Maybell designs and manufactures dilution refrigerators for quantum research, offering intuitive, low‑maintenance systems that reach sub‑10 mK temperatures with configurable cooling power up to 1 W at 100 mK. Their modular products—ranging from the affordable Fast Fridge to high‑capacity units—feature maintenance‑free micro‑root blowers, self‑regenerating helium traps, and front‑loading access to enable rapid sample changes and scalable multi‑qubit experiments.

Problem
Quantum research requires dilution refrigerators that can reach millikelvin temperatures, but existing systems are bulky, maintenance‑heavy, and difficult to operate, limiting experimental throughput and scalability.
Solution
Maybell provides a family of dilution refrigerators designed for intuitive use, high reliability, and modular scalability. Their designs eliminate scroll pumps and soldered joints, use maintenance‑free micro‑root blowers, and feature self‑regenerating helium traps, enabling years of operation without service. Front‑opening doors, parallel front‑loading wiring modules, and rapid sample loaders allow experiment changes in minutes rather than days. The product line—from the low‑cost Fast Fridge to the high‑capacity Big Fridge—offers base temperatures below 10 mK, low vibration and electromagnetic noise, and configurable cooling power up to 1 W at 100 mK, supporting dense wiring and large‑scale quantum processors. Compact footprints and modular architecture let labs add more units or expand capacity without major infrastructure changes.
Target Audience
Primary customers are academic quantum physics labs, corporate quantum‑hardware R&D groups, and quantum‑computing startups that need reliable, low‑maintenance dilution refrigeration for multi‑qubit experiments and scalable quantum systems.
Features
- Maintenance‑free micro‑root blowers and welded/metal‑sealed connections eliminate common failure points and reduce downtime
- Front‑opening access and parallel front‑loading wiring inserts enable rapid sample swaps and preparation outside the cryostat
- Self‑regenerating helium traps remove the need for liquid nitrogen or manual cryogen handling
- Scalable designs (Fast Fridge, Fridge, Fridge+, Big Fridge) provide configurable base temperatures (10–30 mK) and cooling power up to 1 W at 100 mK
- High wiring capacity (up to >10,000 flexlines) and large sample volumes (>130 L) support multi‑qubit experiments and parallel workloads
- Integrated vibration isolation, IR absorption, and EM shielding deliver ultra‑quiet environments for improved qubit coherence
- Modular architecture allows networking multiple units for quantum computing clusters and datacenter‑ready operation
