Optimize material handling
Air casters eliminate friction, providing full freedom of movement. This makes internal transport faster, safer, and more cost-effective than traditional methods.
Application
Material handling
Optimize internal transport with air casters, reducing downtime, damage, and costs. A versatile and efficient alternative to forklifts and roller trucks.
Companies we work with
Challenges
High capacity
Easily moves paper rolls, steel coils, and machinery.
Freedom of movement
Omnidirectional movement, ideal for tight spaces.
Damage prevention
Floating loads protect both materials and infrastructure.
Efficiency and speed
Faster transport minimizes downtime and boosts productivity.
After 20 years of loyal service, it was time for a new modular air caster transport system with an increased capacity of 24 tons. Air casters do not damage the floor and we can position our machines very accurately and with little effort. With an Air caster system we can provide companies that regularly have machines in their factory. moving, recommend using Aerofilm Systems air casters!
How do air casters for material handling work?
Air casters create a thin layer of air between the load and the floor, eliminating friction. This allows smooth, controlled transport, even for extremely heavy loads. The system is easy to operate and requires minimal infrastructure modifications.
Advantages
- High capacity: The systems are designed to handle heavy loads. Whether it’s rolls weighing several hundred pounds or steel coils weighing tons, air cushions provide the solution.
- Freedom of movement: Air casters offer complete freedom of movement in all directions. Because the load floats, there is no direct contact with the floor, preventing wear or scratches.
- Efficiency and speed: Air casters systems make it possible to move loads faster.
- Ease of use: The systems are easy to operate and require minimal training.
- Flexibility: Air caster systems are adaptable to different loads and applications.
Applications
- Transport of paper rolls – Safe and easy movement of heavy rolls, even in tight spaces.
- Movement of steel coils – Protects both the load and the floor during transport.
- Foil and plastic rolls – Damage-free, accurate movement of large film rolls.
- Transport of modules and equipment – Ideal for machines, modules, and production lines.
