Integrity VCS Optical Table System Overview

Learn about the features, performance, and compatible accessories of our innovative Integrity VCS optical table and support system.

Integrity VCS Optical Table System Installation

Learn about how to install your new Integrity VCS optical table and support system.

Integrity 1 VCS Table Top with Broadband Damping

The optical table tops in Integrity 1 VCS system feature a 3.4 mm thick optical table skin, a constrained layer core, damped working surface and composite edge finish to provide broadband damping. Integrity 1 VCS systems are ideal for teaching labs and non-interferometric applications, such as communications using fiber or basic optical demonstrations. The compliance curve shows the positional motion of the structure for a given excitation force and frequency. The red line is the rigid body line showing how an ideal optical table would perform with no relative motion.  The blue line shows the natural frequencies of the optical table and how they these deviate from that of a rigid body.

Robust and Flexible Pneumatic Isolated Frame Support

The Integrity VCS optical table system features a sturdy and multi-functional support frame that is designed to maximize utility, minimize space occupied and optimize structural rigidity. The support legs feature pneumatic isolators to passively absorb vibrations from the optical table's environment. The frame features leveling feet, and optional INT-C casters can be added for easy transportation of the system. A wide variety of accessories are compatible with the Integrity VCS frame and can be used to customize your optical table system.

High Performance Pneumatic Vibration Isolators

The pneumatic vibration isolators in the supporting frame feature our patented Stabilizer™ hybrid chamber design which consists of a small size initial chamber and a second damping chamber connected by a laminar flow disk. Because the initial chamber is reduced dramatically in size, it forces the isolator to use the second chamber as part of the compliance volume, which greatly increases the compliance volume for a given package size, and greatly lowers the natural frequency. Besides, our exclusive incorporation of the laminar flow damping element creates better linkage between piston motion and damping chamber air flow, which generates a higher damping force for a given piston displacement for faster, more efficient damping. It also lowers the amplification at resonance and improves isolation bandwidth and settling time. The vibration isolation performance is characterized by transmissibility curve which shows the mechanical filtering properties for the isolator leg - how much floor vibration will be transmitted through the leg to the table top.

Super Rigid Trussed Honeycomb Core Design

The honeycomb core in our optical tables is different than our competitors. Each piece of the corrugated honeycomb steel sheet is emerged in proprietary elastomeric vibration absorbing materials and bonded vertically throughout the height of the optical breadboard or optical table, creating a much stiffer honeycomb core structure. This labor intensive procedure makes sure that Newport's optical breadboard or optical table has the most robust honeycomb structures.

Vertically Bonded Triple Core Interface

Our optical tables are vertically bonded along the height of the honeycomb core. Most other manufacturers forego this extra step because of added expense and time required to apply adhesive to each individual core member. Vertical bonding adds constrained layer damping effects into the core, while maximizing the table’s rigidity-to-weight ratio. The trussed core design enables a triple core interface at each honeycomb cell. Whereas open core designs only have two structural members at each interface, the Newport table has three offering a 50% increase in local rigidity. The three sheets are fully bonded for the full table height producing greater stiffness.

Individually Sealed Mounting Holes

The optical tables used in Integrity VCS systems feature individually sealed mounting holes. Those mounting holes feature 19 mm screw depth and in contrast to some of the other products in the market that has channel for a row of holes or just a polymeric film, Newport's individually sealed holes are more reliable and easier to clean. This is because we believe in the integrity of the product - especially the core. When dust and liquids go into your optical breadboard and table, it may have a long term effect on the damping performance of the product and make the product degrade over time. A good quality breadboard and table lasts long time - tens of years and more. It's a good investment for a product with sealed mounting holes.

Optical Table System Accessories

We offer a compete set of optical table system accessories to free up space on your optical table or enclose a table top experiment of application.  Accessories include:

Custom Integrity VCS Designs

We offer numerous custom options like all stainless steel Integrity VCS systems, or custom access and mounting holes in the Integrity VCS frame. Newport has a dedicated custom design team for your custom needs. This team has been working with various types of materials, shapes, structures, hole patterns, and more for over 40 years, and has served customers across the world in research, aerospace, semiconductor and medical related fields.
