About Eitzenberger
Eitzenberger GmbH develops, produces and distributes air bearings and complete air bearing systems at its company headquarters in Wessobrunn (Upper Bavaria). The product portfolio comprises elementary air bearings (pads), air-bearing multi-axis systems such as cross tables, gantries and X-Y-Z-theta stages, linear axes from miniature to heavy-duty design on granite bases, high-frequency spindles up to 100,000 rpm as well as rotary tables with roundness accuracies down to 20 nanometers. All systems operate friction-free, wear-free and with direct drive. In addition, the company implements special solutions such as fast tools and polygon axes for positioning, measuring and pick-and-place, and provides open-source simulation software. With the EZ-8046 Self-Aligning Unit, Eitzenberger also offers an aerostatic ball bearing unit for high-precision assembly processes. The products are used in ultra-precision technology, micro applications, metrology and automation; internationally, the company is represented, among others, by the sales partner Prolog Optics Ltd. in Israel.
