Technology & Products

Key Products

["n.jet EHD (Electrohydrodynamic Lab Printer - sub-5 micron resolution with Scrona GEN3 technology)","n.jet lab (Laboratory inkjet printing system)","n.jet evo (Evolutionary inkjet platform)","DMP-2850 (Laboratory printing equipment)","n.jet soldermask (PCB solder mask printing system)","Photolithography & Wet Processing Systems","Inkjet Printing Systems for functional materials","Fully automated industrial production systems for OLED/QLED displays"]

Technological Advantage

Platform-based architecture spanning from laboratory R&D equipment to fully automated industrial production systems; combined with Scrona's multi-nozzle MEMS EHD printheads for industrial throughput alongside ultra-high precision; merger with Osiris International (July 2025) creates fully integrated next-generation solutions for semiconductor and advanced display manufacturing; enables replacement of established subtractive process chains with additive processes that are both ecological and economical

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Enables end-to-end digital, non-contact, maskless inkjet printing with sub-5 micron resolution for functional materials; replaces traditional subtractive processes with additive manufacturing, reducing waste and energy consumption while enabling wet-on-wet processing and eliminating the need for masks or screens

How They Differentiate

Notion Systems differentiates through end-to-end 'One Stop Solution' offering complete process chain from photolithography and wet processing to advanced inkjet printing. Their proprietary electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing technology achieves sub-5 micron resolution, exceeding conventional inkjet by 2-3 orders of magnitude. Combined with no.mura technology for mura-free printing and wet-on-wet processing capabilities, they enable digital, non-contact, maskless additive patterning at the micron scale with multi-material capability.
