Air Bearing Table Design

Oav air bearings surface design equally distributes the air and pre load over a entire surface area.

Air bearing table design.

Air bearing tables allow your production facility flow to become better especially when it comes to cycle time and the time it takes to do product change over. Planar xy table consists of moving element called forcer which glides on the frictionless air bearings over the special waffle like surface called platen. As a result planar xy table offers greater reliability and performance realized through design simplification and elimination of wear prone components. Outstanding stiffness and maximized performance.

All hovair automotive air bearing tables have a patented starbase design utilizing six heavy duty air bearings that are used to float the table top. The two surfaces do not touch thus avoiding the traditional bearing related problems of friction wear particulates and lubricant handling and offer distinct advantages in precision positioning such as. We offer a line of flat rectangular air bearings designed to meet the non contact requirements at low cost while yielding high performance. New way air bearings 50 mcdonald blvd.
