OAV Air Bearing

Product Details

OAV Air Bearing is committed to providing their customers with the most precise bearing systems available. Advancing technologies have led to major breakthroughs in existing industries and given way to new, emerging markets. These developments have increased the need for precision tools and equipment, fueling the demand for precision bearing systems.   The error motion of bearings with mechanical contact are dominated by the geometric and surface finish errors of their components. OAV Air Bearings however, do not have mechanical contact between elements and benefit from an air-film averaging effect. Furthermore, due to an absence of mechanical contact, the OAV Air Bearing has virtually no friction to generate heat and cause wear.   OAV Air Bearings was founded as a division of Aviation Company. Today, the company is still in owner's hand and under owner management and is located in Princeton, NJ.   Air Bushings Through recent technical advances, Air bearings offer inherent advantages over traditional bearings as well as create opportunity for a much broader range of applications. But OAV Air bearings offer more: integrated Air bearings, Aerospace materials and standardization of product and proven performance in the most demanding applications.   Flat Round Air Bearings  Our Round Design frictionless motion, Flat Round air bearings works on flat, nonporous surfaces such as granite, aluminum, glass, and ceramics We offer a variety of sizes which can easily be used to customize air bearing systems. OAV Vacuum Preloaded Air Bearing provides a combination of air pressure and vacuum; essentially VPL air bearings hold it down while simultaneously lifting from surface. OAV ® Roller Air Bearing Another breakthrough innovation from OAV Air bearings in Air bearing technology. This time an Ultra Precision, Hard install, Fixed location Rotary Air Bearing to replace your conventional bearings.   Thrust Air Bearing and Bushings Our Patent Pending OAV thrust Air Bearing is a breakthrough innovation in Air bearing technology. For the first time, an Air bearing is available that fully integrates and works on 3 way Frictionless surface. OAV Thrust air bearings configurations runs on standards size shafting fix or linear motion while maximize stiff motion and ultra precise with Aerospace quality Titanium.   Air Bearing Guide OAV Profile Rail Guides consists of the next generation OAV Air Bearing and manufactured from Aircraft Quality lightweight linear guides, Box Series, T-Series and U-series.  It is a complete offering of Air Bearing slides in a wide range of styles, sizes and unique features produced for easy retrofitting into existing applications or designing into new applications.   Flat Rectangular We offer a line of Flat rectangular air bearing components designed to meet the non-contact requirements, low-cost, and high performance.
