STACIS III Piezoelectric Active Vibration Cancellation System from TMC

STACIS® III is the most advanced active vibration cancellation system. Employing advanced inertial vibration sensors, sophisticated control algorithms, and state-of-the-art piezoelectric actuators, STACIS cancels vibration in real time by continuously measuring floor activity, then expanding and contracting piezoelectric actuators to filter out floor motion.

Initially designed to isolate precision microlithography, metrology, and inspection equipment in advanced semiconductor factories, STACIS is now the industry standard solution for the most sensitive instruments in noisy environments, including but not limited to semiconductor fabs, failure analysis labs, nanotechnology research, nanofabrication facilities, and materials research.

STACIS III includes a new and improved digital controller, the DC-2020. With a new dual-core processor and Ethernet as well as USB serial ports on the front and rear panels, this new advanced control system provides the user with a modern and easy to use Graphical User Interface (GUI).

With many hundreds of successful installations worldwide, STACIS is the ideal vibration cancellation system for the most vibration-sensitive instruments.
