Optimice® System: Smarter Design. Superior Animal Care.
Experience the power of simplicity with the Optimice® System, featuring a unique motor-free carousel design that delivers the highest cage density in the industry—all while maximizing comfort, ergonomics, and performance.
Quiet, Stress-Free Microenvironments
Unlike conventional systems, Optimice® operates completely free of motors, noise, vibration, and ultrasound. This creates a peaceful and stable environment that reduces animal stress and supports reliable, repeatable research outcomes.
Our patented airflow technology continuously directs and filters room air through each cage and rack, channeling it seamlessly into your building’s HVAC exhaust system. As a result, the system produces a smooth, laminar airflow that is ideal for housing, experimentation, and breeding.
Cleaner, Drier, and Healthier Cages
Filtered air gently enters through the front of each cage and exits through the rear, efficiently removing allergens, odors, and excess moisture. This design not only maintains a drier cage environment—which is healthier for the animals—but also ensures superior air quality within the lab.
Because the rack connects directly to the facility’s exhaust system, all cages remain at a negative pressure relative to technicians, protecting personnel from potential airborne contaminants. In addition, there’s no need for motorized, electrical, or electronic components near your lab animals—simplifying operation and reducing maintenance.
Proven Design. Reliable Results.
Since 1997, our innovative pie-shaped cage has been enhancing the well-being of rodents worldwide. Decades of use in research facilities have proven that Animal Care Systems cages deliver consistent, reliable, and trouble-free performance.
When you choose Optimice®, you’re not just improving your facility—you’re investing in better science, improved animal welfare, and long-term operational efficiency.

Ergomice® Mice Cage System
Animal Care Systems Ergomice provides a compact and ergonomic IVC rack system with all the features and benefits of our Optimice IVC system. Ergomice is a lightweight, lower-cost alternative to the Optimice IVC rack, and is available in 50-, 70- or 80-cage capacities.
The Ergomice IVC rack system is based on our patented direct exhaust ventilation technology, free from motors, noise, and vibration. This original technology creates a low-stress, non-variable environment, ideal for housing and breeding research mice and delicate strains.
Animals are fully protected in our cages, and odors and allergens are contained. This most unique mouse rack is trusted by scientists, veterinarians, managers, and technicians worldwide for its proven ability to optimize research while protecting caretakers and providing an ideal microenvironment for the mice.
SMART System
Thermal Comfort With Superior Home Cage Advantage
The SMART System is an IVC rack system that offers 10 heated mouse cage stations with heated comfort under a portion of the cage floor.
The mice thermoneutral zone is between 26 and 34 degrees Celsius; however typical housing rooms are kept between 21 and 26 °C. Cold-stressed mice in any rodent cage develop dramatic changes in physiology, behavior, and immune function and skew experimental results. Robust mice cope by using nesting material, but many mice benefit from having thermal support. Utilize secondary technology using USB ports with each unit.
