Integrity 4 VCS optical table systems feature a RS2000 Series table top with 4.8 mm thick optical table skin, a constrained layer core, damped working surface and composite edge finish to provide broadband damping. Two precision tuned dampers are included to selectively eliminate two fundamental structural table modes and their entire harmonics. Integrity 4 VCS systems are the best value solution for demanding applications such as microscopy, spectroscopy and more. The compliance curve shows the positional motion of the structure for a given excitation force and frequency. The red line is the rigid body line showing how an ideal optical table would perform with no relative motion.  The blue line shows the natural frequencies of the optical table and how they these deviate from that of a rigid body.

The honeycomb core in our optical tables is different than our competitors. Each piece of the corrugated honeycomb steel sheet is emerged in proprietary elastomeric vibration absorbing materials and bonded vertically throughout the height of the optical breadboard or optical table, creating a much stiffer honeycomb core structure. This labor intensive procedure makes sure that Newport's optical breadboard or optical table has the most robust honeycomb structures.

The optical tables used in Integrity VCS systems feature individually sealed mounting holes. Those mounting holes feature 19 mm screw depth and in contrast to some of the other products in the market that has channel for a row of holes or just a polymeric film, Newport's individually sealed holes are more reliable and easier to clean. This is because we believe in the integrity of the product - especially the core. When dust and liquids go into your optical breadboard and table, it may have a long term effect on the damping performance of the product and make the product degrade over time. A good quality breadboard and table lasts long time - tens of years and more. It's a good investment for a product with sealed mounting holes.

We offer numerous custom options like all stainless steel Integrity VCS systems, or custom access and mounting holes in the Integrity VCS frame. Newport has a dedicated custom design team for your custom needs. This team has been working with various types of materials, shapes, structures, hole patterns, and more for over 40 years, and has served customers across the world in research, aerospace, semiconductor and medical related fields.
