IBS Precision Engineering
IBS Precision Engineering offers the porous New Way Air Bearings. The porous material ensures equal air distribution under the bearing. Porous air bearings exceed orifice bearings as far as bearing capacity, rigidity and air consumption go. Because of zero static friction, infinite resolution and very high repeatability are possible. -
Isotech, Inc.
Isotech offers AB Air Bearings that feature a specially shaped stainless steel piston precisely fitted to a borosilicate glass cylinder. This create a true air bearing airflow effect around the piston. As little as 5 psi applied to the cylinder produces a stiff cushion of air that supports the piston and prevents it from coming in contact with the cylinder wall. The AB Air Bearing provides virtually unlimited piston life, super-clean operation, requires no lubrication, and nearly eliminates friction through the use of ultra-low friction ball joints used to connect the rod.
