ST-UT2 Series
Upgradable SmartTable® Optical Tables featuring
IQ® Damping Technology
Features:
• Field upgradeable to ST Series SmartTable performance
• Selectively eliminate torsional and bending table modes
• Damped work surface elminates skin resonance
• Honeycomb cells for a lighter, stiffer table with betterdynamic rigidity
• Triple core interface increases point loading capability
The fully integrated ST Series SmartTable incorporates factory installed IQ dampers. But ifyou are not sure how much damping your application requires or to prepare for potential
changes to your experimental requirements or lab environment, the upgradeable ST-UT2 Series combines Newport's fine tuned damping with IQ damping. ST-UT2 Series SmartTables tables are field upgradeable to ST Series performance. When the IQ dampers are not installed, the ST-UT2 table provides performance equivalent to the RS2000 Series table. As your application requirements become more stringent, the ST-UT2 table can be field upgraded to SmartTable performance levels by installing an IQ-200-UG upgrade kit. There is no need to dismantle your experiment in order to upgrade the table. Once upgraded, the ST-UT will provide a dramatically quieter table surface, resulting in high quality imaging, improved long term stability, faster settling times and the ability to make measurements that previously required the quietest lab environments. The upgraded
ST-UT2 SmartTable also allows users to monitor tabletop vibrations through built in vibration sensors that provide real time feedback on the vibration state of the table.

The iQ damping in the ST-UT2 series dramatically reduces the settling time in an optical table by a factor of 4X
