The Nanosurf TS-150 is an active vibration isolation system that uses feedback-controlled piezoelectric actuators to actively cancel incoming floor vibrations, providing superior isolation performance compared to passive pneumatic tables in challenging environments.

Active isolation principle:
– Inertial sensors detect incoming vibration
– Piezoelectric actuators generate equal and opposite motion
– Closed-loop feedback: bandwidth DC to 100 Hz; active cancellation at all frequencies above 0.5 Hz
– Passive isolation above 100 Hz from residual mechanical stiffness

Performance comparison vs. passive table:
– Below 10 Hz: active system provides 20-30 dB more attenuation than passive 2 Hz table
– Critical range 1-10 Hz: where most building vibrations from HVAC, footsteps, and elevators occur
– Enables AFM imaging on wooden floors, elevated labs, and buildings with continuous foot traffic

Design:
– Payload: up to 150 kg
– Platform: 60×60 cm; self-leveling
– Power: 110-240 V; no compressed air required
– Controller: standalone; no PC required for operation
– Compatible: all Nanosurf AFM systems (NaioAFM, CoreAFM, FlexAFM, DriveAFM)

Applications: AFM imaging on upper floors, buildings without quiet zones, adjacent to high-vibration equipment, and in vehicle or ship-mounted labs.

NewRoad provides Nanosurf TS-150 in Israel for labs where passive isolation is insufficient.
