Additive Manufacturing/3D Printing
Air Bearings offer nanometer scale precision for the next generation of 3D printing.
The variety of markets taking advantage of the benefits provided by Porous Media™ is expansive and ever growing. Where once our non-contact products were limited to semiconductor manufacture and flat panel transportation, our customers have used their ingenuity, combined with New Way’s in house design team, to expand our products into fields like automotive testing, for true force dynamometry and computed tomography, for faster, quieter CT scans. Air Bearings are building the future with additive manufacturing, ensuring precision through nanometer accurate metrological sensors and providing the foundation for a new generation of medical implants. See what New Way has done for your industry, and if your business is new to Air Bearings, New Way is here to help!
Air Bearings offer nanometer scale precision for the next generation of 3D printing.
New Way Air Bearings® are ideal for materials processing stages across numerous industries.
Noncontact air bearings in the textiles and composites manufacturing sector
Frictionless motion enables rolling wind tunnels and true force dynamometry.
Radial Air Bearings allow for quieter, faster scans and greater patient comfort.
With a combination of positive pressure and applied vacuum, air bearings allow for rapid, precise handling of FPD’s.
Air Bearings allow for flexible web transportation with up to 180 degree bend angle and adjustable fly height.
Zero friction means no overshoot, and the capability to produce implants perfectly fitted to each patient.
Truly repeatable motion offers meteorological instruments motion with virtually no hysteresis error.
High stiffness and damping make air bearings an ideal choice for tooling assemblies.
Cleanroom compatibility and no lubrication make air bearings the perfect fit for semiconductor manufacture and wafer inspection.
The New-Seal™ combines a bearing and a seal into one unit, perfect for rotating applications working off process gases.
