Transmissibility Curves for Vibration Isolation Tables, Platforms, Isolators & Systems Performance:
Based on field testing and user evaluations, the Minus K 1/2-Hz vibration isolation platforms and workstations perform about 10 to 100 times better than high-performance air tables depending on the vibration isolation frequencies. They also perform better than active or electroniccancellation systems. The transmissibility curves, which compare top-performing air tables with the typical Minus K 1/2-Hz performance, are shown below. Minus K isolators (adjusted to 1/2 Hz) achieve 93% isolation efficiency at 2 Hz, 99% at 5 Hz, and 99.7% at 10 Hz. Isolation performance closely follows that of an ideal undamped single DOF system up to about 10 Hz and reaches a floor in the transmissibility curve with some resonances at the higher frequencies. The Minus K curve below is typical for any Minus K 1/2-Hz system, horizontal or vertical. Measured transmissibility curves for some Minus K bench top products are also shown below.
BM-1 Isolator:
The curve below shows the typical vertical 1/2 Hz performance of the BM-1. It offers 10-100 times better performance than typical highperformance air tables.

BM-4 Isolator:
The curve below shows the typical vertical 1/2 Hz performance of the BM-4. It offers 10-100 times better performance than typical highperformance air tables.
BM-6 Isolator:
The curves below demonstrate the better-than-air performance that the BM-6 delivers. Vertically, the BM-6 offers a resonant frequency that is comparable to or better than most air tables. Horizontally, the BM-6 offers much better performance than typical air tables, which can have horizontal frequencies as high as 4-5 Hz.
BM-8 Isolator:
The curve below demonstrates the vertical 1/2 Hz performance of the BM-8. The BM-8 delivers the high performance of our larger isolators in a package only 4.6 inches tall. The horizontal performance of the BM-8 is the same as that of the BM-6.

BM-10 Isolator:
The curve below shows the vertical 1/2 Hz performance of the BM-10. It offers 10-100 times better performance than an air table in a package many times smaller. The horizontal isolation performance of the BM-10 is the same as that of the BM-6.
CM-1 Isolator:
The curve below shows the vertical 1/2 Hz performance of the C M-1. It offers 10-100 times better performance than an air table in a package many times smaller.
