Air Bearings
Higher rotation speeds without friction make air bearings ideal for a wide variety of mechanical applications
New Way Air Bearings use a porous carbon media that allow air to flow through it at a controlled rate so that a cushion of air is formed on the face of the media. Parts are suspended on 5 millionths of an inch of air. There is no contact with metal, so there is no wear, particulates, or lubricants.
A vast number of industries are seeing the benefits of air bearings. Markets where precision is the primary requirement have lead the way. These include semiconductor and CMM manufacturing. But as engineers discover the other benefits of air bearings, market-usage is diversified. Today air bearings are being applied in industries as diverse as automotive testing, medical scanning, flat panel display manufacturing, electronic assembly, and many more.
