ABOUT MAD CITY LABS, INC.
Mad City Labs, Inc is a leading manufacturer of flexure based nanopositioning systems capable of sub-nanometer positioning resolution. Our product line covers the entire spectrum of nanopositioning capabilities while maintaining a leadership role in multi-axis stages for high speed optical microscopy imaging. Mad City Labs design engineers use 3D CAD and finite element analysis to produce nanopositioners which combine long ranges of motion with exceptional linearity, orthogonality, and stability. Our in-house CNC machining centers provide complete control of mechanical assembly production and allow Mad City Labs to design and fabricate custom systems with minimal engineering costs and short lead times. We deliver the tools for nanotechnology in 30 to 45 days and provide the highest level of customer service and satisfaction in the industry. We provide innovative and practical solutions for today’s demanding biotechnology and nanotechnology applications. Applications for nanopositioners include super resolution microscopy, high speed confocal imaging, AFM, NSOM, scanning probe microscopy, fiber positioning, single molecule spectroscopy, single molecule/particle tracking, high resolution optical alignment, SR optical microscopy, sub-diffraction limit microscopy, nanoscopy and lithography.
HOT PRODUCTS
The MMP-UHV50 is an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) compatible micropositioning system designed for high-precision positioning in demanding environments.
The Nano-ZL-IX5 series are advanced Z-axis nanopositioning systems specifically designed for compatibility with Evident Scientific IX85 and FLUOVIEW™ inverted microscopes.
The newly enhanced MPP Series has been updated to include 25mm and 50mm travel ranges and includes the ability to mix and match travel ranges to create multi-axis positioning systems with ease.
The MadAFM sample scanning atomic force microscope is powered by industry-leading closed-loop nanopositioners to ensure high-resolution performance, true decoupled motion, and virtually undetectable out-of-plane motion.
Mad City Labs offers a complete product line of high precision piezo nanopositioners, micropositioners, single molecule microscopes, and atomic force microscopes (AFM).
The MadAFM atomic force microscope is designed for ease of use and simple installation and equipped with industry-leading closed-loop nanopositioners for precision movement of the sample and probe.
The QS-PLL is an atomic force microscope (AFM) controller designed for use with resonant probes, such as tuning forks, and Mad City Labs nanopositioners and micropositioners. The controller integrates motion control and phase lock loop (PLL) control thus streamlining the hardware interface.
The Nano-Man5 is a five-axis piezo nanopositioning system with closed loop feedback control for absolute position measurement. The compact design makes it easy to integrate into existing instrumentation. The Nano-Man5 is designed for alignment applications that require three linear axes combined with tip/tilt capabilities. The included position sensors ensure picometer and nanoradian accuracy under closed loop control.
