STACIS® iX SEM-Base™ active vibration cancellation floor platform system is designed for use with scanning electron microscopes (SEMs). SEMs are among the most vibration sensitive tools made, and these precision instruments typically incor­porate an internal vibration isolation system. SEM-Base is compatible with all internal SEM vibration isolation systems.

SEM-Base is a compact, cost-effective alternative to our 65 Series STACIS® 2100 Floor Platform. It incor­porates STACIS technology but has a much smaller footprint and installs easily with minimal tuning. Simply put the SEM on the platform, power up, and you’re done.

With vibration cancellation starting below 1 Hz, SEM-Base features extended stroke piezoelectric actuators and damped, powder-coated steel plates that sandwich four isolators and TMC’s DC 2000 digital controller. The system is only 5.5" tall, measures 35.5" x 44.5", weighs less than 400 pounds, and can support 900 to 2,500 pounds with no soft air suspension.
