Moving a satellite can be a delicate process. For Lockheed Martin, moving a satellite into a test chamber that did not have crane access was going to be a nightmare. Luckily, all they had to do was insert AeroGo air caster load modules underneath the support legs. Using the load modules and an air control console, they […]
Today’s manufacturers seek better, more efficient and flexible ways to move goods to maximize safety, reduce costs and streamline the process. Air caster systems have proven to provide a bridge between traditional MHE and the desire for manufacturing flexibility. Read the entire article here.
In our decades of experience, AeroGo has seen more than its fair share of interesting and unusual moves. One of our favorites: a priceless, 77-million-year-old, 6.5-ton dinosaur fossil. On July 20, 2000, fossil hunter Dan Stephenson found one of the most amazing dinosaur discoveries ever: “Leonardo.” Leonardo is a baby Brachylophosaurus (a type of Hadrosaur, […]
Moving a satellite can be a delicate process, especially when it is moving to a test chamber without a crane. The solution? Insert AeroGo air caster load modules underneath the support legs. Read all about it here.
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is an association with a worldwide reputation for documenting and releasing product manufacturing and design standards. Their release relevant to air bearings is called ASME B30.1, the American National Standard for Air Bearings. Manufacturers who meet the ASME B30.1 requirements have made a commitment to follow the rules. […]
Manufacturers have realized that floating equipment and components on air provides benefits in terms of efficiency and accuracy of movement. Read all about it here.
The AeroGo Silverback Transporter/Transfer Cart received an honorable mention at the International Manufacturing Technology Conference product innovation competition on August 9. The innovation awards recognize new and groundbreaking manufacturing technology. AeroGo’s Silverback Transfer Carts/Transporters are radio remote controlled industrial machines which move loads from 50-200 tons. Transfer carts are compact and low profile, designed to […]
Inside NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, the James Webb Space Telescope team completed the environmental portion of vibration testing on the telescope. AeroGo Aero-Drives feature prominently in this process, especially noticeable at the 12 second mark. A shaker table subjects satellites like Webb to the vibration that comes from rocket to ensure […]
Moving 50 to 200 tons on a repetitive basis makes manufacturers look for safe yet relatively inexpensive methods to transport their goods. Read all about it here.
