Conveyor air bearings are the ideal component for transporting large substrates, such as glass or PET, with a precision unavailable to conventional or orifice-based designs. Substrates are transported on a thin but stiff, layer of air, making no contact with the bearing surface.
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.
The positive air (PA) series is our most fundamental air bar conveying substrates with air pressure, ensuring a non-contact experience.
The transition zone (T) series introduces the use of vacuum to flatten and control the glass utilizing a balance of air pressure and a single groove of vacuum holes.
The high speed (H) series improves upon the T-series through the use of four grooves of vacuum holes. Excellent flattening ability helps maintain control of the glass or PET at high speeds.
The precision zone series offers the highest level of precision for fly height and control range, ideal for inspecting and analyzing specific areas of interest.
