Limata — Next-level direct imaging for PCB manufacturing

Raising the standard for human-machine interfaces in direct imaging

Limata — Next-level direct imaging for PCB manufacturing

Limata, an industry leader in digital imaging for PCB manufacturing, approached us to rethink and unify their design language across all their digital experiences — from website and communication to the software used in production. But what made this project unique and interesting for us was Limata’s openness to raising the bar for the design of the HMI used in daily machine operation.

We created a new storytelling for a trust-heavy industrial market, making the value proposition clearer and more compelling for decision-makers while preserving the right level of technical depth and proof. At the same time, we redesigned the HMI to to match the level of clarity and polish users increasingly expect from modern software, and improved Path-X to streamline engineering workflows.

The result was a unified redesign of Limata’s digital touchpoints, connected through a new shared design language.

What we did
Storytelling
Refined Limata’s value proposition and crafted a clear story for a trust-heavy industrial market — making the offering easy to understand while preserving the technical depth
Product design
Redesigned both the operator HMI and Path-X software for PCB engineers — simplifying workflows and improving usability
Website
Created a new information architecture, page structure, communication and illustration system for the website — all wrapped up in a shiny new visual direction
Unified design language
Created a shared design language across all digital touchpoints, creating a more coherent experience across marketing and product
Limata HMI
By applying principles more commonly seen in modern software design — clarity, hierarchy, feedback, and progressive disclosure — we turned a traditionally complex machine interface into a intuitive and confident user experience

X series
First, we gave ample space to showcase each product’s visuals, key benefits, and a clear breakdown of features and differences. From there, we moved into the broader story around smart manufacturing, automation, support, and, critically, total cost of ownership (TCO)

QUOTE
“What stood out about Resonate was not only their design capability, but how deeply they understood our technology, our processes, and the practical realities of machine operation. That understanding was critical in redesigning our software and HMI, and it also enabled them to communicate our value in a way that is clearer, sharper, and still technically credible.”
