When extreme precision is needed in your machine, tool, inspection or transport systems, air bearings are the natural choice.
Magtrol is a leader in the manufacturing of motor testing equipment. They have successfully implemented both radial bearings and air bushings into their test and calibration suite to improve their product quality.
Air bearings represent the next logical step in bearing design. Air bearings in general have a proven track record having been employed in coordinate measuring machines for 20 years
Air bearings can be exploited by mechanical engineers to extend their design capabilities for precision manufacturing systems. Read about some surprising new applications.
Exploiting air bearings in roll-to-roll. Non-contact, almost zero friction, and no static build-up benefits production processes.
How can you shape substrates to your wishes without even touching them. Read how the magic is done.
In roll-to-roll processes for printed electronics, avoiding web contact is critical to reduce damage and contamination. Air bearings deliver contactless, precision control for printing, drying and inspection processes.
