  • Floating a heavy load on air casters makes it possible to use only 4-6 lbs. of force for each 1,000 lbs. of load.
  • Air caster systems can work alongside cranes, forklifts and conveyors to access areas those modes cannot reach
  • Air caster load movement systems keep heavy loads on the ground instead of suspended in the air
  • AeroGo air caster systems are clean, lightweight, easy to use, and are ready to work right out of the box

Answers to Most Asked Air Caster Questions

Do you need a perfectly smooth floor surface?

No, but to operate properly, a smooth, nonporous surface will provide the best performance and life for your air caster equipped products. Usually, a standard concrete warehouse or factory floor provides an adequate surface. Some large cracks and filling expansion joint repairs may be required. Overlay material can provide options for moving over rough surfaces.

Answer

Do you need a lot of compressed air?

The requirements for compressed air are dependent on the weight of the load, the size and number of air casters and whether a standard or Heavy-Duty system is used. Generally, most plant air systems operate at sufficient pressure to operate an AeroGo air caster system. Our systems operate at 25 psi (1.75 kg/cm2), or 50 psi (3.51 kg/cm2) for the Heavy-Duty System.
Answer

Can air casters be used outside or on less than perfect floors?

A standard concrete warehouse or factory floor provides an adequate surface. Some large cracks and filling expansion joint repairs may be required. Overlay material such as sheet metal or a heavy gauge plastic sheet material can provide options for moving over rough surfaces.

    What Our Customers Say

    • “We had to move a very large crate in a very tight area, where forklifts were hard to maneuver. We got bids on similar items but AeroGo had the best setup, price, and customer service. And it was in stock.”

      DETROIT REMAN WEST
    • “We manufacture very heavy products and large in size. Our factory had a thin cement slab floor and ceilings made out of wood beams. Overhead cranes and heavy load forklifts were not an option. So we decided to move our products on air and make them fly!”

      IO DATA
    • “We thoroughly enjoy working with AeroGo. Your engineers are smart, responsive, and creative. Of all the vendors I interface with, AeroGo is at the top of the list.”

      COMPRAS & SERVICIOS, QUERETARO, MEXICO
    • “We needed an alternate to forklift traffic. Needed something easier to move chopper heads. AeroGo’s got a good product.”

      CNH, GRAND ISLAND, NE
    • “System worked far and above expectation. We had to move a 4,000 lb. aluminum chamber. The AeroGo lift system made easy work of moving it from the shipping and receiving dock to the work area through three sets of double doors and then another move to join the chamber with the rest of the tool. All done with only two people.”

      INTEVAC, INC.
    • “For us AeroGo is a great supplier, with an excellent service and high quality products. We can achieve safety and improve the manufacturing development.”

      TECMOLDIN INDUSTRIA DE MATRIZES

      NUCLEAR PLANT MANAGER
    • “It was difficult to move cabinets by overhead crane in shorter time as set up time was higher. Therefore, to improve the movement time we decided to use AeroGo Air Caster.”

      SIEMENS LTD., INDIA

    • “Air casters provided a better long-term cost solution than disassembling/reassembling our structure.”
