Minus K manufactures passive vibration isolation systems (table-top platforms, workstations, floor platforms, custom systems) for AFMs, SPMs, SEMs, TEMs, metrology, micro-hardness testers, lasers/optics. Requiring no air or electricity & vacuum adaptable. Minus K has been selected to create custom low frequency vibration isolators for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) ground testing at NASA's Johnson Space center.
At just 2-1/2 inches in height, while isolating vibrations as low as 1 hertz, the new completely-passive Negative-Stiffness tabletop vibration isolation platform – developed by Minus K Technology – provides the industry’s thinnest low-height, low-frequency isolator for optimizing space in critical microscopy and laboratory applications.

Celebrating its 25th year in business Minus K Technology, Inc. is giving away $20,000* worth of patented vibration isolators to colleges within the United States.
New LC-4 isolator can be combined into multi-isolator systems to support heavier payloads while taking up very little room, and using no air or electricity.
Italy's National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) has installed Minus K Technology's "Negative-Stiffness" Vibration Isolators within their detector that is looking for neutrinoless double-beta decay and other rare events such as dark matter axions or weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs).
