When you require high and consistent acceleration, these linear air slides provide all the benefits of frictionless motion. They can also be stacked and include mounts for encoders and non-contact linear motors.
Our engineers can guide you on the right component for your application.
Air bearings are tested by our expert measurement team.
Solutions designed for your application.
Whether your challenge is precision, speed or environment, we can offer unmatched experience.
Dovetail Air Slides combine an accurate guide with an Air Slide ready fit for installation. Compared with End Supported Air Slides, the Dovetail Air Slides feature a constant support configuration, whereby the stage wraps around the sides but not underneath the guide rail, thus offering heavier load carrying capacity. Continually supported linear slides allow for high acceleration and zero hysteresis, delivering exceptional stiffness and damping.
The continual support configuration prevents guide bar sag, which can occur over a long span. The Dovetails also feature the lowest profile track, making them an ideal fit for space conscious linear motion applications. All of our Dovetail Air Slides are easily retrofitted to your current system and feature mounting points for your choice of encoders and non-contact linear motors.
