What is an Air pallet?

An air pallet is an air caster system integrated into a pallet structure, making the transport of heavy loads effortless. The system uses four air casters to create a thin layer of air beneath the load, eliminating friction.

The dimensions of the pallet and the type of air caster can be fully customized to your specific application.

How does an Air pallet work?

Compressed air is supplied to the four air casters through distribution hoses. This air creates a thin layer between the pallet and the floor, lifting the load and enabling friction-free movement.

Configuration and Additional Options

Drives. Optional motorized movement of the pallet.
Lifting. Pneumatic actuators for raising the load to a working height.

Advantages

High capacity and stability. The four air casters provide a stable and safe transport solution.
Customized configuration. Each air pallet can be fully customized to meet your needs, from dimensions and air caster types to additional features like lifting and drive systems.
Safety. Options such as a dead man’s valve add extra safety measures to prevent accidents and ensure controlled transport.
Efficiency, flexibility, and ease of use. The air pallet enables effortless movement of heavy loads with minimal effort.

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!
