Companies we work with
Challenges
Weight and size
Aircraft, engines, and parts are heavy and difficult to transport.
Sensitivity of equipment
Avionics, satellites, and components are vulnerable to vibration.
Precision
Assembly, maintenance, and installation require exact positioning.
Strict standards
Aerospace technology must meet rigorous quality and safety regulations.
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 work in aerospace?
Air casters eliminate friction by creating a layer of air between the load and the surface, enabling effortless movement with minimal force.
