Abstract

An anti-vibration apparatus is equipped with a plurality of active support legs which support an anti-vibration table and which are able to actively operate to control the motion of the anti-vibration table in a horizontal plane. The apparatus is further equipped with a pressure feedback loop for detecting the internal pressure of an air spring provided in each of the plurality of active support legs and for feeding a signal, which is based on the detected internal pressure of the air spring, back to the control system of the anti-vibration apparatus.
