AVOS ST Advanced Vibration Absorption Systems

Do you have highly precise and very sensitive equipment, such as a microscope, an inspection device, an imaging system or a polishing machine and is the use of an active or passive isolation platform , insufficient? It may be that local/global resonances are degrading the performance of the isolation system, because it is not stiff enough or because perturbation sources are located on the isolated part. In such a case, our Active Damping Devices provide a solution by introducing structural damping into most of the unwanted mechanical resonances. Up to 15% structural damping can be achieved, without any major redesign effort. Compared to passive dampers, the ADD are lighter and not sensitive to changes in the supporting structure dynamics.Structural vibration reduction of isolated machines for performance improvement (microlithography, microscope, chip manufacturing or inspection machines, etc.)

Depending on type, multi-directional dampers can be loaded in every axis. In our standard vibration dampers of the GDZ series two all-metal cushions are installed. Depending on the assembly, these cushions are load with pressure or tension. Vibration dampers of the series 7 have another cushion obstructed which allows them to absorb load in horizontal direction additionally. Because of this, GDZ dampers are perfectly suitable for applications in the fields of plant engineering and rail vehicle construction. Our product range includes three different types of these multi-directional dampers: GDZ series 1 for a fixation with bolts for pressure and tension load GDZ series 5 for a welding fixation for pressure and tension load GDZ series 7 for a fixation with bolts for pressure, tension and horizontal load
