SmarAct in cooperation with SEUM Tronics likes to welcome.

SmarAct develops high-performance solutions for handling and positioning in the micro- and nanometer range. The broad product portfolio – from single positioners to complex parallel kinematics, miniaturized robots, and easy-to-use control systems – is completed by sophisticated measuring equipment based on powerful laser interferometers.

SmarAct is located in Oldenburg (Germany) and was founded in 2005 as a spin-off from the University of Oldenburg. In the last 15 years, we have grown to a company with almost 180 employees who cover the complete production process to ensure a high level of product quality including development, construction, mechanical production, electronic production and assembly. We serve high accuracy positioning and metrology applications in research and industry within such fields as optics, life sciences, micro-assembly, semiconductors, and microscopy.

Maintaining the complete production in-house allows a high level of customization so that we can always provide you with the optimal individual or OEM solution.

  • For cryogenic applications where highest precision and thermal stability are essential for successful operation, SmarAct has developed cryogenic positioning stages featuring unmatched closed-loop positioning performance with resolutions well below 1 nm. This makes SmarAct's Closed-Loop Cryogenic Stages ideally suited, for example, in the field of fundamental research including 2D materials science or for cryogenic applications such as low-temperature quantum technologies. The high-performance stages are specifically designed to meet the most demanding requirements that world-changing technologies like quantum computing induce. Materials are selected to match the required thermal properties and prevent mechanical stress during cooling and heating cycles. This ensures long lifetime under cryogenic and ultra-high vacuum conditions. Fully non-magnetic versions are available for use in high magnetic fields.
     SmarActs positioning stages are known for their durability in various and even extreme environments. For the closed-loop cryogenic variants, SmarAct combines its stick-slip piezo drive stages with its high-performance PicoScale sensor heads, which are based on an all-optical Michelson interferometric design. SmarActs Closed-Loop Cryogenic Stages are available with travel ranges from 16 to 49 mm. To fulfill customers' individual requirements, completely customized setups are also possible.
