SONO TEK CORP

SONO TEK CORP designs and manufactures ultrasonic coating systems. The company is a global leader in this field, providing systems that apply precise, thin film coatings to add functional properties, protect, or strengthen surfaces on parts and components. These systems serve the microelectronics/electronics, alternative energy, medical, industrial, and emerging research & development/other markets. SONO TEK CORP designs and manufactures custom-engineered ultrasonic coating systems using its patented technology and applications engineering knowledge. Their ultrasonic nozzle systems use high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations to atomize liquids into minute drops, which are then applied to surfaces at low velocity. This process creates microscopic layers of protective and other useful materials on various surfaces, including glass and metals. The company's equipment solutions are environmentally friendly, efficient, and highly reliable. They help customers achieve significant reductions in overspray, save raw materials, water, and energy, and provide improved process repeatability, transfer efficiency, high uniformity, and reduced emissions. SONO TEK CORP serves a broad base of customers across various industries and applications. The initial application of their technology was to coat the inner surface of blood collection tubes for medical diagnostic testing, enabling the application of a thin and uniform coating to prevent blood coagulation. Subsequently, the technology was used for applying uniform flux coatings to printed circuit boards, a critical part of electronic device fabrication. A later application involved larger surfaces for specialized glass applications in the construction and automotive industries. In these applications, SONO TEK CORP's ultrasonic nozzles provide coatings that improve durability, create filters, increase clarity, reduce reflection, enable conductivity, and enhance safety. The company has invested resources to enhance its market diversity by leveraging its core ultrasonic coating technology.
