Vibration Isolators & Rigid Supports

The primary goal of designing vibration isolators is to lower the natural frequency of the isolators as low as possible, to reduce ambient vibrations in buildings, before the vibrations can reach and disturb an optical tabletop.

We offer two types of optical table supports:  pneumatic isolators and rigid non-isolators.  Our pneumatic isolators provide the industry leading vibration isolation performance and exceptional damping via the dual-chamber design. to effectively reduce floor vibrations and provide damping.  Rigid isolator is used for equipment requiring no vibration isolation and rigid platforms.  The table supports are Self-Standing configuration. 4, 6 or 8 self-standing supports can be installed according to equipment specifications and dimensions of a tabletop.

Pneumatic isolator Supports

Dual Chamber Design
We pneumatic vibration isolators consist of the two chambers that are uniquely designed, developed to follow its natural frequency.

Exceptional Vibration Isolation Performance
The size of an air chamber is optimized and sealed with an ultra-soft rolling diaphragm and a piston, softening the stiffness to further improve the vertical vibration isolation performance.  A gimbal support of the pneumatic isolator as a mechanical filter system acts as a gimbal to minimize friction and reduce horizontal displacements.

Superior Damping
The second chamber is a damping chamber which is linked with the air chamber through an orifice.  As the air chamber creates the restoring force, the air flows into the damping chamber, and the orifice dissipate the energy in the air, damping the system and improves stability.  As the piston moves up and down, air is forced to move through this orifice producing a damping force on the payload.  This type of damping is very strong for large displacements of the piston and less for small displacements.  This allows for fast settling of the payload without compromising small amplitude vibration isolation performance.  The orifice installed between the air chamber and the damping chamber quickly restricts the movement of the optical tabletop or the external force applied to the optical tabletop.

Automatic Leveling – Leveling Valves
The high-performance leveling valves automatically re-level a tabletop, offering a wide range of valves options starting from the standard valves with repeatability of ±1.0mm to the precision valves with repeatability of ± 0.05mm.  If the settling time, leveling accuracy and leveling repeatability are required to meet equipment specifications, then the precision leveling vales must be selected.

Variable isolator sizes
We offer a variety of pneumatic isolators with load capacities ranging from 200 to 3000 kg. We substantially study customers’ equipment and take their opinions into account to provide the right isolators to support the weight of customers’ equipment on the table.

Rigid Supports

Individual rigid supports provide high load capacities at affordable price. Rubber pads of the rigid supports offer basic vibration isolation where customers’ applications are not sensitive to vibrations.
