Patented Modal Dampers for Highest Damping Performance
Our precision grade modal damped optical breadboards combine patented modal damping technology and a unique integrated broadband damping design to deliver supreme performance and reliability for the most critical applications. Patented modal damping technology (US 6,598,545) utilizes two pieces of uniquely designed dampers combined using specially chosen elastomers, to dissipate the vibrations evenly, quickly and effectively. The modal dampers are installed as the side panels along all four sides of the breadboard, ensuring superior damping performance. The red curve in the compliance curve shows the superior performance provided by modal damping compared to our scientific grade optical breadboards without modal dampers (shown in light blue).
