The Advantage of OAV Dovetail Series

Dovetail series profile rail air bearing guides consists of the next generation air bearings and are manufactured from aircraft quality lightweight linear guides. Our Box Series, T-Series , U-series and Dovetail Series air bearing slides are offered in a wide range of styles, sizes and unique features produced for easy retrofitting into existing applications or designing into new applications. ULTRA PRECISION LINEAR MOTION MATTERS

For some applications there is a need to maintain ultra precision even under heavy loads, high speeds and high acceleration. That’s where the Dovetail Series manifests its advantage over other linear air bearing systems. The Dovetail is equipped with non-contact frictionless support on the top and angled frictionless support on the bottom – thus providing a preload and support against torque and loads in all directions.

Each Dovetail is carefully crafted with a level of precision that some think is not even possible. It is no wonder that the Dovetail is used across industries which rely on precision the most such as semiconductor, optics, precision automation, metrology and more. The dovetail series can be oriented in any direction to provide smooth and ultra precise linear motion with ultra high repeatability.
