The PIglide Flat Pad Circular air bearing series is suitable for applications that require friction-free, accurate linear or planar motion. The modular concept of these air bearings allows the user to build their own motion system. Several bearings can be combined to increase the load capacity or to create multi-axis motion platforms.

For setting up positioning, scanning, metrology, inspection, and calibration systems.

Thanks to the friction-free motion, no particles are formed, which makes PIglide stages ideal for cleanroom applications.
