The need for vibration isolation of precision and vibrationsensitive objects is increasing continuously. Vibration isolation systems must comply with contradictory specifications, such as requiring reduced stiffness of isolators for better isolation, but higher stiffness for better performance of the object. Recently, expensive active isolation systems have been used to resolve these contradictions. This article shows that a proposed model for vibration isolation of precision objects together with the use of ‘smart’ constant natural frequency (CNF) isolators substantially widens the application range of inexpensive and reliable passive isolators. Greater and greater precision and a continuing need to minimize production defects call for improved isolation of sensitive machinery from external vibrations. Vibration isolation systems have to comply with contradictory requirements such as stiffness reduction for better isolation and stiffness increase for better performance of an isolated object. Ideal vibration isolation of an object should be based on the dynamic characteristics of the object, its sensitivity to vibrations in all six coordinates, and spectral characteristics of vibration excitations from the floor in all six coordinates. These are rarely attainable, especially for typical production sites or R&D establishments where numerous diverse objects, such as precision production and measuring machines and equipment are installed next to vibration producing objects. Some of those that require vibration isolation are themselves vibration exciters (e.g. microlithography steppers and scanners). Such an ideal approach would be useless for real-life situations anyway. Some reasons for this: 1. Vibration levels at installation sites are changing continuously, since they are caused by random factors (loading and speed of passing trucks/trains, random microseismic vibrations, working regimes of production equipment, etc.).
