Let’s explore its core parameters, features, and applications.
Core Parameters of the SDB Pneumatic Vibration Isolator
The SDB model achieves ultra-low vertical and horizontal natural frequencies of 2–3 Hz (load and base dependent). With a system stabilization time under 1.5 seconds and effective tuning in under 0.5 seconds, it ensures minimal downtime. Equipped with a Casby high-precision regulating valve, it offers ±0.01 mm repeat positioning accuracy. It meets VC-C vibration criteria in compliance with ISO-ANSI standards and operates reliably in temperatures from -57 °C to +60 °C.

Unlike conventional isolators, SDB units are designed for adaptive performance. They automatically match system pressure within the 0.3–0.6 MPa range, which allows optimal response regardless of load changes. This makes them suitable for facilities where machine weights and configurations vary frequently.
Automatic Leveling System for High Repeatability
SDB isolators incorporate a dual-mode leveling system—inflation mode for overload compensation and pressure relief mode for underload adjustment. This ensures the platform stays perfectly level, even with load shifts.
