Crunch Technologies to move into new digs in July

BOULDER — Crunch Technologies, a Boulder-based startup specializing in contract opto-mechanical and ultra-fast optical design, will move into a new production and development facility in July.

The 1,700-square-foot space at 4699 Nautilus Court, Suite 203, will allow the company to add “in-house opto-mechanical fabrication capabilities to the existing design and maintenance services for the ultra-fast laser community,” said Crunch Technologies founder Benjamin Langdon. “Early 2017 will bring new tools for laser users featuring open-source hardware and software. The new open-source tools will give users a truly global and cross-discipline collaborative platform to develop (Internet of Things) instrumentation.”

He said the company also would add a new ultra-fast laser platform based on simplified, modular designs next year.

Langdon launched Crunch Technologies was launched in August 2014 to serve the academic, national-laboratory and basic research markets.

Jason Kruse and Micah Loeb, brokers at The Colorado Group Inc., handled the transaction.
