Cleanrooms present unique challenges for moving heavy equipment. To start, all the normal issues associated with material handling apply: how do you move very heavy and often delicate equipment in a cost-effective manner with the least amount of disruption to normal operations? But then, operators in these facilities also have to figure out how to […]
If you’re looking for high maneuverability, safety, and ease of use when it is time to move heavy loads, take a look at air casters. Read the full article here

An AeroGo air caster system was integral to the production of the Orion crew module, slated for launch this month. NASA utilized an AeroGo system of six load modules and a control console embedded into the crew module support structure. Embedding the system provided superior maneuverability to move the crew module through assembly and testing. […]
Hands-on model available during POWERGEN 2013 An interactive hands-on model makes it easy to see how it is possible to move megaton components such as feedwater heaters and casks in nuclear plants in hours instead of days. The model is in the AeroGo booth #3613 in the Nuclear Power International section of POWERGEN 2013. The […]
Air casters make it easy to move heavy machines and equipment without damaging floors. Moving heavy loads on wheeled casters or rollers, either routinely as part of production or just once in a while for maintenance or cleaning, can damage floors. Wheeled casters can wear grooves in concrete and epoxy floors, and moderately heavy loads […]
A detailed presentation and case studies regarding the use of air casters in the aerospace industry will be presented on September 27th, 2013, in the Sanjo Conference Hall at the University of Tokyo. The presentation is part of the Japan technical meeting hosted by the Society for the Advancement of Material and Process Engineering. The […]
Air casters go by many names including air pads, air skates, air skids and air bearings. Air casters are commonly used to lift and move heavy, awkward, delicate or unbalanced loads on a film of compressed air. Air casters have been used in every major industry for over 50 years and have become a proven […]
Air caster transporters have proven efficient and reliable for multi-ton transformer moves. AeroGo continues to simplify adoption of vapor phase drying (vpd) technology for the transformer industry with its specialized line of Transformer Transporters. Proven over the past several years, units in the field have successfully handled capacities over 800 tons. “The unique requirements of […]
AeroGo, Inc. announced increased load capacity and doubled the warranty period for its manufactured urethane and neoprene air casters. The upgrade was the result of repeated in-factory destructive and non-destructive testing, coupled with customer input and field testing after improvements were made in materials and construction methods. “We work to continuously improve air caster function,” […]
