What it is

The Newport Integrity 1 VCS is a rigid support optical table system with a 3.4 mm thick ferromagnetic stainless steel working surface. The table top incorporates a constrained layer core damping system. Surface flatness is specified as ±0.006 in. over any 2 ft. square area. Mounting holes are individually sealed with non-corrosive polymer cups. An athermalized design contributes to thermal stability.[1][3][2]

How it works

The Integrity 1 VCS uses a trussed honeycomb core design with a vertically bonded triple core interface for increased local rigidity. A constrained layer core, damped working surface, and composite edge finish provide broadband damping. The rigid support legs can be upgraded in the field to pneumatic isolators using an upgrade kit. Mounting holes are individually sealed to prevent contamination of the core.[1][2]

Applications

The Integrity 1 VCS system is intended for teaching laboratories and non-interferometric applications. Example applications include fiber optic communications and basic optical demonstrations.[2]
