Optical Tables & Isolation

Overview

Newport's honeycomb-core optical tables and isolators set the industry standard for damping and flatness, protecting sensitive experiments from building vibration and acoustic noise. The range spans compact breadboards, workstation tables, active and passive isolation legs, and custom platforms for OEM instruments – matched to the demands of interferometry, microscopy, laser research, and metrology.

Models

• 

  RS4000 Top Performance Optical Tables with Six Precision Tuned Dampers

  The RS4000 Series combines Newport's uniquely rigid trussed honeycomb core with its highest level of tuned damping to produce an ultra-quiet tabletop.

• 

  RS2000 Research Optical Table Tops with Two Precision Tuned Dampers

  The tables require S-2000A isolators or rigid LabLegs for support and do not include active damping.

• 

  Tuned Damped Upgradable SmartTable® Optical Table Tops

  These ST-UT2 Series tables include two precision tuned dampers and can be field-upgraded to SST SmartTable HD active damping performance levels using an upgrade kit.

• 

  Precision Grade 4.8 mm Skin Honeycomb Optical Breadboards with Modal Damping

  The PG Series features a 4.8 mm thick 430 stainless steel working surface for maximum stiffness, a surface flatness of ±0.004 in.

• 

  Solid Aluminum Optical Breadboard Plate

  The breadboards feature a low-reflectance matte black anodized aluminum working surface and a solid 12.7 mm thick aluminum plate construction.

• 

  S-2000A Stabilizer™ Top Performance Pneumatic Vibration Isolators with Automatic Re-Leveling

  The patented self-centering design allows unrestricted piston motion and highly accurate re-leveling after disturbances.

• 

  RL Series LabLegs™ Rigid Optical Table Supports with Tie Bar Flange

  RL Series LabLegs™ rigid optical table support set provides rigid high load support where vibration isolation is not required.

• 

  RL Series LabLegs™ Rigid Optical Table Supports

  RL series rigid optical table supports offer rigid high load support of optical table tops when vibration isolation is not required.

• 

  Optical Table Frame Supports with Pneumatic Isolation

  These multi-functional support frames maximize utility while ensuring structural rigidity.

• 

  4.8 mm Skin Modal Damped Vision IsoStation™ Seated Optical Workstations with Rigid Support Legs

  The workstation features a precision grade modal damped optical breadboard with rigid support legs that are field upgradable to pneumatic isolation.

• 

  Integrity 2 VCS 4.8 mm Skin Optical Tables with Pneumatic Isolation

  The Integrity 2 VCS optical table system features pneumatic isolators, and a 4.8 mm skin optical table without tuned damping.

• 

  Lightweight Extruded Core Optical Breadboards

  Lightweight optical breadboards are designed for applications where damping performance is not critical.
