Nano-Manipulation

Achieve unparalleled accuracy with piezoelectric stages and closed-loop optical feedback for micro-manufacturing.

How we approach Nano-Manipulation

As advanced materials and quantum devices shrink, human hands - and even traditional robots - are too clumsy to assemble them. We engineer nano-manipulation cells that provide sub-micron repeatability, essential for integrating photonics, MEMS, and microscopic bio-sensors.

These systems rely on piezoelectric slip-stick actuators, providing high-resolution motion without the backlash inherent in geared mechanisms. We integrate these actuators into hermetically sealed vacuum or cleanroom environments.

To guarantee precision, we implement multi-camera computer vision and laser interferometry feedback loops, dynamically correcting for thermal expansion and ambient vibration in real-time.

Our custom end-effectors include micro-capillary grippers and laser-assisted soldering tips, turning theoretical nanoscale designs into mass-producible realities.

Precision at the Nanoscale

When the components are smaller than a speck of dust, thermal drift and acoustics become major engineering challenges.

Defeating Vibration

In the sub-micron realm, a passing truck outside the facility looks like an earthquake. We design active pneumatic dampening tables that decouple the robotic cell from the building's foundation.
