An Air cylinder that uses a carbon /graphite piston within a glass housing produces precise and repeatable motion during membrane switch testing. A precision low friction cylinder with a piston that slides on a cushion of air is being used to provide reciprocating motion in membrane switch test systems. An Airpel air cylinder, produced […]
“If someone has already worked out all the problems in a particular component and it is now available off the shelf at a reasonable cost, why spend time designing it all over again? Why absorb the cost of setting up to manufacture it yourself? “These questions arose when the members of the engineering team at […]
Airpot announces its new line of adaptable piston and cylinder sets. Constructed using a graphite piston / borosilicate glass cylinder combination in which each piston is selectively matched to fit the cylinder with extremely close clearances. They have unparalleled low friction, responding to forces as low as only a few grams and pressures less than […]
Norwalk, CT. – Airpot Corporation Airpel Division, has introduced the Airpel-AB Air Bearing Actuator that combines air cylinder like linear actuation with zero friction air bearing technology. The Airpel -AB provides “force without friction” which is made possible by a specially shaped stainless steel piston that is precisely fitted to a borosilicate glass cylinder. […]
Airpot Corporation announces a specially designed long length (up to 1 meter) Airpel Anti-Stiction actuator that meets the needs of coordinate measuring machine and other metrology device manufacturers for a low friction counterbalance device to allow smooth movement and precise positioning of the z-axis measuring arm while manipulating the device through its measurement range. Smooth, […]
Airpot® Corporation announces its family of filter/regulator (FFR) products designed specifically for use with their low friction line of Airpel® air cylinders and Airpel –AB® air bearing controlled actuators. Airpot FFR systems offer engineers, designers and manufacturing professionals the precise control, optimal air quality and properly sized components needed to get the most from Airpot’s […]
Tension control in high performance industrial winding equipment used to wind filaments, ultra-thin wire, tape, textiles and cords for many kinds of products achieves new levels of performance in speed and force with the use of zero stiction and friction air bearing technology tensioning devices. For years mechanical systems for tension control such as dancer […]
Super-sensitive grinding and polishing operations with forces controlled to as little as 0.001 pounds or 0.45 grams are now possible and being utilized in industry by customers of Airpot’s Airpel –AB Air Bearing actuators. Many manufacturers with the need for extremely tight control of small incremental movements along with low forces and speeds are discovering […]
