Air caster systems

Load module system

Looking for an efficient way to move heavy loads? The load module system offers a cost-effective solution for transporting heavy loads with ease. This system uses air caster technology to eliminate friction, optimizing internal logistics and increasing safety.

Capacity

1,000 kg to 360,000 kg / 2,200 lbs to 828,000 lbs

Maximum working pressure

4 barg / 60 psi

What Is a Load module system?

A load module system consists of multiple components that work together seamlessly. The system includes the following components:

  • Air casters. Available in Neoprene, Polyurethane or Gap crosser. The right type depends on your specific application and required working pressure (1 to 4 bar). 
  • Support plates. Provide rigidity, supports the load, and distributes air from the hose to the diaphragm. Available in Ultra-Thin, Ultra-Strong, and Ultra-Light versions.
  • Air control unit. Essential for regulating airflow and optimizing air consumption.
  • Distribution hoses. Connects the air control unit to the air casters for even air distribution.
  • Supply hose. Standard length of 10 meters for flexible installation.

Need specific hose lengths? No problem—manifold hoses can be customized to any length.

How it works

Compressed air is supplied to the air control unit via a supply hose. The air control unit then distributes compressed air to the air casters through the distribution hoses.

The secret behind the system’s performance is air caster technology, which uses compressed air to create a thin layer of air between the load and the surface. As a result, friction is completely eliminated.

Advantages

  • Flexibility. Suitable for a wide range of applications and load capacities—from small objects to heavy industrial equipment.
  • Cost-effectiveness. By eliminating friction, wear and tear on floors and equipment is minimized, reducing maintenance costs.
  • Reliability. The system’s robust construction ensures consistent performance.
  • Safety. Controlled movement and precise air caster transport allow even the heaviest loads to be moved safely.
  • Mobility. Can be combined with our flight case/transport box, specifically designed for systems with air casters up to 70 cm (27 inches). This protects the system during storage and transport while keeping it easy to move.

 

Applications

Our standard systems can handle loads of up to 480 tons. The load module system offers a scalable solution for virtually any application. Our solutions are already widely used in industries such as:

  • Warehousing. For smooth and damage-free movement of heavy pallets or machinery.
  • Production lines. Ideal for moving tools, modules, or equipment in dynamic production environments.
  • Industrial applications. Suitable for transporting heavy components in tight or hard-to-reach areas.
