The rule of thumb “no active-on-active” states that a machine incorporating active vibration isolation (internally) cannot be mounted on a platform using active vibration control. This rule is ...

Integrated with internal passive air isolators, high-resolution instruments may allow the option to add vibration cancelation motors and inertial sensors to transform passive air isolators into active ...

Pacific Biosciences has produced its next generation of long-read, automated genomic sequencers with Single-Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT*) sequencing technology. The Sequel™ system is part of the company ...

The just-released model CT-2 completely-passive tabletop vibration isolation platform, from Minus K Technology, with no air or electric power required, represents the latest state-of-the-art option ...

Cell culturing is a frequently applied technique in biology to carefully grow a particular type of cell. A great deal of care is taken to maintain sterile conditions during the preparation of cell ...

In this interview, Erik Runge, Director of Engineering at Minus K Technology talks to AZoNano about their range of Negative-Stiffness Vibration Isolators and why they are the preferred solution for ...

The resolution of microscopies of all types is limited due to ambient vibration. It reduces the localizability of features in clear and obvious ways — this is a growing issue for the long acquisition ...

The idea is simple: Protect sensitive objects from vibrating floors and foundations. So is the basic vibration-isolation system model, found in most every vibration textbook, and shown in the ...

Helical vibration isolators dampen and dissipate shock and vibrational energy, minimizing shock and vibration in all three axes: compression, shear, and roll. Today, electronic equipment is at the ...

GERB’s involvement in trackbed isolation and the design of its floating trackbed systems was the logical result of earlier activities in other areas of vibration control. The company’s systems consist ...
