The Q-Box is a unique vibration solution that reduces both sound and structural vibrations. It features a unique adjustable elastomer suspension system which is optimal for atomic force microscopes.
Isolates AFM from structural and sound vibrations.
Unique design incorporates elastomer cords that are easily leveled
Fabricated from rugged HDPE
Structural Vibrations
Inside the Q-Box, the AFM rests on a platform that is suspended with elastomer cords. The platform is leveled with adjusters at the top of each of the four elastomer cords. This method for reducing vibration is historically considered the best approach, better, than passive and active vibration tables.
Sound Vibrations
The walls of the Q-Box, fabricated from 3/4” HDPE, are covered with 1” dampening foam. This combination gives reliable sound reduction inside the Q-Box. The HDPE structure is not susceptible to chemical and environmental degradation.
Note: The Q-Box serves as filter of structural and sound vibrations. Best AFM images are always measured in a vibration free environment.
