AIR BEARINGS 101

Webcast Live on Tuesday, September 27, 2011 (Now Available On-Demand)

What Frictionless Motion Can Do For You
(And Your Mechanical Engineering Grade)

This webcast is for you if you want to get a jump on your mechanical engineering studies this semester. Why? Because it focuses on a subject you're not likely to hear a lot about in the classroom, but one that can give you a huge advantage moving forward:  Frictionless Motion.

 

AIR BEARINGS 101: NORTH AMERICA

Yes, yes. We know. Frictionless motion is a practical impossibility. But what if you could get really, really close? Imagine the advantage you'll have in the lab with:

  • Zero Friction
  • Zero Wear
  • Straighter, Smoother, Silent Motion
  • Higher Speed Capability
  • Faster Acceleration
  • Higher Damping
  • No Need for Messy Lubrication

Well, you can get all these advantages. And we'll tell you precisely how. On September 27th, renowned precision engineer Drew Devitt will present Air Bearings 101: What Frictionless Motion Can Do For You (And Your Mechanical Engineering Grade). This interactive, one-hour webcast will give you a solid overview of the subject matter, complete with animation and video vignettes which will show you exactly how these precision components can work for you in a broad array of applications in many kinds of environments.

The presentation is entirely non-commercial. We're simply looking to give the next generation of mechanical engineers a solid foundation in frictionless motion fundamentals.

The session will close with a web-based question-and-answer session. At the conclusion of the webcast, Mr. Devitt will continue the Q&A on Facebook for as long as you have questions.
