Tuned Mass Damping - The Most Effective Passive Damping Method

Integrity 3 VCS and Integrity 4 VCS systems feature precision Tuned Mass Damping (TMD) technology to eliminate table resonances. TMD is the most effective method among all known passive damping methods, as it concentrates damping efforts where it's needed at the frequencies of dominant resonance modes. It is widely used in various industries for its efficiency and effectiveness of damping, such as the famous Grand Canyon Skywalk, Taipei 101 Building, and NASA's Ares I rocket. Compared to our top competitor's broadband damping methods which absorbs a moderate amount of vibration energy equally over the broad band, Newport's tuned mass damping method targets at resonances and as a result is much more effective. Our precisely tuned dampers work from as low as 25 Hz and go all the way up to 525 Hz, creating opportunity for optimum damping on larger optical tables, the resonances of which often fall outside of competitor's broadband frequency range.

Integrity 4 VCS Table Top with Broadband and Tuned Damping

Integrity 4 VCS optical table systems feature a RS2000 Series table top with 4.8 mm thick optical table skin, a constrained layer core, damped working surface and composite edge finish to provide broadband damping. Two precision tuned dampers are included to selectively eliminate two fundamental structural table modes and their entire harmonics. Integrity 4 VCS systems are the best value solution for demanding applications such as microscopy, spectroscopy and more. 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.

Compliance curve for a 4 ft x 8 ft x 12 in. (1200 x 2400 x 305 mm) table top.

Robust and Flexible Rigid Support Frame

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 rigid support legs can be upgraded in the field to vibration isolation with the INT-ISL800-KT isolator upgrade kit. 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.

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. Contact Newport today for your custom needs.
