Dual Stiffness Isolation Mount suits moving load applications.

Kinetic Systems, Inc.    Boston, MA 02131
Jun 19, 2013 Offering alternative to active vibration isolation systems, Vibralevel DSM provides both active damping and vibration isolation. Unit eliminates platform tilt by activating stiff mode when load undergoes aggressive move. On signal from machine controller, mount transitions from softer vibration isolation system to stiffer support platform within 500 ms. When move is complete, system reverts to soft mode, providing vibration isolation required for accurate placement or inspection.

Optical Table Isolator uses negative-stiffness technology.

May 27, 2011 Offered with up to 4 x 8 ft table and gross load capacities to 2,000 lb, MK52 optical table isolation support system may be used where external vibrations adversely affect operation of sensitive equipment. Horizontal isolation is provided by beam columns connected in series with vertical-motion isolator. When adjusted to ½ Hz natural frequency, system achieves 93% isolation efficiency at 2 Hz, 99% at 5 Hz, and 99.7% at 10 Hz. Tables are constructed with plated-steel honeycomb core.

Vibration Isolation Stands have internal pendulum design.

Kinetic Systems, Inc.    Boston, MA 02131
Feb 19, 2008 Featuring Minus K® stiff spring and negative-stiffness mechanism, Model MK26 achieves low net vertical stiffness while supporting static loads. Adjusted to ½ Hz natural frequency, ergonomic workstation achieves 93% isolation efficiency at 2 Hz, 99% at 5 Hz, and 99.7% at 10 Hz. Class 100 cleanroom compatible with optional Class 10 compatibility, unit is available with 30 x 36 and 36 x 48 in. tabletop sizes that feature either lightweight honeycomb or composite construction.

Vibration Surveys assess sensitive equipment needs.

Kinetic Systems, Inc.    Boston, MA 02131
Oct 01, 2007 Conducted by Kinetic Systems engineers, on-site surveys ascertain potentially damaging vibration amplitudes and frequencies in new buildings or existing facilities to determine whether or not vibration control is required. Tools measure vertical and horizontal vibrations over required frequency range and average data over time. Further analysis takes into account weights, footprints, centers of gravity, and expected uses of devices to be protected as well as max allowable vibration.
