ABTech was founded on air-bearing technology, and it’s still at the core of everything we do. From semiconductor to aerospace, our motion systems deliver frictionless movement, nanometer-level accuracy, and unmatched reliability. Air-bearing technology reflects our heritage and our commitment to pushing the limits of engineering innovation.

Precision motion components are the foundation of every engineered system we deliver. From air-bearing rotary tables and linear slides to high-speed spindles, each component is designed for frictionless motion, nanometer-level accuracy, and long-term reliability. These building blocks enable exceptional performance across various applications, including optics, aerospace, semiconductor, and advanced manufacturing.

MicroForm Roundness Gages deliver ultra-precise measurements for roundness, runout, flatness, concentricity, parallelism, and perpendicularity. With capacities up to 6,000 lbs and worktable diameters up to 48", they offer exceptional repeatability. Intuitive software and harmonic analysis make them ideal for both shop floor and QC lab environments.

At ABTech, we specialize in turbine engine assembly systems for high-pressure compressors and turbines. Our platforms feature air-bearing rotary tables and rotary encoders on natural granite bases, ensuring durability and stability. With capacities up to 3,000 lbs, these turnkey systems support aerospace manufacturing, inspection, and MRO applications with unmatched accuracy and reliability.

Our Resource Center is built to support engineers in the research phase of their projects. Explore in-depth blogs on precision motion components and a new three-part series on rotary tables, covering FAQs, air-bearing, hydrostatic, and mechanical variants, plus guidance on customization versus standard options.
