Products/Services for air bearing
Air bearings use a thin film of pressurized air to support a load. They do not generate friction. Search by Specification | Learn More about Air Bearings
...of bearings and guide mechanisms. Air bearings ride on a thin cushion of air and provide support in only one direction. Ball slides use a bearing system composed of two rows of balls on both sides of the base. Ball spline shafts have ground grooves... Search by Specification | Learn More about Linear Slides and Linear Stages
...of bearing types are used with machine tool spindles. Examples include air, angular contact, ceramic hybrid, hydrostatic, magnetic, roller and tapered roller bearings. Selecting machine tool spindles requires an analysis of performance... Search by Specification | Learn More about Machine Tool Spindles
Air compressors are machines that compress air to higher than atmospheric pressures for delivery to pneumatic or robotic tools, industrial equipment, or direct-use applications. Search by Specification | Learn More about Air Compressors
Air cylinders are pneumatic linear actuators that are driven by a pressure differential in the cylinder's chambers. They may be single-acting (with a spring return) or double-acting. Search by Specification | Learn More about Air Cylinders
...use several types of wheels. V-grooved wheels can ride on tracks or floors and provide superior traction. Flanged track wheels can also ride of tracks, but cannot travel on floors because the flanges mounted on each side of the wheel limit the bearing... Search by Specification | Learn More about Casters
Enclosure air conditioners remove the heat generated by electronic devices from the inside of cabinets or enclosures. They typically use refrigerants and include thermostatic controls to maintain programmed environmental conditions. Search by Specification | Learn More about Enclosure Air Conditioners
Linear bearings are used in applications where a component needs to be moved along a straight line with high accuracy. Search by Specification | Learn More about Linear Bearings
...also ride on tracks, but cannot travel on floors because the flanges mounted on each side of the wheel limit the bearing surface area. Pneumatic wheels are filled with air for better shock absorption and usually consist of a rubber tire on a metal... Search by Specification | Learn More about Wheels
Plain bearings and sleeve bearings (also referred to as bushings or journal bearings) are used to constrain, guide or reduce friction in rotary or linear applications. They function via a sliding action. Search by Specification | Learn More about Plain Bearings and Sleeve Bearings
Bearing isolators are dynamic seals designed to protect bearings from outside contaminants. They are comprised of a rotor (rotating) and stator (stationary) member. Search by Specification | Learn More about Bearing Isolators
Hanger bearings are used as rotational bearings for drive and screw conveyor shafts that are enclosed with a housing or trough. Search by Specification | Learn More about Hanger Bearings
Magnetic bearings use an electromagnet to provide noncontacting, friction-free motion in rotary applications. Search by Specification | Learn More about Magnetic Bearings
Equipment repair services provide in-house or on-site repair and refurbishment services. Learn More about Equipment Repair Services
Hydrostatic bearings and hydrodynamic bearings are fluid film bearings that rely on a film of oil or air to create a clearance between the moving and stationary elements. Learn More about Hydrostatic and Hydrodynamic Bearings

Air Bearing Performance Without Air Bearings!
Steinmeyer announced an innovative, cost effective decoupling arrangement for ball screw drives that enables our standard PMT 160 series stages to achieve breakthrough performance – namely straightness and flatness runout of 50 nanometers or less! And we do it using mechanical cross roller bearings instead of large and expensive air bearings. The decoupling system isolates a... (read more)
