A unique facility is devoted to the research and development of novel and pioneering radiation detector technologies at Kansas State University. The Semiconductor Materials and Radiological ...

The idea is simple: Protect sensitive objects from vibrating floors and foundations. So is the basic vibration-isolation system model, found in most every vibration textbook, and shown in the ...

Although air tables have been around for the better part of a half-century, negative-stiffness systems offer new, useful abilities For almost 40 years, pneumatic vibration isolators have been the ...

Used with high-precision equipment like scanning electron microscopes, vibration isolation systems are used to keep samples stationary so they can be examined with a high degree of accuracy and little ...

Erik Runge, Director of Engineering at Minus K Technology, talks to AZoNano about their low-frequency vibration isolation systems. Could you provide our readers with a summary of the history of Minus ...

The rule of thumb “no active-on-active” states that a machine incorporating active vibration isolation (internally) cannot be mounted on a platform using active vibration control. This rule is ...

Large machines typically require attaching their frames or beds to a concrete foundation, often called a reaction or inertia mass. Equipment requiring isolation is ...

Vibration isolation in the playback process of high-end audio systems is crucial. Any external vibration, no matter how slight, even someone walking near the turntable or vibration from floor-mounted ...

GERB’s involvement in trackbed isolation and the design of its floating trackbed systems was the logical result of earlier activities in other areas of vibration control. The company’s systems consist ...
