Hummingbird: active vibration isolation technology

The high-tech industry constantly requires improvement of the accuracy of research set-ups and OEM-products. Floor vibrations at low frequencies are often limiting their performance. MECAL now offers a solution to suppress these vibrations significantly.

• Suppression of floor vibrations of at least 30 : 1, see Hummingbird specifications
• Reduction of force disturbances e.g. as a result of machine movement
• Low noise at low frequencies (around 1 Hz) as a result of direct position sensing
• No stiff floor required as a result of voice coil actuation

MECAL is a leading supplier of high-end active vibration isolation technology in the semiconductor and related high-tech industry. With our engineering competences we can deliver customized platforms for research applications and carry out technology design-in for OEM-customers.
