Experiences in Using Sliding Air Bearings,

Abstract

The article discusses the possibilities of application of pneumatic sliding bearings in various technical areas. The principle and design of those bearings are briefly discussed and measurement of the shifting force depending on the bearing air pressure is described. The guide accuracy in horizontal and vertical directions was measured with the autocollimation method. (Author)
