High Precision Air Bearing Pads | Non-Contact Air Caster | TAOMSUN

TAOMSUN supplies premium non-contact air bearing pads (air casters) for ultra-precision applications. Using porous media or orifice restrictors, they create a micro-air film ensuring zero friction, high static rigidity, and no mechanical wear. Available in standard round (25-200mm) and rectangular sizes with load capacities up to 11,474 N. Ideal for CMM machines, roundness testers, and semiconductor equipment. Custom sizes and specifications available per drawing.

High Precision Air Bearing Pads: Frictionless Support for Ultra-Precision Applications

Supplier:TAOMSUN ｜Overseas Tech Support:METICULAB (Korea) ｜ISO-certifiedManufacturing Partners

In ultra-precision measurement and high-end manufacturing, traditional mechanical guideways often suffer from friction, stick-slip, and micro-vibrations. Air bearing pads (air casters) solve this by creating a micro-air film between the pad and the working surface, enabling true "non-contact" support. TAOMSUN offers premium air bearing pads engineered for zero friction, high rigidity, and long-term stability.

1. Core Technical Advantages

• Non-Contact & Zero Wear:Frictionless operation eliminates mechanical wear, providing a semi-permanent lifespan with extremely low noise and vibration.
• High Rigidity & Load Capacity:The air film provides high static rigidity, ensuring stable support for heavy loads and precision machining.
• Easy Installation:Equipped with spherical hinge supports, allowing easy leveling and adjustment on complex surfaces.
• Customizable:Available with either orifice restrictors or porous media. Standard round/rectangular sizes, or fully customized per drawing.

2. Standard Specifications

Model / Part No.	Type	Size Range (mm)	Load Capacity (N)	Stiffness (N/μm)
MTL-AB-R	Round Pad	Diameter 25 ~ 200	76 ~ 6705	19.2 ~ 904.6
MTL-AB-S	Rectangular Pad	24×12 ~ 300×150	45 ~ 11474	5.7 ~ 1075.2

Operating Conditions:Supply pressure should be maintained at0.5 - 0.7 MPa. Air quality must be clean (filtration ≥ 1.0 micron, ISO 8573-1 Class 1) and dry (dew point ISO 8573-1 Class 3).

3. Main Applications

🔬 Precision Measuring Instruments:Used as core components in Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM), roundness testers, and contour meters. Eliminates friction errors for higher measurement accuracy.

🚀 Semiconductor & Aerospace:Provides clean, vibration-free, and oil-free support for ultra-precision machine tools, wafer handling equipment, and aerospace testing platforms.
