Optical Table

What is an Optical Table?

A Pallet Press (often referred to as a Pellet Press in laboratory settings) is a high-pressure machine designed to compact loose, powdered materials into solid, uniform pellets or "bricks."

Using a combination of hydraulic force and precision-engineered die sets, the press exerts thousands of pounds of pressure to bind particles together. This is essential when you need a sample to have a specific density, shape, or structural integrity for testing and analysis.

Key Features

Honeycomb Core Technology: The inside of our tables features a steel honeycomb structure, providing an incredible stiffness-to-weight ratio that prevents the surface from bending or warping.
Advanced Vibration Damping: Available with active or passive damping systems that "soak up" environmental noise and vibrations before they reach your experiment.
High-Grade Stainless Steel Top: The surface is made from ferromagnetic stainless steel, which is rust-resistant and allows for the easy use of magnetic mounts.
Precision Mounting Grid: Features a standardized grid of M6 or 1/4-20 threaded mounting holes, allowing you to bolt down optical components with absolute security.
Planar Accuracy: Every table is polished to extreme flatness, ensuring that long-range laser paths stay perfectly straight across the entire surface.

Applications

Laser & Photonics Research: Keeping beam paths aligned across multiple mirrors and lenses.
Holography: Ensuring zero movement during long-exposure 3D imaging.
Microscopy (AFM/SEM): Isolating high-magnification scopes from floor vibrations that would blur the image.
Fiber Optics Testing: Aligning microscopic fibers for data transmission experiments.
Semiconductor Inspection: Checking microchips for defects where even a tiny shake would ruin the scan.

Why choose Vacuum Lab Technologies?

Custom Dimensions & Shapes: We don’t just offer "standard" sizes. We can manufacture tables and breadboards to fit into specific room layouts or integrate directly into your existing machinery.
Bangalore-Based Engineering: High-end optical tables are heavy and expensive to ship internationally. By manufacturing in Bangalore, we save you significant shipping costs and provide much faster delivery times.
On-Site Installation & Leveling: A table is only effective if it is perfectly leveled. Our team handles the heavy lifting and precise leveling at your facility to ensure peak performance from day one.
Comprehensive Support: From helping you choose the right damping level (active vs. passive) to providing custom breadboards for smaller setups, you get direct access to our technical experts.
