Nanopositioning of high loads, such as detectors or cameras can be a difficult task.

In addition, many applications require large travel ranges, but have limited installation space available. attocube’s new ECSz5050 piezo drive has been especially developed to meet these demands: it offers an orientation independent force of 8 N over a travel range of 8 mm, without adding to the small footprint of the ECS5050 series (50 mm x 50 mm).
The ECSz5050 is the perfect choice for lateral motion setups, and can be easily combined with the whole range of rotators, goniometers and linear positioners of attocube’s Industrial Line portfolio.
The attocube systems AG was founded in 2001 and is recognized internationally for innovation and excellence in the development, the production, and the distribution of cutting-edge solutions for the most challenging nanotechnology applications in research and industry. The portfolio includes nano drives, used for highly accurate positioning tasks and surface analyses, as well as ultra precise distance sensors and fully integrated microscope and cryostat systems, which work close to the limit of what is technically and physically feasible.
All products are being developed and manufactured at the company’s headquarter in Munich. An international team of physicists, mechanical engineers and product designers closely cooperates from the conception to the delivery of products, which are distributed worldwide. In addition to its premises in Munich, attocube runs two sales offices in the US. A long list of accolades – including the Bavarian Innovation Award 2006, the German Startup Award 2008 and the TOP100 Innovation Award 2013 – further prove attocube’s innovative company spirit.
