Nelson Air Corp.
Linear Bearing/Linear SlideExtended travel air bearings are ideal for high speed, high accuracy, lightly loaded applications. Unlike other long travel air bearings, the bearing slide is supported only on the ends (similar to a gantry) reducing the requirements for expensive precision support surfaces. Inherently frictionless air bearings eliminate heat generation due to friction, reducing "warm-up" time and thermal errors. These bearings are ideal for integration with linear motors and optical encoders for a total... (read more)

ABS028-11-025A Air-Bearing Positioning StageThe ABS028-11-025A linear positioning stage provides extremely smooth motion for applications that are sensitive to vibration and velocity ripple. The moving slide is lightweight and allows for high accelerations with limited impact to the system. Air-bearing designs do not have the acceleration limitations of their mechanical counterparts where balls and rollers can slide instead of roll at high accelerations. The granite base is a thermally stable platform that is manufactured to precise tolerances... (read more)
