ioTech, pioneer of Continuous Laser Assisted Deposition (CLAD) technology and winner of multiple innovation awards, will unveil its new io600 inline system at productronica 2025 (Hall A2, Booth 236). The io600 brings CLAD into high-volume, inline manufacturing, marking a major step in the industrialization of digital laser material deposition. The io600 is co-funded by the European Union.
From LIFT to CLAD, and why it matters
LIFT (Laser-Induced Forward Transfer) proved that laser-driven, nozzle-free deposition can digitally place functional materials with unmatched precision. ioTech’s CLAD technology extends this breakthrough: continuous operation, higher speeds, larger areas, and factory-grade robustness. In short: LIFT invented it, CLAD industrialized it.
io600 – pushing performance boundaries
- Faster – up to 7.2 million dots per hour
- Larger – increased active work area of 600 x 600 mm
- Higher resolution & accuracy – 50µm resolution and ±10µm position accuracy
- Low cost of ownership – no wear parts, no cleaning required
A new chapter: from lab to fab
The io600 enables CLAD to move beyond batch manufacturing into true industrial-scale production, combining unmatched material flexibility, ultra-high resolution, and speed. It can digitally process a broad range of industrial materials, dielectric and conductive, from polymers and solder pastes to conductive inks, metals, and ceramics. The non-contact, nozzle-free laser approach eliminates clogging, supports high-viscosity materials, and enables multi-layer complex geometries for next-generation electronics.
Michael Zenou, ioTech’s co-founder and CTO, commented:
“With the io600, CLAD technology is inline production ready. Faster, larger, and fully factory-integrated, it enables customers to scale from agile prototyping to high-volume manufacturing. This launch is a major leap forward for deposition technologies and for electronics manufacturing as a whole.”
Serving tomorrow’s industries
ioTech’s CLAD technology is already a trusted solution for leaders in semiconductors, advanced packaging and smart tags, enabling the next generation of electronic devices with higher throughput, flexibility, and sustainability.
