The core value of low-frequency vibration isolators: addressing the "invisible killer" of precision equipment

Low-frequency vibration (0.5-5Hz) is an "invisible killer" in fields such as precision manufacturing and quantum experiments. For instance, during the exposure process of a lithography machine, a 1Hz micro-vibration can lead to a 15% decrease in chip yield; in quantum entanglement measurements, ground vibrations of 0.1Hz may render experimental data invalid.

Low-frequency vibration isolators, through active or passive techniques, reduce equipment vibration amplitude to the nanometer scale, becoming core equipment for ensuring stable operation in high-precision scenarios.

Technical principle of low-frequency vibration isolator: dual defense through frequency misalignment and energy dissipation

The core principle of a low-frequency vibration isolator is "frequency misalignment" - by reducing the natural frequency (fn) of the system, the excitation frequency (f) and fn satisfy f > √2×fn, thereby blocking vibration transmission. For example, if fn=1Hz, the isolation effect on vibrations >1.4Hz is significant.

Passive vibration isolators utilize structures such as air springs and pendulum rods to achieve low natural frequencies. For instance, LeadTop's pendulum rod air-bearing vibration isolator ZDT-B series, through a composite design of air-bearing support and pendulum rod, reduces the vertical natural frequency to 1.0Hz, optimizes the horizontal direction to 1.2Hz, and achieves a vibration isolation efficiency of 92% at 5Hz.

The active vibration isolator monitors vibrations in real-time through sensors and dynamically adjusts damping through the actuation of actuators, further suppressing low-frequency resonance.
