Workstation
-- Plant Engineering, 3/15/2008
The MK26 workstation achieves low net vertical stiffness without affecting its capability to support static loads with the help of the Minus K stiff spring and negative-stiffness mechanism. When adjusted to ½ Hz natural frequency, the workstation achieves 93% isolation efficiency at 2 Hz, whereas at 5 Hz, it reaches 99% efficiency and at 10 Hz, it achieves 99.7% efficiency. Applications include cell injection, patch clamping, various microscopes and sensor calibration. The workstation is available with two tabletop sizes: 30 x 36 inches and 36 x 48 inches, and it maintains a 650-pound gross load capacity.
