The Newport 930-63 is a vibration damping compound formulated to absorb and dissipate mechanical energy in optical table and breadboard installations. By converting vibrational energy into heat through internal friction, this viscoelastic material reduces vibration transmission from the surrounding environment to mounted optical components, directly improving experimental precision and system stability.
Technical Specifications
The 930-63 is supplied as a viscous liquid or semi-solid paste, enabling application into cavities or as a layer between components. Application methods include spreading, pouring, or injection, depending on optical table geometry and design requirements.
– Key Features
• Viscoelastic damping mechanism that deforms under vibration to dissipate energy
• Reduces external vibration transmission to optical assemblies
• Improves signal-to-noise ratios and experimental resolution
• Enhances stability of sensitive optical setups
• Protects against environmental disturbances in laboratory environments
– Typical Applications
The 930-63 supports high-precision optical work including advanced metrology, interferometry, microscopy, semiconductor inspection, life science research, and quantum experiments. Performance gains are most pronounced in applications where minute vibrations compromise measurement accuracy or data integrity.
– Compatibility & Integration
Designed for Newport optical tables and breadboards as well as comparable laboratory furniture. Integration involves direct application to table surfaces or component interfaces where vibration isolation is required.
