For the vast majority of applications the Gimbal Pistonª Isolator provides outstanding horizontal and vertical vibration isolation
as well as excellent damping. However, an increasing number of applications incorporate motorized stages or high aspect
ratio payloads. These benefit from specialized pneumatic isolators, such as CSP¨ and MaxDamp¨, which incorporate
ultra-low horizontal resonant frequency and very aggressive damping.

Gimbal Pistonª

   
spacer
spacerThe Gimbal Pistonª Air Isolator provides outstanding isolation in all directions for even the lowest input levels. It is lightly damped and highly responsive to typical, low-amplitude ambient floor vibrations, yet achieves very high damping for gross transient disturbances, such as sudden load changes or bumping the top plate. The result is that Gimbal Piston Isolators provide superior isolation yet will virtually eliminate any gross disturbance within a few seconds. It can also stabilize isolated systems with relatively high centers of gravity without compromising isolation.

TMC Gimbal Piston Isolator
Benefits
  • Vertical and horizontal vibration isolation starting at 2 Hz
  • Reduces vibration by more than 95% at 10 Hz
  • Virtually free of friction, avoiding rolling friction to static friction transitions
  • Accommodates horizontal displacement by acting as a gimbal
