Sono-Tek Receives Record Order of Over $3.6 Million for a Single Integrated Production Line
Author By Sophia VidaPosted on Largest Single Production Line Order in Company History Will Support High-Volume Medical Diagnostic Manufacturing
MILTON, N.Y., Aug. 11, 2026 – PRISM MediaWire (Press Release Service – Press Release Distribution) – Sono-Tek Corporation (Nasdaq: SOTK), the leading developer and manufacturer of ultrasonic coating systems, today announced that it has received a purchase order valued at over $3.6 million for an advanced manufacturing production line to be used in the manufacture of medical diagnostic devices. The order is the largest in Sono-Tek’s history for a single integrated production line. Certain previous orders have had a higher total value but included multiple independent systems.
The order was placed by an existing customer that has successfully established and validated its coating process using earlier Sono-Tek platforms. This latest purchase represents a significant expansion in both production capability and overall system complexity, reflecting the customer’s transition from process development to high-volume manufacturing.
The new integrated production line will combine Sono-Tek’s ultrasonic coating technology with complementary process capabilities and advanced automation. The production line is designed to enable the customer to scale its validated coating process to higher volume manufacturing. The system is expected to ship during fiscal year 2028.
Steve Harshbarger, President and CEO of Sono-Tek, commented:
“This record production line order represents an important milestone for Sono-Tek and marks a major step forward in our relationship with this customer. After successfully developing and validating its process using our earlier coating platforms, the customer is now moving to a substantially larger and more sophisticated automated manufacturing line designed for high-volume production.”
“The size and scope of the order demonstrate the significant opportunity created when customers successfully scale a proven process using Sono-Tek technology. It is also a powerful example of our long-term growth strategy: supporting customers from process development through full-scale manufacturing with increasingly complex systems and significantly higher average selling prices.”
“The integrated production line purchase further reinforces Sono-Tek’s position in the medical device coating sector, a key component of the Company’s long-term growth strategy. The customer’s progression from early process development systems to a recently announced $820,000 production system—and now to a record integrated production line valued at over $3.6 million—illustrates Sono-Tek’s ability to grow alongside its customers as they advance from process development to full-scale automated manufacturing.”
