About ingeniqs

Air bearings operate on the principle of using a thin film of air to separate two surfaces, allowing objects to float with minimal friction. They consist of a flat surface or a bearing pad that incorporates tiny pores or orifices through which compressed air is supplied. This air pressure forms a cushion between the bearing surface and the object it supports, creating a near-frictionless environment. The absence of physical contact between surfaces eliminates wear and provides exceptionally smooth and precise motion.
