The Airpel -Air Bearing provides force without friction, which is made possible by a stainless steel piston that is fitted to a borosilicate glass cylinder. The introduction of pressurized air into the air bearing’s cylinder creates a true air bearing airflow effect around the piston.With as little as 5 PSI of air applied to the […]

Piston and cylinder sets offer unmatched capabilities
Airpot has a new line adaptable piston and cylinder sets. Constructed using a graphite piston borosilicate glass cylinder combination in which each piston is selectively matched to fit the cylinder with extremely close clearances. They have low friction, responding to forces as low as only a few grams and pressures less than 0.2 psi. Starting and running […]
Non-stiction cylinders offer precise position sensing
Airpot Corporation has added a position sensing option to its popular line of Airpel non-stiction air cylinder actuators. The company offers non-contact electronic switching sensors from Sick, Inc. using state-of-the-art GMR technology. The addition of GMR sensing technology to the Airpel non-stiction cylinder line offers OEM designers an easy-to-install, secure, and reliable solution. For customers desiring […]
Airpot releases “Accurate Force Pneumatics”
Pneumatic control of force and motion control with unparalleled accuracy and low friction is possible with Airpot’s Accurate Force Pneumatics (AFP) packages. Newly published literature is available to allow design engineers to select and specify the components necessary to design accurate pneumatic force control systems utilizing clean regulated air, proportional pressure control and precise actuation […]
Accurate Force Pneumatics from Airpot
Airpot Corp. has developed a line of products and systems, which excel in applications requiring precise, accurate control of actuation, damping, or displacement. Using high quality pneumatics in conjunction with Airpot’s precision glass cylinder and graphite piston technology, Airpot now offers designers levels of force and motion control unobtainable by other pneumatic means. Even zero […]
