The Anti-vibration Balance Bench provides a stable, isolated platform for precision analytical instruments in laboratory environments. Constructed with an all-steel cabinet body featuring 2.0 mm cold-rolled steel plates with epoxy powder coating, the bench delivers exceptional structural rigidity and chemical resistance. The natural black granite countertop—50–80 mm thick—is mounted on adjustable anti-vibration pads to mechanically isolate sensitive instruments from floor-transmitted vibrations and environmental disturbances.
Available in single (900×600×800 mm) or double (1200×600×800 mm) configurations, the modular design allows for disassembly and reassembly with compact packaging for simplified installation in constrained laboratory spaces. The granite surface achieves a flatness tolerance of ≤0.05 mm per 1000 mm and supports a rated load of ≥200 kg. Each unit features adjustable leveling feet and anti-vibration rubber pads for fine-tuning stability on uneven floors. An integrated 10 A multifunctional splash-proof socket provides instrument power at the work surface.
How It Works
The anti-vibration bench operates through mechanical isolation principles to decouple sensitive instruments from environmental vibrations. The three-level shock absorption system combines passive damping elements to attenuate frequencies in the 18-32 Hz range, which encompasses typical building vibrations from HVAC systems, foot traffic, and nearby equipment. The granite countertop provides thermal stability and high mass-to-surface ratio for additional vibration dampening.
Acoustic decoupling between the granite surface and steel frame prevents direct transmission of structural vibrations to the weighing area. The 85-degree shock-absorbing rubber adjustment pads at each support point provide mechanical isolation from floor-transmitted vibrations while allowing for leveling adjustments. Anti-vibration adjustment screws enable fine-tuning of the isolation system to optimize performance for specific instrument requirements and laboratory conditions.

The integrated electrical service and modular design address practical installation and operational requirements specific to analytical laboratory environments.
Practical Tips
Position the bench away from high-traffic areas and HVAC vents to minimize external vibration sources.
Why: Reduces environmental disturbances that can affect weighing precision even with isolation systems.
Allow 30 minutes thermal equilibration after installing instruments on the granite surface before performing calibrations.
Why: Granite thermal mass requires time to stabilize, which affects analytical balance zero stability.
Check adjustment pad condition and re-level the bench quarterly or after any laboratory renovations.
Why: Building settling and floor changes can affect isolation performance over time.
Verify electrical grounding of the integrated socket before connecting analytical instruments.
Why: Proper grounding prevents electrostatic interference that can affect sensitive weighing measurements.
If balance readings show excessive drift, verify all anti-vibration adjustment screws are properly tightened.
Why: Loose isolation hardware can create mechanical instability that manifests as measurement drift.
Document bench leveling settings and adjustment pad positions for reproducible isolation performance.
Why: Enables consistent measurement conditions when relocating or servicing the bench setup.
Clean granite surface with laboratory-appropriate cleaners to maintain chemical resistance properties.
Why: Chemical residues can affect surface properties and potentially contaminate subsequent weighing operations.
Inspect steel frame coating annually for chemical damage and address any corrosion promptly.
Why: Early intervention prevents structural degradation that could compromise isolation performance.
