Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the QuiET Active Isolation System by ETEL S.A., designed to cancel vibrations in high-end semiconductor applications. It addresses both stage-born and ground-born vibrations across six degrees of freedom, enhancing process accuracy and reducing settling times.
Specifications
The system features a proprietary low-noise sensor and a fully digital motion control architecture using 1 Gb TransnET. It achieves over 99% accuracy in acceleration feedforward, minimizing energy transfer to the granite level and allowing for a smaller system footprint.
Modular and Scalable Design
The QuiET Series is modular and scalable, utilizing preselected active and passive components. It includes spring elements, Lorentz actuators, and proprietary sensors in a customizable sandwich-based architecture, facilitating field serviceability.
Performance and Integration
ETEL's Forward Integration Strategy includes the QuiET module in advanced motion platforms, providing a single contact point for performance-related issues. This integration simplifies supply chain management and enhances machine performance.
Commissioning Tool
A user-friendly graphical interface supports various stage configurations, offering automatic tuning, system identification, and built-in leveling capabilities.
Application Examples
Examples include different configurations with specific travel ranges, moving masses, overall masses, accelerations, footprints, jitter specifications, and move and settle times, demonstrating the system's versatility.
Conclusion
The QuiET Active Isolation System represents a significant advancement in motion control, offering enhanced performance, modularity, and ease of integration for semiconductor applications.

Innovative Motion Control RECURRING MOTION SYSTEM CHALLENGES KEEP YOUR MACHINE QUIET! A new solution for vibration isolation! If you are looking for an increased level of performance, QuiET has been designed for you! High-end applications deal with tighter and tighter requirements in terms of position stability, vertical jitter, move and settle times, and tracking error. The QuiET Active Isolation System is a new module cancelling both stage-born and ground-born vibrations along 6 Degrees Of Freedom (DOF), preventing them from perturbating the process taking place on top of your motion platform. Thanks to a proprietary low-noise sensor and an homogeneous, fully digital, and deterministic motion control architecture based on 1 Gb TransnET, ETEL reduces move and settle times to unprecedented values. Active Isolation System ETEL S.A. Zone Industrielle 2112 Môtiers Switzerland FORWARD INTEGRATION MOTION SYSTEM [email protected] • www.etel.ch version 4.4 - 03/20 - subject to modifications without previous notice With an acceleration feedforward accuracy reaching higher than 99%, less than 1% of the energy generated by a motion stage movement remains at the granite level! The mass of the granite on the active isolation system can therefore be kept small, which in turn reduces the overall real estate and mass, while processing tools directly benefit from a quieter environment. Most of the time, high-end applications in the semiconductor industry integrate complex equipment set-up, which, in one way or another, is connected to the granite of the motion platform. As such, any vibration at the granite level translates into inaccuracies and longer settling times at the process tool level. Thanks to ETEL’s solution, getting rid of those vibrations has never been done so efficiently! ACTIVE ISOLATION SYSTEM MOTION CONTR
