Vibration Isolation Workstation with Ultra-Low Natural Frequencies

The MK26 vibration isolation workstation for ultra-low natural frequency applications utilizes Minus K negative-stiffness vibration isolators. The isolator uses a stiff spring and a negative-stiffness mechanism to achieve a low net vertical stiffness without affecting the static load supporting capability. Horizontal isolation is provided by beam columns connected in series with the vertical-motion isolator. Adjusted to a 1/2-Hz natural frequency, the workstation achieves 93% isolation efficiency at 2 Hz, 99% at 5 Hz, and 99.7% at 10 Hz. The workstation can be configured for various applications where disturbances from external vibrations can affect the operation of sensitive equipment. Customization options include guard rails, padded armrests, overhead equipment shelves, monitor stands and more.
