Low-frequency vibration isolation in six degrees of freedom: the Hummingbird

conference paper
TNO Science and Industry and MECAL have developed a six degree of freedom vibration isolation system that suppresses both floor vibrations and direct forces on a table top. The achieved reduction of transmissibility and compliance is 40 dB between 1 and 50 Hz in vertical direction, and 30 dB between 1 and 20 Hz in horizontal direction. Key elements of the system are a newly designed absolute vibration sensor, and two solutions to the horizontal tilting problem.
