We listen to you carefully, understand your processes and work with you to develop individual solutions that are precisely tailored to your requirements.
Rely on the original on the market and also benefit from DART - our new patented real-time screening technology that records hundreds of measuring points per second, automatically compensates for deformations and thus significantly reduces your reject rate.
In high-tech manufacturing, the adaptability of your systems is often the deciding factor between success and downtime. We know the typical stumbling blocks - from excessive rejects and long set-up times to inflexible systems.
This is exactly where MIVA comes in: Discover how we can optimize your production processes with custom-fit, modular direct imaging solutions and personal service tailored to your needs.
Although today's technology is very precise, a certain amount of rejects of up to 4% still occur in production.
Experience has shown that our technology reduces this waste by a further 25% while maintaining the same high product quality.
Slow alignment, time-consuming mask changes and long set-up times slow down your throughput.
Our LED direct imagers with DART Scan achieve 4× faster registration and up to 15,000 light pulses/s.
Top machines are expensive to purchase and maintain - ROI often takes years.
MIVA systems pay for themselves more quickly: lower operating costs, predictable service contracts and higher yields ensure a significantly shorter pay-back phase.
Standard machines often require upgrading or conversion when you switch from prototypes to series or other formats - this costs time, money and slows down your production.
With MIVA, you can realize prototypes and series production on the same modular system. Our customized systems adapt to your processes - whether panel size 30″×60″ or roll-to-roll, from small series to mass production.
Downtime, expensive spare parts and long service intervals block your capacities.
Thanks to the granite base, fewer moving components and personal support within 24 hours, MIVA systems run like Swiss clockwork.
Off-the-shelf machines don't understand your processes - and anonymous hotlines don't solve your problems.
We listen, understand your processes and develop customized systems that really fit. With our personal support (remote & on-site), there are no long downtimes, but genuine co-engineering solutions.
Whether you are looking for a proven standard machine, want to customize fine details or need a direct imaging machine that is completely tailored to your process - MIVA is the right partner for you.

Our patented real-time rasterization combines software and hardware in four modules:
Uses the built-in machine camera to measure line widths and feature sizes directly after exposure and readjust them digitally in real time.
Creates a complete 3D height profile of your exposed surface after developing/etching and thus uncovers printing or etching deviations.
Scans hundreds to thousands of measuring points over the entire panel surface in 1-3 seconds (instead of 2-4 points in 8-10 seconds).
Automatically adjusts drill holes and laser cuts to the measured actual scale ("best fit") instead of working rigidly according to target data.

Since 1986, we have combined deep engineering knowledge with true partnership. Our founder, Robin Pagan, co-developed the imaging head technologies that set the standard for the entire industry today. This pioneering work - from the early halftone photoplotters to modern direct imaging systems - gave rise to a clear attitude: innovative technology follows the process, not the other way around.
Because our partners' everyday lives are not rigid: materials vary, designs change, cycles increase. Our answer to this is machines that adapt to your process, not the other way around - through modular architecture, customized configurations and DART, our digitally adaptive screening in real time. This results in solutions that are precise, scalable and economical in the long term. In short: MIVA - meet(s) your needs.
The focus is on your success over the entire life cycle - not the one-off purchase. What sets MIVA apart is the cooperation and the handshake you can rely on: We listen, think ahead in your processes and deliver on time - from the first conversation to the productive line. This gives you a partnership at eye level with tailor-made solutions and reliable service that ensures quality, precision, speed and cost-effectiveness in the long term.

In your production, the first exposure step determines everything that follows: Quality, cycle, deadlines, trust. We are convinced that technology must serve the process - every day, under real conditions. That's why we take responsibility right where precision begins.
We listen, map your process and work with you to develop a configuration that fits today and grows with you tomorrow.
Our DART technology thinks in real time, compensates for deviations before they become expensive, and our compact granite systems (direct imagesetters and mask writers) deliver stable repeat accuracy, high yield and fast changeovers. Options only come along for the ride if they bring real benefits.
And if things get stuck, talk to people, not ticket numbers - to someone who knows your system, has seen your drawings and understands your goals. Short lines of communication, quick feedback - we stay on it until it's up and running and even after that. That's the handshake you can count on and the partnership you can build on.
Take the next step: find your customized direct imaging solution. Our entire team is already looking forward to getting to know you and helping you to make your imaging more precise, faster and more economical!
