Cryostats
Scientific Analysis / R&D - Low Tem.
Fundamental research in physics & materials science often takes place at low or variable
temperatures, and in high magnetic fields. Automated & autonomous cooling systems, high
resolution microscopes, and ultra-precise motion and sensing solutions are ubiquitous work-
horses in today‘s R&D in nanotechnology.
Scientific Analysis / R&D - Vacuum
A lot of research at beamlines and in surface science is conducted in (ultra-) high vacuum.
attocube's motion and sensing products are ideally suited for precisely positioning speci-
mens in particle beams, operating shutters or measuring displacements reliably and with low
outgassing.
Scientific Analysis / R&D - Ambient
Many applications in research, e.g. microscopy and nanomanipulation, require flexible prod-
ucts and highest precision for positioning and analyzing structures. attocube provides micros-
copy solutions, positioners, and sensors for various analyses under ambient environment.
Motion Control
Nanotechnology is one of the biggest drivers of innovation today. The ongoing miniatur-
ization requires ultra-precise multi-dimensional actuators and sensors in almost any field of
motion control. attocube’s products are made for high precision positioning and detecting of
error motions in various applications and setups.
Semicon
The semiconductor production requires wafers to be processed under extreme conditions
(e.g. high temperature and/or high vacuum), while repeatability on the nanometer scale has to
be reached. Conventional positioning and sensing solutions would fail for those conditions,
while attocube‘products are made for highest accuracy even in extreme environments.
Mechanical Engineering/Machine Tools
Positioning, motion control and detection are essential applications in manufacturing pro-
cesses. attocube‘s products are used for quality control, positioning tools and work pieces
in manufacturing processes, position control of linear stages as well as vibration analysis of
machine tools.
Synchrotron
At synchrotrons, an essential requirement is to be able to precisely position particle beams,
shutters and specimens with respect to one another. attocube‘s motion and sensor products
are ideally suited for these applications under high radation and in ultra-high vacuum.
Optics & Photonics
Photonics applications often require highest levels of precision and accuracy. attocube's mo-
tion systems are used e.g. in conjunction with aligning fiber optics, or positioning of lenses or
other optical elements, while the sensorics systems are capable of measuring on almost any
surface such as directly on glass.
