(CleanBench) Isolation Lab Tables

A unique table top design combines the best features of TMC's CleanTop^® steel honeycomb with an ultra-stiff, damped, layered platform.

Greater stability, especially for small size tables. The low profile, high density tops lower the overall floating center-of-mass ensuring inherent stability, even for relatively top-heavy payloads.

Guided thread lead-ins to align screws with tapped holes. The "bevel" shape eases engagement of the first thread.

Ergonomically optimized for the seated user by minimizing the thickness of the table top.

Structural damping determines how quickly an excited resonance in a table top decays. The simplest way to measure damping is to hit the table top with a hammer and measure the decay with an accelerometer and oscilloscope, or spectrum analyzer. The height of a resonance peak in the 'compliance curve' also measures damping.

Available for both Faraday cage and non-Faraday cage applications. Adjustable leather forearm rests fasten to the Front Support Bar or Perimeter Enclosure and can slide from side to side for added comfort. Sold in sets of two pads.

Sliding shelves are made of wood with white plastic laminate covering all sides. Available in 6, 10, 14 and 20" widths. A metal bracket on the front edge of the shelf fits into the slot in the front support bar. Shelves slide freely from side to side and are easily lifted from the support bars. Builtin stops prevent shelves from sliding out of slots.

A set of four retractable casters with a total weight capacity of 1,000 lb (450 kg) can be mounted to the base of the table legs. Fits all tables.

A fixed, welded-steel structure that completely surrounds the table top to provide non-isolated support for the Faraday Cage and the sliding side shelf. Only accepts 8" wide Sliding Side Shelf.

Type II Faraday Cage

The Type II Faraday Cage offers improved access and simplified assembly. The “window-shade” type retracting front panel is easy to operate and causes reduced disturbance when adjusted. The front panel may be positioned anywhere between fully opened and fully closed, and stays in position without a fastener.

The Type II Faraday cage requires the full-perimeter enclosure to mount to the Cleanbench Series table and is only available as a table-mounted version.

An 8" wide shelf that slides freely from side to side within the Faraday cage enclosure.

Until recently, TMC Faraday Cages were only available as part of a complete vibration isolation table system. Cages required a perimeter enclosure and could not be assembled without a TMC table as its base. Now, the same 40 inch tall cages are available with a baseplate which allows the cage to be used on a bench-top without a corresponding table. The base of the cage houses a reinforced stainless steel plate which can support a compact vibration isolation system, microscope, or other instrument.
