Optical tables and Breadboards

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document details specifications and ordering information for optical tables and accessories, focusing on Honeycomb Table Tops, Breadboards, and Pneumatic Vibration Isolation Systems. These products are designed for precision optical and laser work, offering high rigidity, flatness, and vibration isolation.
Honeycomb Table Tops: These are constructed with a steel honeycomb core and ferromagnetic stainless steel top skin. They feature M6 holes spaced by 25 mm for quick experimental setups, with surface flatness maintained at ±0.1 mm over any 1 m² area. Optional laser ports can be embedded, and they are available in various sizes and thicknesses, with custom options on request.
Honeycomb Breadboards: Similar in structure to the table tops, these breadboards expand the optical table's area. They have a standard ferromagnetic stainless steel top skin with M6 holes, and custom sizes are available upon request.
Pneumatic Vibration Isolation System (1VIS10): Designed for vibration-sensitive equipment, this system features vertical and horizontal resonance frequencies of 1.5 Hz and 1.7 Hz, respectively, and supports a load-bearing capacity of 120 kg per isolator. It requires an air compressor with a working pressure range of 0.5–6 atm.
Ordering Information: Detailed charts provide model numbers and specifications for various sizes and configurations, with non-ferromagnetic and custom options available upon request.
Instrument Shelves: The 1IS series offers off-the-table mounting for instruments like power supplies and oscilloscopes. They are free-standing, adjustable, and do not affect vibration isolation. Models include 1IS200 and 1IS300, with custom sizes available.
Active Vibration Isolation System: The 1TS-140 system provides active vibration isolation starting at 0.7 Hz, with excellent performance across all six vibration modes. It includes a solid board or optional breadboards, with a maximum load of 140 kg and power consumption up to 20W.
Active Vibration Isolation Workstation: This system includes ergonomic features and automatic load compensation, suitable for sensitive equipment like interferometers and scanning microscopes. Custom workstations are available for specific load and size requirements.
Dynamic Vibration Isolation System: The 1TS-AVI200LP system offers superior isolation using inertial feedback, suitable for delicate instruments. It provides excellent stability and can be stacked for enhanced isolation.
Table Connectors and Laser Shelves: These allow for various configurations and provide space-saving solutions for equipment installation, customizable to fit specific needs.
Protective Screens: The 1PS98 series screens protect optical setups from disturbances, featuring a quiet fan and HEPA filter, available in straight and bent models.

There are only the holes you do use. Make “new” holes by yourself. If You need a hole, clear it of the plug with a pencil or any similar item. Seal the no longer needed hole with the self-solidifying plastic mass again. In order to facilitate composition of optical schemes, we pre-set the plastic plugs of two colours, so that they form a coordinate grid with a mesh of 100 mm. pressure to a honeycomb core, using a special epoxy resin. Thickness of the skins depends on the dimensions of the table top. The top skin has a pattern (grid) of M6 holes spaced by 25 mm with ±0.1 mm accuracy. It allows to make very quick experimental setups, and, at the same time, ensures a high level of precision and reproducibility. The surface of the top skin is ground to flatness of ±0.1 mm over any 1 m² area over the entire surface. The bottom skin is coated in a firm decorative coating. Our standard honeycomb core is made of 0.25 mm corrosion-resistant plated sheet steel. A special composition of epoxy resin guarantees adhesion, rigidity, stability and damping corresponding to highest requirements. The side-walls of the table top are made of a special acoustically hollow plastic which damps acoustic vibrations. The side-walls are covered in a decorative black leather substitute. Upon request a Laser Port can be embedded in the table top allowing a laser beam to be let through the table (see the next page). The Honeycomb Table Tops 1HT have been mechanically and acoustically tested by qualified specialists. Honeycomb Table Tops 1HT provide the base on which precision optical and laser work is performed. The table tops have a honeycomb core inside. The table tops meet high requirements for rigidity, flatness, vibration isolation and damping. We work constantly to improve the design, weight and costeffectiveness of the table tops. Standard Honeycomb Tabletop 1HT consists of a 5 mm thick cold-rolled stainless ferromagnetic steel top skin, and 3-6 mm thick bottom skin, both bound under high Base Mounts & Accessories e-mail: [email protected] – Sandwich structure with steel honeycomb core – 5 mm ferromagnetic stainless steel top skin with a pattern of M6 holes spaced by 25 mm – Surface flatness ±0.1 mm over any 1m² area – Laser Port (optional – see the next page)
