Desktop Roll NanoImprinter 3.0 facilitates early testing and validation of nanoscale imprinting techniques, allowing for faster iterations of the development cycle. Compatible with our industrial high-volume systems, it can be used across multiple departments and R&D projects for prototyping and small-batch production for confidently later upscale.
