Pneumatic air tables are not meeting customer requirements as well as the more modern technology of negative-stiffness vibration isolation. More than 20 years since its introduction, it has shown ...

For effective vibration isolation, it is desirable to increase the frequency ratio r to a value much larger than sqrt(2) by either reducing the stiffness of the system or increasing its mass. This is ...

and hoses have a comparatively small effect on the performance of the isolation system.) Customers that prefer to make the platform themselves can purchase the design, the SM-1 Minus K ...

Everstill™ is TMC’s latest discovery in advanced floor vibration control. The patented Everstill K-400 is a benchtop active vibration cancellation platform that includes a “serial type ...

[Engineering After Hours] decided to tackle this problem with a simple vibration isolator design. (Video, embedded below.) The first step is to analyse the vibration to get an idea of the ...

Neil Savage describes a selection of products designed for the task. Vibration isolation has always been important for many applications involving photonics, but as group director for vibration ...
