The effects of vibration are well known to those who use techniques involving manipulation under microscopic control, therefore, it is often necessary to invest in a good anti-vibration table as the first stage when assembling a new electrophysiology rig.

NEW ThorLabs Science Desks & Faraday Cage

Thorlabs offers a series of high-quality, ergonomic and modular workstations that are designed to reduce laboratory vibrations.  Science Desks are available in four sizes with three different anti-vibration profiles (rigid, passive and active).  Breadboards are provided with smooth or pre-drilled finishes.  More details...

Narishige Anti-vibration Platforms & Base Plates

The ITS isolation system provides a stable platform for mounting an upright microscope (supporting all major manufacturers) on a moveable XY stage, while your preparation and manipulators are fixed independently from the microscope.  Narishige also offer a simple anti-vibration base plate (SBP) which is supported by sponge elastic balls.  More details...

Narishige Double Magnet System

The double magnet system provides you with a flexible solution to micromanipulator and/or stage mounting based around the principle of height adjustable double magnet stands and steel plates.  The range also includes an X-Y base suitable for microscope mounting.  More details...
