Hello Jean-Pierre,

we got excellent results with the TS series tables from
http://www.hwlscientific.com/ (no commercial interest) in an environment
where all kinds of passive dumping have failed. You may want to include
these into your evaluation.

Best, jens

Hi,

I'm shopping for an optical table for a new confocal / 2photon
microscope
and  FCS setup and I was wondering what kind of grade I need.
Indeed for the 2 photon microscope that we have here ((the new one is
for
another place) , we have  a TMC 784 series (maximum dry damping) table.
I
saw somewhere that this table is equivalent to the RS 4000 series from
NEWPORT.
So I was wondering if this grade is really necessary for a confocal
microscope and FCS system. Or if  as long as I have pneumatic legs, a
RS2000
or 783 (standard damping) would be fine ?

Thank you in advance,

JP
