OAV(R) VACUUM PRE-LOADED AIR BEARINGS
OAV Vacuum Preloaded Air Bearings work on flat, nonporous surfaces such as granite, aluminum, glass, and ceramics. The round design allows for smooth, frictionless (no contact) motion. OAV offer a variety of sizes easily adapted for custom preloaded air bearings. OAV Vacuum Preloaded Air Bearings combine the use of vacuum and air pressure, creating superior damping. It allows the air bearing to press down while simultaneously being lifted from the surface.
By combining vacuum and air pressure, these bearings offer advantages for many applications across various industries. The vacuum preloaded air bearings can be optimized by adjusting the vacuum and pressure separately, allowing precise control over the fly height and stiffness.
The vacuum preloaded line replaces part of the bearing’s surface area with a dedicated vacuum pressure zone. Fine-tuning of this vacuum/pressure setup achieves superior damping, resulting in the need for only one flat guide surface rather than two.

| Technology | OAV Air Bearings are designed to have no friction and an infinite lifespan., An air bearing is a non-contact frictionless bearing system that uses a thin layer of pressurized gas., The air acts as the lubricant creating an evenly distributed gas film between the surface and the substrate., The result is NO friction- no maintenance- ultra-precision and clean motion with higher stiffness., Air bearings are contaminant-free. Clean environments generate virtually no particulates that can become airborne. This makes them ideal for many cleanroom applications., OAV Air Bearings have high speed nano-precision-superior position accuracy and repeatability as well as no heat generation at high speeds. |
| Accessories | Mounting Screws (See Images), Retaining Plate (See Images) |
| The Brand | Founded in 1964, OAV initially specialized in manufacturing machine components. However, in 2001, the company shifted its focus to the aerospace and defense industries, which ultimately led to securing its position within the precision-bearing industries and other high-sensitive applications. OAV's commitment to frictionless and high-speed precision motion applications resulted in the development of the Thrust Air Bearing and the OAV Roller Air Bearing. In 2013, OAV expanded its product line to include over 1000 frictionless bearing products and components, demonstrating its dedication to serving customers with the utmost quality. Today, OAV is recognized as a leading manufacturer of advanced air-bearing technology and motion systems. Its vast experience with aerospace, military specifications, materials, and top engineers makes its products unmatched in the industry. OAV exports to over 100 different countries around the world. OAV continues to deliver superior products and services to its customers. |
